There's two reasons for that: We hate spam and we'd like to see changes beforehand, so we just have to care about wiki rot and not about wrong entries in the wiki. http://wiki.centos.org/Contribute#head-42b3d8e26400a106851a61aebe5c2cca54dd79e5 shows some reasons for that.

Thank you, Ralph, acting on it. I am absolute beginner, so I was quite happy someone checks it. Nevertheless, here are my additional remarks on: http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/Amavisd 1) I would put the test chapter after the SELinux chapter 2) The first sentence in 5.1 suggestes (for me), that the settings for CentOS 5 are not required for CentOS 6. I don't think this is the case. Proposed change: Current phrase: "For CentOS 6 a slightly different approach is needed." New phrase: "For CentOS 6, additional steps are required." 3) Are you shure, this is CentOS 6 specific ? How do you know ? 4) I personally would add some explanation in 5.1, what this is for. The reason for explanation is, that this scheme may be used for eventual other virus scanners in an analoguous way. Proposed text: Amavis is storing the message body and all attachements (subfolder "parts") in a subfolder of "/var/amavis/tmp". The virus scanner is scanning those files and writes its result in files in this folder. Virus Scanner action on this folder is stopped by SELinux, resulting in errors like "(!)run_av (ClamAV-clamscan) FAILED" in "/var/log/mail". Do the following to allow this interface with clam-av: ... 5) I am not shure, if the "Harald Oehlmann" and the link to the post is very helpful...

Changed that. > 3) Are you shure, this is CentOS 6 specific ? How do you know ? I tested this on CentOS 5 way back when that content was written. :) > 4) I personally would add some explanation in 5.1, what this is for. > The reason for explanation is, that this scheme may be used for eventual > other virus scanners in an analoguous way. Added that, too. > 5) I am not shure, if the "Harald Oehlmann" and the link to the post is > very helpful... I just wanted to give credit, where credit is due :) Plus: Your mail has some reasoning as to why that was added, which I don't know if that should belong on that page. I can take that out, if you want. Regards, Ralph ___ CentOS-docs mailing list CentOS-docs@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos-docs
