OK, I've applied all of this week's updates (via up2date), including
xorg, libxml, and the new kernel-2.6.9-1.3_FC2, rebooted to init level
3, downloaded the new nVidia driver 6629, installed it, and changed to
init level 5.
I noticed the following during the bootup:
dovecot failed:
> Nov 17 22:14:42 kjc386 dovecot: Fatal:
> Nov 17 22:14:42 kjc386 dovecot: listen(143) failed: Cannot assign
requested address
> Nov 17 22:14:42 kjc386 dovecot: dovecot startup failed
"netstat -l" doesn't show anything bound to the IMAP port. And this
used to work under 2.6.8-1.521:
> Nov 15 14:34:12 kjc386 dovecot: dovecot startup succeeded
Attempts to restart dovecot fail with the same error.
What am I missing? Or maybe I should ask "what's changed?"
I also had to fix a minor error in one of my local named zone files
(apparently, something is more sensitive to the formatting of my HINFO
record now.) But I have named is running again, but not dovecot.
