I had the same problem on Solaris. I was following the INSTALL directions verbatim, killed sendmail, started qmail, telnet localhost 25 and got "connection refused". Rebooted the machine and qmail worked. I don't why I had to reboot. But it has worked ever since. BTW, I am starting qmail via inetd, and not using the tcpserver stuff. -Roger > > If you run it from the rc startup script, does tcpserver start correctly? > If it's not running from inetd, it would need to have tcpserver handle > it's connections on port 25. > > HTH, Jason > > On Tue, 3 Jul 2001 at 6:19pm, Moritz Schmitt thought about > > > Hello, > > > > I want to run qmail as my mail server.
