Hello Dave,

Are you using NetworkManager or /etc/init.d/network to set up your network interfaces ?

Hello,

Is anyone running Dovecot on either a Fedora 20 or 21 system? I'm having an issue, on a system reboot, which I admit does not happen often, Dovecot fails to start in the systemctl list, output is status failed. The issue seems to be Dovecot can not bind to the ipv6 address. Now later if I manually log in to the box and start dovecot it works just fine no problems. I've googled and seen similar issues to this. Does anyone have a solution?

Thanks. Dave.

you could avoid that by have it loisten on the global IP (0.0.0.0 for ipv4 and ::: for ipv6) instead configure a specific IP for the service, otherwise you need to make sure ordering with After= or Before= in the systemd-units

[root@srv-rhsoft:~]$ cat /usr/lib/systemd/system/dovecot.service [Unit] Description=Dovecot IMAP/POP3 Proxy After=network.service systemd-networkd.service network-online.target dbmail-imapd.service dbmail-pop3d.service mysqld.service mysqld-dbmail.service Before=postfix.service
