Sorry for my poor English: I have problems with cyrus. it's block 10-20 times a day, all days. Don't crash, but suddenly don't accept any connections and the mua display the message " the server reject the connection", or "max number of connections reached". I'm used two hosts: 1- debian sarge with cyrus and postfix 2- debian etch with postfix The version of cyrus is 2.1.18-1+sarge2 My cyrus.conf is it: # Debian defaults for Cyrus IMAP server/cluster implementation # see cyrus.conf(5) for more information # # All the tcp services are tcpd-wrapped. see hosts_access(5) # $Id: cyrus.conf,v 1.16 2003/11/05 01:04:22 hmh Exp $ START { # do not delete this entry! recover cmd="/usr/sbin/ctl_cyrusdb -r" # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE # this is NOT to be enabled right now in Debian builds #idled cmd="idled" # this is useful on backend nodes of a Murder cluster # it causes the backend to syncronize its mailbox list with # the mupdate master upon startup #mupdatepush cmd="/usr/sbin/ctl_mboxlist -m" # this is recommended if using duplicate delivery suppression delprune cmd="/usr/sbin/ctl_deliver -E 3" # this is recommended if caching TLS sessions tlsprune cmd="/usr/sbin/tls_prune" } # UNIX sockets start with a slash and are absolute paths # you can use a maxchild=# to limit the maximum number of forks of a service # you can use babysit=true and maxforkrate=# to keep tight tabs on the service # most services also accept -U (limit number of reuses) and -T (timeout) SERVICES { # --- Normal cyrus spool, or Murder backends --- # add or remove based on preferences imap cmd="imapd -U 30" listen="imap" prefork=0 maxchild=100 imaps cmd="imapd -s -U 30" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100 #pop3 cmd="pop3d -U 30" listen="pop3" prefork=0 maxchild=50 #pop3s cmd="pop3d -s -U 30" listen="pop3s" prefork=0 maxchild=50 # At least one form of LMTP is required for delivery # (you must keep the Unix socket name in sync with imap.conf) lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="11.0.0.12:lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20 lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/lmtp" prefork=0 maxchild=20 # ---------------------------------------------- # useful if you need to give users remote access to sieve # by default, we limit this to localhost in Debian sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="localhost:sieve" prefork=0 maxchild=100 # this one is needed for the notification services notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/run/cyrus/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1 # --- Murder frontends ------------------------- # enable these and disable the matching services above, # except for sieve (which deals automatically with Murder) # mupdate database service - must prefork at least 1 # (mupdate slaves) #mupdate cmd="mupdate" listen=3905 prefork=1 # (mupdate master, only one in the entire cluster) #mupdate cmd="mupdate -m" listen=3905 prefork=1 # proxies that will connect to the backends #imap cmd="proxyd" listen="imap" prefork=0 maxchild=100 #imaps cmd="proxyd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=0 maxchild=100 #pop3 cmd="pop3proxyd" listen="pop3" prefork=0 maxchild=50 #pop3s cmd="pop3proxyd -s" listen="pop3s" prefork=0 maxchild=50 #lmtp cmd="lmtpproxyd" listen="lmtp" prefork=1 maxchild=20 # ---------------------------------------------- } EVENTS { # this is required checkpoint cmd="/usr/sbin/ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30 # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression delprune cmd="/usr/sbin/ctl_deliver -E 3" at=0401 # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions tlsprune cmd="/usr/sbin/tls_prune" at=0401 # para evitar squat failed en log squatter cmd="/usr/sbin/squatter -r *" period=240 #squatter_1 cmd="/usr/bin/nice -n 19 /usr/sbin/squatter -s -r user" period=240 } Any idea?
