Hi
Happy New Year :-)
I've just been looking at my process list and noticed quite a few
Zombies, 15 in total, 8 MailScann and 7 sh, the email system seems to be
working correctly as far as I can tell, so I'm not sure why I'm getting
these Zombies.
Top output :-
2202 mailnull 20 0 0 0 0 Z 0 0.0 0:00.14 MailScann
21103 nobody 23 0 0 0 0 Z 0 0.0 0:00.00 sh
Are these normal?
Should I be worried about them?
Can anything be done about them?
Am I loosing emails?
I'm running CentOS 4.4 with cPanel, and used the MailScanner Service
supplied by configserver.com
Thanks
Pete
