[lug] mailman and logrotate?

[Scott Herod]

Hello,

I was asked to help someone with a machine running 7.3 that was starting 
to act up.  I discovered that logrotate was basically making a DNS 
attack with the mailman log files.  It was rotating every file in the 
/var/log/mailman directory so exponentially growing the number of empty 
error files.  Is this a known problem?  I see nothing on google about it.

Also, my friend does not know why mailman should be running at all so I 
checked their firewall and it looks okay.  However, xinetd is listening 
to a strange port (in the 30000s) that varies everytime I restart 
xinetd.  /etc/xinet.conf doesn't have anything that should listen to 
that and it should be blocked by their firewall.  Any suggestions as to 
where to look for where xinetd is getting another configuration?  (The 
rpm for xinet appears clean.)

Finally, since I don't believe in coincidences, anyone heard of spammers 
using wireless connections to trigger and send a mass mailing?

Thanks,

Scott
