That is it. Just hangs there with no output. If I connect again exim4
just spins off another process and that new process ends up hanging
also. It keeps the connection open back to the client while it tries to
generate the /var/spool/exim4/gnutls-params file. Eventually nobody can
connect.
Since the above debug didn't show me much I thought about doing an
strace and connecting agaim...

And that just keeps on going like that... Exim never does generate the
correct /var/spool/exim4/gnutls-params file for me.
Is there a way to generate this by hand? If I could just generate it
correctly then I could have it run when /etc/cron.daily/exim4-base is
called.
I've rebooted with kernel-image-2.6.9-1-686-smp
image=/vmlinuz
label=Linux
initrd=/initrd.img
append="devfs=nomount"
read-only
I also have udev_0.048-2_i386.deb installed and it start at reboot.
Not sure what else I can do right now. Any more ideas would be great.
