Having a problem with getting qmail started after a system upgrade...(from
Solaris 2.5.1 to 2.6). This is what I had in my startup script (which used
to work fine!):

 nice -20 env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:$PATH" qmail-start ./Mailbox splogger
qmail &

====

I added the following line to inetd.conf and HUP'd the daemon.

smtp stream tcp nowait qmaild /var/qmail/bin/tcp-env  tcp-env
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd


Here's what I get in /var/adm/messages:

May  3 12:12:42 control qmail: 925758762.778242 alert: cannot start:
unable to open mutex

This machine is not a heavy user oriented mail server...our main mail
server has tcpserver installed, but this one doesn't.

Any help appreciated;
