I only know about Exim - http://www.exim.org ;) Seriously though, if you look at /usr/local/etc/rc.d/svscan.sh, you'll probably see that you need to add the following to /etc/rc.conf: svscan_enable="YES" If you do that, you need to edit rc.local and remove that svscan entry. It's my guess, sir. > My rc.conf, inetd.conf, hosts and /usr/local/etc/rc.d/svscan.sh files are attached. They did not get attached, as is protocol on most lists.
