Hi, too funny! Right after I posted this I upgraded to exim 3.02. AFTER the upgrade dselect gave me this message:
Important! Exim configuration file format has changed! ====================================================== Your old configuration file has been renamed to /etc/exim.conf-pre-v3. An automatic conversion script has been used to write a new /etc/exim.conf for you. However, this does not fix everything, and you should check it is OK. Because a wrongly configured mailer can cause serious problems, exim is now disabled! When you want to re-enable it, you should do "eximconfig -i". I now have serious problems. exim won't work with fetcmail (outgoing and local mail works). If I had known this about the exim upgrade, I would have waited and planned this upgrade. This illustrates my earlier described problem perfectly! :) On 25-Jun-99 Christian Dysthe wrote: > Hi, > > one thing I would like to see is some kind of "warning" when a package that > can > be upgraded using dselect if the upgrade means the software needs to be > majorly reconfigured after the upgrade. > > An example would be if for instance program-x could be upgraded and > /etc/program-x.conf would have to be replaced with a new one with new syntax. > I would like to know this *before* I did the upgrade since this could mean a > lot > of work. ----------------------------------- Regards, Christian Dysthe Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.bigfoot.com/~cdysthe ICQ 3945810 Powered by Debian GNU/Linux ----------------------------------- "Clones are people two"
