Hi. I'm having a very strange problem with my firewall machine that includes
the postfix
system. I recently installed an Postfix RPM package on my firewall machine.
I'v made all the configurations,
un-installed sendmail and maked sure that nothings is running on port 25.
I even port scanned my machine, and it only shows SSH.

So the problem is when i start postfix up, with /etc/init.d/postfix start or
at bootup it says "OK"
but it says "master is stopped" when i do "/etc/init.d/postfix status". So i
looked into the /var/log/maillog and it tells me :

Sep 13 12:25:22 **** postfix-script: starting the Postfix mail system
Sep 13 12:25:22 **** postfix/master[1504]: fatal: bind INADDR ANY port 25:
Address already in use.


Thats pretty stange as i have no deamon or process running on port 25.

And i'v noticed one more thing. I opened up the /var/log/messages and it
says :

Sep 13 12:25:22 **** postfix: succeeded
Sep 13 12:25:22 **** postfix: succeeded


Can anyone please help me with this one, or tell me what is going on. I'v
never seen this before.

Thanks for your time.

Cheers. :0)
