Apparently, it's still in jaunty (I keep hitting that on all my ubuntu
boxes) so I re-open:
ii milter-greylist 4.1.8-2ubuntu1
root at cube:/etc/mail # /etc/init.d/sendmail start
* Starting Mail Transport Agent (MTA) sendmail
451 4.0.0 /etc/mail/sendmail.cf: line 1770: Xgreylist: local socket name /var/run/milter-greylist/milter-greylist.sock unsafe: Group writable directory
this is bad as the box boots and end-up with sendmail dead and it's easy
to miss.
In /etc/init.d/milter-greylist I see:
if [ ! -d /var/run/$PNAME ]; then
mkdir /var/run/$PNAME
chgrp greylist /var/run/$PNAME
chmod g+w /var/run/$PNAME
fi
so this is obviously wrong, and it comes from a local patch:
debian/patches/rc-debian.tempfs
** Changed in: milter-greylist (Ubuntu)
