I noticed the startup of Postfix failed after I enabled startup of linux-decnet. I found there were many startup errors with similar messages (from portmap, ntpd, postfix), like: postfix[2064]: fatal: inet_addr_local: ioctl SIOCGIFNETMASK: No such device There are also messages like: modprobe: modprobe: Can't locate module I modified /etc/init.d/decnet to force linux-decnet to startup after the other services: ### BEGIN INIT INFO # Provides: decnet # Required-Start: $network # X-UnitedLinux-Should-Start: $portmap xntpd postfix nscd # Required-Stop: $network # X-UnitedLinux-Should-Stop: $portmap xntpd postfix nscd # Default-Start: 3 5 # Default-Stop: 0 1 2 6 # Short-Description: DECnet dnetd daemon ### END INIT INFO I'm still not sure why the errors occur and if they are gone now. I remember seeing the modprobe errors in Red Hat 8 after installing linux-decnet; I just ignored them. I haven't put my linux-decnet server back into service after the upgrade from Red Hat 8 to SuSE 9, so I can't tell you yet if things are working as they did before.
