Re: Fedora 13 & Exim MTA
Trying to get Exim running on an F13 system, everything is
configured
except I need to add one additional non standard port for EXIM to listen
on (TCP port 554) due to some ISP filters in the way.
Problem is when I add 554 to the list of ports for Exim it won't start up
and I get the following in the log file -
2010-11-01 16:03:13 socket bind() to port 554 for address (any IPv4)
failed: Permission denied: waiting 30s before trying again (2 more tries)
2010-11-01 16:03:43 socket bind() to port 554 for address (any IPv4)
failed: Permission denied: waiting 30s before trying again (1 more try)
2010-11-01 16:04:13 socket bind() to port 554 for address (any IPv4)
failed: Permission denied: daemon abandoned
according to "netstat -an" nothing is listening on 554. I suspect its
something simple, just don't know where to make the change.
Thanks, Jeff
after some digging around I think I found it, the problem is SELinux, in
the process of modifying the rules now.
