I have configured a second instance of postfix 2.6.6(RHEL6) with postmulti and provided a unique $myhostname for the second instance. I have also provided a different IP address for inet_interfaces for the second instance and restarted the postfix service.
I see both pids running, but the second instance has no smtpd processes and a netstat shows nothing running on the alternate IP address. Why is the second instance not listening? netstat -tulpn | grep 25 tcp 0 0 127.0.0.1:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 26103/master tcp 0 0 10.0.0.248:25 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 26103/master udp 0 0 fe80::250:56ff:fe9c:59:123 :::* 1342/ntpd postfix/postfix-script: the Postfix mail system is running: PID: 26103 postfix-2/postfix-script: the Postfix mail system is running: PID: 26169 /etc/postfix/main.cf inet_interfaces = 10.0.0.248 /etc/postfix-2/main.cf inet_interfaces = 10.0.0.249 postmulti -l -a - - y /etc/postfix postfix-2 - y /etc/postfix-2 Thanks, Asa
