Description of problem: There is hardcoded command line option "in /etc/init.d/dkim-milter startup script, which overrides some conf file parameters Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dkim-milter.i386 0:2.8.3-4.el5 How reproducible: Steps to Reproduce: 1.Install dkim-milter package and set Socket parameter in dkim-milter.conf. Say Socket inet:127.0.0.1:4445 2. restart dkim-milter service 3. it turns out that dkim-filter daemon doesn't listen on network, but stil listens to socket file! Actual results: daemon doesn't listen on network port Expected results: daemon does listern on network port Additional info: There is a hardcoded option -p <socket filename> in start script - I've removed it manually (35'th string in /etc/init.d/dkim-milter script) and finally have got dkim-filter listening on network.
I agree, it really shouldn't be mentioned in the startup script. Out of curiosity, why do you want to use the loopback instead of a socket file?
No particular reason for using loopback network, but this is the only way mentioned in HOWTOs I am following to setup a postfix e-mail gateway with DKIM signing. And honestly, I am not familiar with unix sockets - is it possible to set up 2 concurent connections via same socket file?
Generally unix sockets are safer because you can set permissions on them. I believe you can tell postfix to use a socket by prefixing the socket file name with unix:. It turns out that I fixed this bug already and it is el6, but I hadn't backported it to el5. The new version will also includes a permissions fix for postfix.
