QMAIL-POP3D MADNESS!!!!

[makoffee]

k, here's the beef....

I'm haveing quite alot of trouble running qmail-pop3d. First I tried the life with qmail way by seting it up with tcpservice. The /service/qmail-pop3d/run looks like this....

#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/softlimit -m 8000000 \
/usr/bin/tcpserver -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \
0 pop-3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup antidata.net /bin/checkpassword \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d .maildir 2>&1

when I run it manualy, all is well and I can download my email just fine with evolution, but if I try and start the server with....

# svc -u /service/qmail-pop3d

svtstat /service/* tells me that it's "up" but when I try and connect with a pop3 client it just sits there and hangs. wtf?

next thing I tried was running it with xinetd as a cop-out to the LWQ way.
my /etc/xinetd.d/pop looks as such....

# default: on
service pop3
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
server = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
server_args = antidata.net /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
}

I restart xinet.d and I get and error when trying to connect with evolution.

Why can I run this manualy but no via a service? What the dillie-o?
