Hello All
On installing Big Brother I had some trouble with disk space reporting and
other bugs in the software but then it seems to have found a bug in out
system.
BB tries to telnet hostname 25 and reports an error if it can't get through,
in this case the host can't connect to its own mail port. I get the
following when doing ps -ef|grep send:
root 31972 1 0.0 14:35:10 ?? 0:00.01 sendmail: rejecting
connections o
and then later it accepting/rejecting. when trying telnet hostname 25 I get
a message 'can't connect to remote host'.
What occurs to make this happen?
I look forward to any replies, I will summarise.
