I don't use RulesDuJour, but I thought you could place SARE rules in a subdirectory. > If I use the /var/lib/spamassassin setup, sa-update creates a directory > for each version of SA and I would have to move the RulesDuJour rules into > those everytime I update SA. > Thanks for any help, > .peter If using sa-update to download SARE rules, it follows along to the newest directory, but it is a problem when running chrooted as I would image you would have to script something like this: #!/bin/bash sa-update code1=$? sa-update --channelfile /root/sare-sa-update-channels.tx --gpgkey 856AA88A code2=$? if [[ `expr $code1 + $code2` < 2 ]]; then spamassassin --lint code3=$? if [ $code3 = 0 ]; then rm -rf /var/amavisd/var/lib/spamassassin cp -rp /var/lib/spamassassin /var/amavisd/var/lib/spamassassin /etc/init.d/amavis restart else echo "spamassassin failed to lint" fi fi Gary V ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
