hello!
on one of my servers (freebsd 7.0-R , Jail) I have a very strange problem
I guess its something about LOCKing.
some programs have issued with locking:
saslauthd[38127] :main : could not lock pid lock file: /var/run/saslauthd/saslauthd.pid.lock saslauthd[38127] :main : fcntl: Invalid argument

all directorys are existent and wirtable
I`m not sure if this only affects dovecot..maybe its a issue caused of the OS.
anyone an idea? maybe its possible to run dovecot without these locking?
thanks!!
