I'm hoping some wizard out there can help with this... I am getting error messages from inetd every 10 minutes. The messages are: Jan 8 20:39:06 alf inetd[141]: imap/tcp: bind: Address already in use Jan 8 20:45:00 alf inetd[141]: imap/tcp: bind: Address already in use I searched around for what this means and on a HP site I found this which seems to describe it: service/ protocol: bind:?Indicates that the service is temporarily unusable because inetd cannot bind the service to the socket. After 10 minutes, inetd tries to bind the socket again. If it is successful, then it will listen for a connection request and provide the appropriate service. If it fails, it will wait another 10 minutes and try again. However, it does not say how I should make it stop. Does anyone have any ideas? This only started when I installed the imap-uw server. (I am running 4.1) Thanks, John To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
