Hello all,
To start off, I'm running FreeBSD 4.7, SpamAssassin 3.1.0_5 all on a default install (only args are -d -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid). After I start spamd (via /usr/local/etc/rc.d/sa-spam.sh start), I did a ps -aux and saw the following; root 91555 1.9 0.6 22628 22140 ?? Ss 3:00PM 0:00.78 /usr/local/bin/spamd -c -d -r /var/run/spamd/spamd.pid (suidperl) root 91567 0.0 0.6 22624 22136 ?? S 3:00PM 0:00.01 spamd child (suidperl) root 91568 0.0 0.6 22624 22136 ?? S 3:00PM 0:00.01 spamd child (suidperl) When it runs as root by default, everything seems to work (i.e. no permission errors in the logs, no autolearn=failed/autolearn=unavailable). However, when I invoke -u spamd, I always see autolearn=failed and such. I've reinstalled spamassassin from the ports and I still have this problem. I spent sometime on google/archives and couldn't find the answer. Lastly, I see the following in my logs; Jan 9 15:10:01 sphere spamd[3512]: spamd: setuid to root succeeded Jan 9 15:10:01 sphere spamd[3512]: spamd: still running as root: user not specified with -u, not found, or set to root, falling back to nobody at /usr/local/bin/spamd line 1147, <GEN5> line 4.
