Postfix error
 

I get an error on restarting my server that reads:

/etc/rc2.d/S20saslauthd: line 54: syntax error near unexpected token '('...
when I check it, everything is identical to what appears in the perfect setup instructions.....what am i missing or doing wrong?

Can you post the output of here?

Looks ok. Can you now post /etc/init.d/saslauthd here?

If you use putty as SSH client, simply mark the text with the cursor, open this forum in your webbrowser, right click in the editor window and chose paste.

Umm, that's already been posted... :rolleyes:
