Hi Paul, Thanks for your reply. i changed it to exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -c 2000 -l 0 -R -H -v 0 110 \ and exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -c 2000 -t 50 -l 0 -R -H -v 0 110 \
yesterday and restart pop3d but the "file busy" problem still there. usually it will show 20-40 qmail-popup processes when we issue ps -Af. the following is a sample # ps -Af |grep popup |grep -v smtpd root 18107 24894 0 17:04:28 ? 0:00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.mydomain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var root 18130 24894 0 17:04:29 ? 0:00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.mydomain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var root 18121 24894 0 17:04:28 ? 0:00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.mydomain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var root 18134 18132 0 17:04:29 pts/1 0:00 grep popup root 13743 24894 0 16:57:36 ? 0:00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.mydomain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var root 14598 24894 0 16:58:46 ? 0:00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host.mydomain.com /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var # it seems it take longer time to process when using new vpopmail. ---- Chris ----- Original Message ----- From: Paul Theodoropoulos To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, September 19, 2003 4:16 PM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] share some experience with new version vpopmail If you don't set the -c option to tcpserver, it silently defaults to 40 concurrent sessions. so modify your tcpserver invocation in the start script as follows: exec /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -c 120 -l 0 -R -H -v 0 110 \ you could use of course a different value for -c depending upon your needs.
