Hola...
Like a good boy, I use tcpserver for all my qmail stuff. What has me
curious is why from time to time I will see multiple copies of tcpserver
spawn. My understanding was that as connections are made, tcpserver
just spawns the correct program, not another copy of itself. However, I
will frequently see several copies of, say, my POP3 tcpserver running.
All with identical command lines. If I check back later it may be back
down to just a sole instance.
Is this normal behavior?
I run both the POP3 and SMTP tcpservers from /var/qmail/rc like so:
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -R -q -p -x /etc/smtprules/tcp.smtp.cdb -u79 \
-g1003 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 &
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -q -R -u79 -g1003 0 pop3 \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup amazhan.bitstream.net \
/var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
Thanks,
Ben
