Working but still tweaking... RE: [Mimedefang] Re: mimedefang error mimedefang.sock unsafe??

[Troy R. LeBouef]

I managed to get it working by stopping sendmail service and restarting
mimedefang service, waiting for 2 min and or so and then starting
sendmail. 

Thanks for the tips... It is still a puzzlement. 2 systems and same
situation. 

Cheers,
Troy

As far as directories go.. the "x" bit simply means you can get a
directory
listing if you have privledges. For files it turns on execute allowing
the
file to be run as a program. I do not believe that should affect the
operation
of MimeDefang in any way as MD does not need the x bit on the directory
as it
already knows what the files are called and it only needs read write on
the
sockets. 

For some reason you are not getting the mimedefang.sock created. I would
double check your config files and make sure you dont have MD trying to
create
it elsewhere. You might also want to double check your /var/spool file
system
and make sure its not an underlying issue like bad inode, out of space,
out of
inodes, etc.
