Package: masqmail Version: 0.2.20-1sarge1
starting and stopping masqmail via /etc/init.d/masqmail can leave children alive. The children (which I assume fork from the parent) don't close the port 25 socket so the socket remains bound. You can't restart masqmail at this point: 2006-04-07 16:23:36 [32178] bind: Address already in use /var/log/masqmail # s /etc/init.d/masqmail start [dmorris @ host31] Starting MTA (masqmail): listen/queue. /var/log/masqmail # ps aux | grep masqmail [dmorris @ host31] root 31002 0.0 0.0 1820 376 pts/1 S Apr04 0:00 tail -f masqmail.log mail 2131 0.0 0.0 2096 608 pts/2 S 16:37 0:00 /usr/sbin/masqmail -bd -q50m mail 2132 0.0 0.0 2112 864 pts/2 S 16:37 0:00 /usr/sbin/masqmail -bd -q50m dmorris 2138 0.0 0.0 1632 528 pts/2 S+ 16:37 0:00 grep -E masqmail /var/log/masqmail # s /etc/init.d/masqmail stop [dmorris @ host31] Stopping MTA (masqmail): listen/queue. /var/log/masqmail # ps aux | grep masqmail [dmorris @ host31] root 31002 0.0 0.0 1820 376 pts/1 S Apr04 0:00 tail -f masqmail.log mail 2132 0.0 0.0 2112 864 pts/2 S 16:37 0:00 /usr/sbin/masqmail -bd -q50m dmorris 2155 0.0 0.0 1636 532 pts/2 S+ 16:37 0:00 grep -E masqmail /var/log/masqmail # telnet localhost 25 [dmorris @ host31] Trying 127.0.0.1...
