I had the same problem myself actually. Not to sure if its a issue with Slackware or whatnot. The odd thing is I have used qmail-scanner on a few Slackware boxes and sometimes it works with qscand owning it and sometimes it doesent. I have heard that there were a few Slackware Qmail HOWTOs floating around and until I get my hands on one I have found the only solution is to chmod -R 777 /var/spool/qmailscan. I'd be intrested if any slackware users found a better option since making that dir world write gives me the willies.

Hi,

Sorry, my first reply went to Ryan instead of the list. I'll try it again:

I guess qmail-scanner isn't running as qscand because changing the owner to qscand
didn't work. ps auxf doesn't show qmail-scanner in the list. How can I tell how
qmail-scanner is running?

Here is /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run:
#!/bin/sh
QMAILQUEUE="/var/qmail/bin/qmail-scanner-queue.pl" export QMAILQUEUE
QMAILDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
NOFILESGID=`id -g vpopmail`
MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me`

if [ -z "$QMAILDUID" -o -z "$NOFILESGID" -o -z "$MAXSMTPD" -o -z "$LOCAL" ]; then
echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, MAXSMTPD, or LOCAL is unset in
echo /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run
exit 1
fi

if [ ! -f /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts ]; then
echo "No /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts!"
echo "Refusing to start SMTP listener because it will create an open relay"
exit 1
fi

exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 15000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \
-c "$MAXSMTPD" -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd luke2.bauercom.net \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true 2>&1

Thanks
