Default port is 783 according to the man page for spamd. Use fuser to see if there is something else already running here:
| Code: | | fuser -u -v -n tcp 783 |
Also check that neither the config file or /etc/conf.d/spamd override the default to another that is in use. |

thanks for the reply and suggestions ..
| Code: | fuser -u -v -n tcp 783
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
783/tcp root 1452 f.... rpc.mountd |
Also check that neither the config file or /etc/conf.d/spamd override the default to another that is in use.
umm .. i did post my /etc/conf.d/spamd contents ..
nothing else ..
so it seems the rpc.mountd is on the same port .. how can i adjust all of this? |

D'oh! My bad.
From the mountd man page:
| Quote: |
-p or --port num
Force rpc.mountd to bind to the specified port num, instead of
using the random port number assigned by the portmapper.
|
So it seems you've just got unlucky. Edit /etc/conf.d/nfs and assign a specific port in RPCMOUNTDOPTS="" to avoid this in the future. Or edit /etc/init.d/spamd and add a before nfs in the depend() function. Or even just restarting nfs will probably end up with mountd on a different port. |

Ok .. that did work .. look below for the steps i performed ..
| Code: | fuser -u -v -n tcp 783
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
783/tcp root 1452 f.... rpc.mountd |
| Code: | | /etc/init.d/nfs restart |
| Code: |
[ ok ]ing NFS mountd...
[ ok ]ing NFS daemon...
[ ok ]ing NFS statd...
[ ok ]ing NFS statd...
[ ok ]ting NFS directories...
[ ok ]ing NFS daemon...
[ ok ]ing NFS mountd... |
| Code: |
fuser -u -v -n tcp 783 |
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/spamd restart
[ ok ]ing spamd... |
| Code: |
fuser -u -v -n tcp 783
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
783/tcp root 3581 f.... spamd |
then ..
nano -w /etc/conf.d/nfs
| Code: |
RPCMOUNTDOPTS="-p 3276" |
then ..
| Code: |
/etc/init.d/nfs restart
[ ok ]ing NFS mountd...
[ ok ]ing NFS daemon...
[ ok ]ing NFS statd...
[ ok ]ing NFS statd...
[ ok ]ting NFS directories...
[ ok ]ing NFS daemon...
[ ok ]ing NFS mountd... |
and then ..
| Code: |
fuser -u -v -n tcp 3276
USER PID ACCESS COMMAND
3276/tcp root 3681 f.... rpc.mountd |
and thats it .. thanks for your help .. i guess am not so "man" dependent; guess i have to get smart to it ..
but hope this helps someone out someday, glad i had faith that someone would help me solve it also .. thanks again ..  |
