10.3: Enable the postfix Mail Transfer Agent
I performed an upgrade installation originally of 10.3 and discovered the "missing users" issue as well. Quite frustrating, I was able to follow some hints posted about installing Postfix (from O'Reily I believe) under Jaguar and in the process recreate the users in Netinfo to make this work... however it is a bit disheartening to see that Apple's upgrade procedure can have such a glaring hole... I imagine that one of the first "point" updates to 10.3 will fix the "missing users" issue.

Ugh, my CD didn't have the CreateSystemUsers script. I dug around for it a bit. nothing. I'm getting a friend of mine to email it to me today. Or, I'll have to add the postfix user/group manually. Where did you find info on it?

I also had to make sure with netinfo manager that the (now created) user "postfix" get the uid 27 as I "repaired the authorization" and it still didn't work. You can see in /var/spool/postfix that all subfolders are owned by "27" that should be postfix except the subfolder pid owned by root.

Hmmm, CrateSystemUsers simply is nowhere on my filesystem. Odd that the CD I have didn't have it. What I ended up doing was getting a copy of the script from a friend of mine and running that. Postfix works now. :) |
