Hello,
I believe you should stop portsentry to startwith, use ipchains to configure
things. killall -HUP portsentry and then remove lines from the
/etc/rc.d/rc.local.
Portsentry is probably not that useful, I installed it but I think it is more
trouble than it is worth. ipchains is extremely useful, as well as just
making sure to shut down services you are not using.
you can probably delete your dead.letter, and you can
tail -f dead.letter and the other log files to see what is going on that
is making them grow so fast
