While we're talking about starting cyrus on Red Hat boxes I thought now would be a good time to mention the oddity I found when using Cyrus 2.0.16, Postfix, and Red Hat 6.2 + errata. This behavior is not a problem in Red Hat 7.1 or 7.2. (I was sane enough to never run Red Hat 7.0 on a server.) Because both the postfix and cyrus servers use a "master" process the Red Hat 6.2 init scripts can get somewhat confused when issuing stop and restart. For example /sbin/service cyrus restart has a tendency to stop the postfix 'master' process and the cyrus 'master' process. The work around for my was to symlink cymaster -> master in the cyrus directory then alter the /etc/rc.d/cyrus startup script start and stop cymaster instead of master. Hope it helps someone. -- Regards, Scott Russell ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Linux Technology Center, System Admin, RHCE. T/L 441-9289 / External 919-543-9289 http://bzimage.raleigh.ibm.com/webcam
