Problems with Panther? - setgroups: Operation not permitted
Authored by: marcmac on Feb 04, '04 04:25:41AM

I just got this working in Panther. I found that the server wasn't connecting to the mail server at all, because the root user (as whom xinetd was launching ssh) was failing on a host key check.

I did sudo su -, then as root ran the ssh command by hand, told it to add the key to the known hosts, etc - and once the root user was able to log in without interaction, I didnt' have any more problems.

(One other stupid problem I had - my mail server was refusing to relay mail from 127.0.0.1)
