Ummmm....
About 4 hours ago, the mailer on this system (postfix) died. Postfix has been
having major file locking problems that I don't have time to resolve (possibly
due to it using a different file locking mechanism than Berkeley DB, which it
uses). The problem got really bad this morning when postfix died and refused
to start up again.
I think I've fixed everything. We're now using the "exim" mailer (seems to
be working well). We're upgraded to kernel 2.4.0-ac11 (nice stuff), and the
mailing lists should all be working. And I'll be able to add a few more new
mailing lists since "newaliases" works now. Whee. :)
Thanks to Jerry for the exim mailer package. I would have been (really) dead
without it :)
Best Regards,

Maybe you should mount your root with the option "conv" once, if you have created
it with
an older version of reiserfs that 3.6.26 (which is the one on 2.4.0-ac11).
I'm currently working on r1, which includes a new reiserfs/nfs patch and a fix
for lvm-install (the "make install" line was missing). Did you ever test
lvm-tools? I did not have the time jet over here.
Bye Achim

I've already added a 2.4.0.11-r1, so yours will be -r2 :)
I'm going to be testing the LVM tools over here this evening.

Yes I saw, mine is -r2.

There is a new beta out now, which I detected that at freshmeat after I build -r2,
maybe you want to update because
the bugs fixed sound not unimportant.

A good idea. I guess I'll be turning your r2 into an r3 :)
