I recently upgraded to lenny (stable), and I can not get apache to start. It
fails at boot time, and when starting it manually, it fails the same way:

I have an etch system that has been running a 2.6.5

The 2.6.5 kernel worked well but our organization is using VPN

Any system providing a command line is sufficient.
It could be a DEC VT100 or an Atari or a Mac Plus.

I think I've found a/the fix for re-enabling the original behavior of my
transport maps and MX relaying. I added .$mydomain to mydestination in
main.cf. This is in addition to $mydomain which was already in
mydestination.
$mydomain vs. .$mydomain is subtle but apparently important.

My sound often gets stuck and just repeats the same short sound over and

down cyclically--in fact it may be playing a single tone.

period in which there is n
