    I am going through each of the steps in the Perfect Server Tutorial, but I have hit a couple of errors.

    Firstly, I couldn't find any packages with the lib64xorg. No such package exists. I attempted to reason that the 64x was for a 64-bit system, and I simply installed the packages listed on the MCC that matched the updates specified in the tutorial but without the 64x. I did the same for the sasl files.

    Now, I am done configuring Dovecot, and trying to move the S99ntpd files, but they do not exist in the /etc/rc3.d directory:

    It is the same in rc4.d and rc5.d. Am I missing something?

    Also, the S52mysqld file is highlighted in red and flashing. What does that mean?

    I guess ntpd isn't installed. Can you try
    Code:
    urpmi ntpd
    ?

    that worked. Thank you.

    Now, I just can't connect via telnet. It always tells me that the connection fails. I even tried a different port, and it still failed. I ran nmap, and it reported my port 25 to be closed (distinction: closed not blocked. I verified this with my ISP.) I must have missed a step somewhere.

    Have you any suggestions.

    You mean, connect to SMTP? From where? From the same host, or from outside? What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ?
