Hi,
From 3 days I'm faving one issue!!
Mine is :
[root@exim exim]# exim -bV

Configuration file is /etc/exim/exim.conf
========================================
All of sudden the no. of daeomons increases to some random number..
Currently it is
# ps -ef|grep exim
mailnull 2492 1 0 14:08 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
mailnull 2496 2492 0 14:08 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
root 2528 2103 0 14:14 pts/2 00:00:00 grep exim
[root@exim exim]#
Whenever there is a SMTP attempt to server, the no. of daemons keeps on
increasing!
Afte sometime it would be like this:
# ps -ef|grep exim
mailnull 2492 1 0 14:08 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
mailnull 2496 2492 0 14:08 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
mailnull 2535 2492 1 14:15 ? 00:00:00 /usr/sbin/exim -bd -q15m
root 2538 2103 1 14:15 pts/2 00:00:00 grep exim
[root@exim exim]#
WHAT IS THE CAUSE FOR THIS !!
# more /var/log/exim/main.log
