postmap: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db: Permission denied
- by James Benders
Hi,
I'm configurint Postfix to use external smtp. For this, I use the following tutorial: http://carlton.oriley.net/blog/?p=31
After following it, I found in the logs that /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db couldn't be read. The file didn't exist. I used postmap hash:/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd (http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/smtpauth/smtp_auth_mailservers.html) as root, but I get:
postmap: fatal: open database /etc/postfix/sasl_passwd.db: Permission denied
Why do I get this?
Thanks.
