Hi, Following the perfect setup (bind & dovecot) at the end of installation I saw that message Code: Stopping amavisd: amavisd-new. head: cannot open `/etc/mailname' for reading: No such file or directory Starting amavisd: amavisd-new. Digging a bit on this site I found that the Multiserver setup on debian had this line Code: echo mail.example.tld > /etc/hostname [B]echo mail.example.tld > /etc/mailname[/B] /etc/init.d/hostname.sh start Is it mandatory. Do I have to reinstall ISPConfig after addind this line. Thanks
You dont have to reinstall ispconfig after setting the mailname, just restart amavisd. Every step in the tutorial is mandatory if you want to get a working setup.
Just to clarify Code: echo mail.example.tld > /etc/mailname Is on : Installing A Multiserver Setup With Dedicated Web but not on : The Perfect Server - Debian Lenny (Debian 5.0) With BIND & Dovecot nor The Perfect Server - Debian Lenny (Debian 5.0) With MyDNS & Courier So is it missing from last two tutorials or is it mandatory only for the multi-server setup Thanks
/etc/mailname is created by the apt installer automatically when you install postfix, so there is no separate command needed for that as the file gets created automatically on debian.
