Re: ssmtp and cron


Dirk:

I don't recall having the problem you're experiencing, but I'll give it a whirl tomorrow @ work and let you know what I find.  I do remember getting mail from cygwin-cron at one point in time, but I don't recall what I did to make it work.  If I get to work, I'll let you know how.

Hello,

can somebody help me please!!!!
I've got cron and ssmtp to run. It works fine.
When cron is started and wants to mail me a message, then there was two error-entries in the eventlog und windows 2000. First tells me:

sSMTP mail : Win32 Process Id = 0x668 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x66C : unable to create a socket..

and the second:

sSMTP mail : Win32 Process Id = 0x668 : Cygwin Process Id = 0x66C : can't open the smtp port (25) on mail.gmx.de..

because of the first error.
When I call ssmtp from the commandline then it works fine.

I've give it up after two days of trying. Cron did his work. But I want his messages! Any ideas?


bye
Dirk
