Hi all,
I'm new to the Dspam community and linux. A few months ago, I leased a
Fedora Core 6 unmanaged server and my three domains are steadily
collecting, you guessed it, spam. While I have a background in desktop
support and fairly computer savvy, it's been on the Windows side. This
is my first foray into setting up something like this and I could use
some help.
Here are the specs of what's installed what I would like Dspam to
cooperate with:
Fedora Core 6 (yes, I know Fedora's up to 8... it came with the server)
Plesk v8.2.1
MySQL v5.0.27-1.fc6
Qmail v1.03-fc6.build82070918.10
Courier IMAP/POP3 v3.0.8-fc6.build82070918.10
There's also something installed called 'qmail-rblsmtpd,'
v0.70-fc6.build82070918.10
My main questions are, given my setup:
1. What compilation options do I want to build it with?
2. What directory do I want to install it to? (Elementary for you
guys, I know)
3. What's the easiest way to set up the MySQL database? I have
access to phpMySQLAdmin.
4. Do I neeed a separate MySQL database for each domain (with one
installation of DSpam, I'm guessing?)?
5. Where can I read about setting up the web admin component, once
I have the main application running? (sorry again for the
elementary questions). Again, do I have to set up a web admin,
one for each domain?
I think that's about it. Thank you in advance for your help!
Sincerely,
Ansel Taft

Ansel,
FC6's Postfix package isn't compiled to support MySQL, so you will need
to rebuild the Postfix RPM with MySQL support.
There is a bug that will cause the rebuild to fail, you must edit the
"spec" file to reflect "ed = 0.2"
See:
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questions/fedora-35/postfix-.src.rpm-fails-to-build-533652/
I also have a personal Wiki that you can look at that may have the
compile options you asked about.
http://wiki.ledhed.net/index.php/DSpam_General#Compile_Options
and

You can also find a lot of help on IRC at irc.freenode.net channel #dspam
