    [SOLVED] Postfix/OTP related error message.

    I have a website on a server running Ubuntu 6.06 server edition. Postfix is installed on the server.

    The events log in my Control Panel contains frequent messages which read:

    OTP unavailable because can't read/write key database /etc/opiekeys: No such file or directory
    I have done some google research which suggests that the error message is caused by the the absence of a One Time Password (OTP) package.One post suggests that there is a Debian bug and that the appropriate workround is to remove /usr/lib/sasl2/libotp.*

    I am reluctant to take risks with my server, but I would like to get rid of this error message. Any advice or previous experience?

    Well, since no-one replied to my earlier post, I went ahead and backed-up/removed the libotp.* files from /usr/lib/sasl2. And the sky did not fall in, and the sun came up this morning, and my server and e-mails seem to be working normally, and there are no more error messages. So it seems to have been the right thing to do.
