Hi all. I'm working with an issue that has been really driving me crazy. I've searched the archives and not found anything that is really pertaining to my problem, so I'd like to run this by the list and see what I'm missing. First off, configuration: Sendmail 8.13.1/8.14.1 (RHEL4 stock package) Spamassassin 3.2.0 from source At the current time, both spamassassin and sendmail are running as root. Spamd is being executed as follows: SPAMDOPTIONS="-C /etc/mail/spamassassin -D -d -c -m5 -H --socketpath=/var/spool/smf/smf-spamd.sock" ... daemon $NICELEVEL spamd $SPAMDOPTIONS -r $SPAMD_PID The milter configuration in sendmail is as follows: INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`smf-spamd', `S=unix:/var/spool/smf/smf-spamd.sock, T=S:1m;R:1m')
And my problem: When spamd starts up, it opens a socket at /var/spool/smf/smf-spamd.sock (as shown here): # ls -l /var/spool/smf/ srw-rw-rw- 1 root root 0 May 23 12:09 smf-spamd.sock When I connect over that socket manually using spamc, everything works as expected. When I make a connection from another machine on port 25, it waits for about 20-30 seconds before giving the SMTP header, and I get the following in the logs: [EMAIL PROTECTED] mail]# May 23 12:27:59 linuxcp19326 spamd[31071]: prefork: ordered 31074 to accept May 23 12:27:59 linuxcp19326 spamd[31071]: prefork: sysread(7) not ready, wait max 300 secs May 23 12:27:59 linuxcp19326 spamd[31074]: spamd: got connection over /var/spool/smf/smf-spamd.sock May 23 12:27:59 linuxcp19326 spamd[31071]: prefork: child 31074: entering state 2 May 23 12:27:59 linuxcp19326 spamd[31071]: prefork: new lowest idle kid: 31075 (it waits about 20-30 seconds at this point in the logs) May 23 12:28:29 linuxcp19326 spamd[31074]: spamd: timeout: (30 second socket timeout reading input from client) at /usr/bin/spamd line 1999.
