HellO!
We are runnin exim-1.59 on AIX 3.2.5 and having some problems on how
the user nobody is handled on AIX:
nobody:!:4294967294:4294967294::/:
readconf.c:
/* Look up a fixed uid, and also make use of the corresponding gid
if a passwd entry is returned and the gid has not been set. */
case opt_uid:
pw = direct_finduser(sptr, &uid);
if (uid < 0)
log_write(LOG_PANIC_DIE, "Exim configuration error:\n"
" user %s, referred to in line %d, "
"was not found", sptr, config_lineno);
So the error log always says:
1996-12-19 09:28:02 Exim configuration error:
user nobody, referred to in line 48, was not found
Perhaps that could be changed to return errors in pw instead returnin
errors in uid.
I am also getting segfaults on forced deliveries:
if (!one_msg_action)
{
>> for (j = msg_action_arg; j < argc; j++) if (!mac_ismsgid(argv[j]))
{
fprintf(stderr, "exim: malformed message id %s after %s option\n",
argv[j], argv[i]);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
break; /* Remaining args are ids */
}
When I step per hand with gdb it fails in that line and the function it
segfaults on is:
#0 0xd00c4a00 in free_y ()
Perhaps you know what to further investigate there.
