I've just spent the last 5 hours trying to get Qmail to work on my FreeBSD 4.4 server. I killed Sendmail and did a "rm /usr/sbin/sendmail" to remove the symbolic link to mailwrapper. Then I did a "make" then "make install" from within /usr/ports/mail/qmail/ . And even copied my /etc/mail/local-host-names to /var/qmail/control/locals and /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts Though I could get the process running with csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc start &' instead of csh -cf '/var/qmail/rc &' as indicated by all documents I couldn't not get qmail to test successfully. Even after I had modified /etc/inetd.conf and rc.conf and rebooted the server. There is also an issue with INSTALL docs indicate that mail using the "vsm" service would be placed in /var/spool/mail/user but in fact all mail on my default FreeBSD install is in /var/mail/user . Am I completely misunderstanding all this or is this a change since the port was last updated? Also the port installed a user "qnofiles" though all the docs I've read keep referencing "nofiles". Is this a typo or am I once again just missing something? Any help you can provide would be greatly appreciated... -=- Mark Preston Gardner ImpTech - Web Design, Hosting & Computer Tech 13721 Marchant Ave. Sylmar, CA 91342-2650 http://imptech.net mark@imptech.net 818-391-1555 Office To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
