Hello list,

I retrieved amavisd-sendmail.rpm (23-Oct-2002) from
people/link/amavis/SuSE/8.1 for mail scanning incoming and outgoing mail
on my new SuSE8.1 server running sendmail 8.12.6 coming with 8.1. I also
retrieved the missing Perl-modules and changed the /etc/amavisd.conf go my
virus-scann f-prot.
A "rcamavis start" gives me:
Starting virus-scanning for sendmail (amavis):
   starting amavis-milter                                            failed
   starting amavisd                                                  done

and in /var/log/messages
Jan 14 16:04:02 imladris amavis-milter: amavis-milter: Unable to bind to
port local:/var/run/amavis/amavis-milter.sock: No such file or direct
ory
Jan 14 16:04:02 imladris amavis-milter: amavis-milter: Unable to create
listening socket on conn local:/var/run/amavis/amavis-milter.sock

I must say that I have no clue what to do or where to look anymore
(googling didn't take me further...).

On my old system with SuSE7.3 I just installed the rpm of amavis-sendmail
(non-daemon version) which nearly ran out of the box. Now I upgraded some
memory in my server and I wanted to switch to amavisd (I also tried also
the amavis-sendmail of 8.1, but somehow it didn't scan my mail).

I also know that I should some more things about m4, sendmail and so on,
but for time-saving I wanted to use the prepared RPM.

Heeeelp! ;-) Please!
