| when trying to install, i get error [root@ns1 xqmagent]# ./xqmagent ERROR: socket.error (98, 'Address already in use') [root@ns1 xqmagent]# |

| Change the port inthe .conf file and in XQMwin's config dialog as well. The currently selected port is already used by another applicatiion. |

| what port needs to be changed? the: CTRL_PORT = 6017 or the AGENT_PORT = 8000 port? |
| Posted by: hschneider Jul 23 2003, 09:34 AM |
| The AGENT_PORT. Set it e.g. to 8011 on both XQM Agent and in XQM's config dialog. CTRL_PORT holds XMails Control Port which is 6017 on a XMail standard installation and should not be touched. |

| ok, I changed port in Xmail QUe Agent and now it looks better. [root@ns1 xqmagent]# ./xqmagent Daemonized! [root@ns1 xqmagent]# I do not see where to change 8000 port in Xmail Que manager. I downloaded your latest version and setup remote mode but get No agent found. Please check configuration when try to run. |

| Click 3rd icon from the right. Choose "Run in remote mode" and enter the IP and port no of the Agent. Click "Apply". If connect fails, there might be a firewall between you and the server ... (?) |
| Posted by: tommygunner Jul 23 2003, 06:16 PM |
| No, there is no firewall. I had zonealarm open but closed it and even connected computer directly to cablemodem instead of router. I still get same thing after I hit apply. No agent found. Please check the configuration. |

| On your Linux server do a ps -A|grep x* Does this display the Agent's process ? If yes, do a telnet linux_server_ip agent_port_no. E.g. telnet 192.168.0.1 8010 from your workstation. When the screen is blank, hit return. This should show something like <head> .... does it ? |

| nope. bash-2.05$ su root Password: [root@ns1 /]# ps -A|grep x* [root@ns1 /]# cd usr/local/xqmagent [root@ns1 xqmagent]# ./xqmagent ERROR: socket.error (98, 'Address already in use') [root@ns1 xqmagent]# ps -A|grep x* # This file goes to /etc/xqmagent.conf [root@ns1 xqmagent]# also, I can't telnet because I have telnet disabled. I use SSH instead. |

| Restart your linux machine. Then do su root ./xqmagent --debug What do you see ? Are you sure you use the latest release from http://marketmix.com ? |

| On my windows pc I have version 1.36 and on my linux server I have xmail que agent 1.24 or 1.25. I just downloaded them yesterday. I haven't added anything for startup script. What would you recommend for Redhat 7.2 startup script? |
| Posted by: hschneider Jul 23 2003, 08:28 PM |
| export MAIL_ROOT=/var/MailRoot ./xqmagent What about the debug output ? |
| Posted by: tommygunner Jul 23 2003, 09:02 PM |

| You still have the sample configuration (except AGENT_PORT) of the original archive: - Your workstation is not in the list of trusted clients. Add its IP to that list. - The Agent is listening to 127.0.0.1 - this is the internal loopback address, which is not reachable from your LAN. - Set AGENT_IP in the .conf file to the IP address of your Linux machine. Restart in debug mode and check if the Agent is now - listening on your Linux server's IP - Your workstation's IP is listed as a trusted client. |

| ok, changed it. My ISP has been changing IP more frequently so i am using dynamic ip service now and have it setup on port 80. I think they might be blocking port 80. |
| Posted by: hschneider Jul 24 2003, 06:08 AM |
| If your worstation uses a dynamic IP, you need to run a tool which assigns a name to your dyn. IP (see e.g. http://dyndns.org or http://no-ip.com ). Then add this machine name to the Agent's list of trusted clients, e.g. tommygunner.no-ip.com. The Agent will resolve this name to your currently assigned IP. If your server is on a dynamic IP, just set DYNIP=1 in the Agent's .conf file. If its IP changes, the Agent will sync in approx. 5 - 15 minutes. BTW: You can read about all this in XQM's help manual. There are different scenarios explained ... |

| Thanks for the info. Still not working. I have no-ip setup and have apache running and can access it both inside and outside network on port 80. I modified file to look similiar to file in your help file. I can run another xmail program called Xmail Server Manager just fine, but haven't been able to get your program to work. I run the debug program and am not sure where it outputs file to. maybe if I can find that it will help. |
| Posted by: hschneider Jul 25 2003, 06:04 AM |
| If you use Apache on port 80, you cannot use another application on that port. Xmail Server Manager only uses the CTRL port of XMail itself. Please post - your xqmagent.conf - your Linux Server IP - your no-ip machine name - your XQM Setup |

| I'll have to post that another time. Server was hacked and I have to start over now. |
