From my box (squeeze and postfix): # lsof -i :25 COMMAND PID USER FD TYPE DEVICE SIZE/OFF NODE NAME master 12339 root 12u IPv4 631016 0t0 TCP localhost:smtp (LISTEN) Something is listening to port 25, but it is not postfix. Please run aptitude search ~Pmail-transport-agent~i on your box. If the only result is "postfix" and you can't think of any other software on your machine that might listen to port 25 I would suspect a rootkit :( Kind regards, Andrei -- Offtopic discussions among Debian users and developers: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/d-community-offtopic
