Run as "root": postmap /etc/postfix/relay or, again as "root": config.postfix (hoping it still exists... - this had been cared for by SuSEconfig ages ago ;) )

Strange, here is what I just ran on my TW system (inside a root console): [root@saturn (0) ~]# postmap /etc/postfix/relay [root@saturn (0) ~]# config.postfix Reading /etc/sysconfig and updating the system... [root@saturn (0) ~]# postfix reload postfix/postfix-script: refreshing the Postfix mail system So, all commands do work for me!
. . . am now getting :
" Konsole output error: open database /etc/postfix/relay.db: Invalid argument"
How do you start your "root" console? If there is no such menu item, please start a _normal_ user console (such as xterm, gnome-terminal, konsole, ...) and then elevate to become the super-user "root" by typing the following command: su - Here you have to enter the password of the super-user "root". Once you get a root-prompt you can check if it's really a root-prompt: id Here you should see something like uid=0(root) gid=0(root) groups=0(root) If that's the case, you can simply enter the commands I initially wrote: postmap /etc/postfix/relay postfix reload # I didn't include this one initialy, it just reloads/restarts postfix or config.postfix
thus , as mr jan says, i have to set up relay.db correctly . . . how to do this please ?
Read and follow the stuff above.
thanks
