Thanks Charles,
Your suggestion worked.
For anyone else who is interested, Here's the final results.
I modified my poplog script tp read as follows...
#! /bin/sh
newmail=`ls /home/"$USER"/Maildir/new/ | wc -l`
newmailbytes=`du -sb /home/"$USER"/Maildir/new/ | cut -f 1`
echo "$TCPREMOTEIP" "$USER" "$newmail" "$newmailbytes" |
/var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d 19
pop="$1"; shift; exec "$pop" "$@"
I'm running a distor based on RedHat 7 so the pop3d daemon is called
from xinetd. So the /etc/xinetd.conf file has a pop3 section that
reads as follows....
service pop-3
{
socket_type = stream
user = root
wait = no
server = /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
server_args = localhost /bin/checkpassword /var/qmail/bin/poplog
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
}
Next, I edit the /etc/syslog.conf so the line for local3 reads...
local3.*
/var/log/popper.log
And finally with all this I get a /var/log/popper.log that has the
following...
May 17 11:54:01 testmail pop3d: 990114841.105074 dean 4 20480
May 17 12:01:42 testmail pop3d: 990115302.090064 dean 12 57344
I hope this helps someone else.
Again Thanks to Charles for his response.
Regards
Dean
