The problem seems to be the tcp daemon tcpd. The logs are full of the
following message:
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: connect from unknown
Mar 14 16:59:40 buzoe tcpd[6026]: warning: can't get client address:
Socket operation on non-socket
Looks like we are missing a package. Any ideas?
Thanks

I have a colleague who just did a clean install of woody and once again
wanted to setup his imap server. He installed uw-imapd, but the daemon
won't start.
There is the appropriate entry in /etc/inetd.conf (which starts the
daemon through tcpd). One can start the daemon manually with
/usr/sbin/imapd, but we can't figure out why the daemon doesn't start
with the rest of the services in inetd.
He can send mail to and receive mail from the site, so we are at
somewhat of a loss. I suppose I could try courier-imap, but I would
like to resolve this issue. Any help appreciated.
Thanks
