Hello,
I'm running milter-greylist 3.0 on AIX 5.3, with sendmail 8.13.8.
milter-greylist works fine running standalone on AIX, but when I try to sync
it to other peer machines (Solaris 9 and Fedora Core 3) it fails to sync to
them. It can receive sync messages from the other machines fine. When the
AIX box tries to sync to the other peers the following messages are logged
Dec 21 09:01:41 ibm2 mail:debug milter-greylist: sync_sender running
Dec 21 09:01:41 ibm2 mail:err|error milter-greylist: local_addr: bind
failed: No such file or directory
Dec 21 09:01:41 ibm2 mail:debug milter-greylist: sync_sender sleeping, done
0 entries in 0.047040s
I'll see one "local_addr: bind failed" message for each peer in the conf
file. After this the AIX box never tries to sync to the other machines
again until I restart milter-greylist. Actually, the other peer machines
don't log an "Incoming MX sync connexion" from the AIX box, so it doesn't
appear to be getting that far.
I can successfully telnet from the AIX box to port 5252 on one of the other
machines and add an entry manually so it doesn't look like a connectivity
problem. One other odd message I see from time to time only on the AIX box
is
Dec 21 09:14:00 ibm2 mail:debug milter-greylist: smfi_getsymval failed for
{if_addr}
Has anyone encountered these messages before and know how to resolve them or
does anyone have suggestions on how to further debug the problem?
Thanks.
- Mike
