Normally qmail init script is not in inetd.conf. Checkout at
/etc/rc.d/init.d/qmail-smtpd.init
Check the tcprules file is existing at `/usr/local/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb` ( seen
in your command )
Try using the given command.
supervise /var/lock/qmail-smtpd tcpserver -v -c40 -x
/usr/local/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -u81 -g80 0 smtp qmail-smtpd &
where, -u81 is the userid of qmaild ( `id -u qmaild` ) and
and -g80 is the groupid of qmaild ( `id -u qmaild` ).
Check whether /usr/local/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb file is existing ( default
location is /etc/tcprules/qmail-smtpd.cdb )
