Hi,

I have googled around about this, and found many people who had the
same problem. I have tried all those solutions, but none works here
with me...


Starting amavisd... The value of variable $myhostname is
"whateverisfilledinfails", but should have been
a fully qualified domain name; perhaps uname(3) did not provide such.
You must explicitly assign a FQDN of this host to variable
$myhostname in amavisd.conf, or fix what uname(3) provides as a
host's network name!

Is the message i get.

i use serverversion 11.2, and tried every example listed when people
solved their issues.
/etc/amavisd.conf

What does 'uname -n' tell you? If it is not a fully qualified domain
name, it sounds like you can just set it in amavisd.conf.




it tells me Asus-sfn6
--but should have been a fully qualified domain name;--

# /etc/init.d/amavis start
Starting virus-scanner (amavisd-new): Specified socket is neither a port
number nor an absolute pathname: Asus-sfn6/amavisd.sock

is what i get, just as with every other name i filled in...
