Re: Exim Subject rejection, (* **** ***)
I added some text filters to stop the luv stuff (in case u have filters :) I am looking for a way to test for the presense of attachments with exim so I can maybe separate them from mail or at least wrap a big nasty warning around the email. I'll start playing with this after I get the rest of the mess cleaned at a couple places, but if someone has some of this done already I'd love to see a copy. Thanks. Thanks.

Virtual email hosting, with exim and IMAP
Folks, In a post 2 weeks ago, John Gonzalez gave links to a setup using vmailmgr and qmail, which allows Virtual email domains, cleanly. Ihave gone through the documentation, and wish to raise the stakes. I have two constraints to add: 1Minor issue, but any similar solutions using exim? I moved from sendmail to exim on our servers last year, and would rather not learn qmail. It is probably easy, but I am lazy ;-) 2Major issue. IMAP is required. vmailmgr does not handle IMAP, at least not yet. Users have no qualms logging in as [EMAIL PROTECTED] , do not need shell access, or pine, need a choice between IMAP and POP-3. In a pinch, they will contact me about changing passwords. We heed dozens of domains, but only a few users per domain. The names will clash, hence [EMAIL PROTECTED] required. I am not sticky about it being free, as long as it is a few $100. Of course, .debs that run on slink are appreciated. Thanks,

I just read about Courier IMAP at http://www.inter7.com/courierimap/ You can also write your own custom userid/password validation program. Virtual mailbox support. ... There's also an authentication module that implements the vpopmail virtual mailbox implementation. It might be what you need. Good luck... Jeremy C.

Re: Virtual email hosting, with exim and IMAP
Dear Mr Reed, - Original Message - From: Jeremy C. Reed [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2Major issue. IMAP is required. vmailmgr does not handle IMAP, at least not yet. I have never tried it, but cyrus-imapd-sql has virtual domains support. I don't know where docs are, but you can find it at http://www.hazard.maks.net/. Will check up. Users have no qualms logging in as [EMAIL PROTECTED] , do not need shell access, or pine, need a choice between IMAP and POP-3. In a pinch, they will contact me about changing passwords.

I don't use IMAP, but I do use Exim and gnu-pop3d with a patch I wrote for virtual domains. For info, check out http://www.reedmedia.net/projects/virtualmail/ I discovered it as well, and have been putting it togather as we speak. gnu-pop3d is up, and running. exim seems to be delivering. Your documentation is clear and extremely helpful. I am not sticky about it being free, as long as it is a few $100. Of course, .debs that run on slink are appreciated. If you want to pay to have an IMAP daemon patched to work with virtual domains (separate passwd files and separate mail directories per domain), let me know. Actually, I am the only user who appreciates the benefits of IMAP, so I shall simply not mention it to clients. These are typically associate organisations, who need very basic mailing services. I will take up the matter of commisioning someone to patch an IMAP demon, and releasing it GPL. Time my company put mony back into gnu ;-) Once again, thanks.
Re: using nsupdate to add a new zone?
Maybe I should explain myself a little bit clear. The company I work for has approx 1 zone files, with between 10-500 being delegated to our servers each day. I was looking for a dynamic way to add a zone file to the server without restarting the server ie ndc reload If I had a zone file that big I'ld chop the domain up into subdomains to spread out the DNS work. Unless you're talking about hundreds of pages, a normal text editor should be fine.

Wow.

Re: using nsupdate to add a new zone?
Maybe I should explain myself a little bit clear. The company I work for has approx 1 zone files, with between 10-500 being delegated to our servers each day. Wow. I was suprised at the amount of zone files and amount of delegations they get a day as well. Naturally the five hundred is a peak and does not happen every day but I do not want to reload the server every half hour or so as naturally it is quite busy. I was looking for a dynamic way to add a zone file to the server without restarting the server ie ndc reload Ummm, aren't you going to have to burp the server (i.e. ndc reload) to get it to start serving those zones. Thats true, but I was hoping that there was some dynamic way instead of just a ndc reload. I went through the source and it doesn't look too difficult to implement such a feature - I was wondering how other people handle these situations. Currently we reload our servers every 5 minutes (for customer turnaround time) but the machines don't seem to handle it very well.
Re: using nsupdate to add a new zone?
I don't understand why you need this to happen every 5 minutes. If it is delegations are from the root servers, they are only updated twice daily. Sure you can update the zone files right after the registration, but nobody except people who use your name servers for recursive lookups will get that info. If the problem is more one of pleasing the customer than doing the technically sufficient thing, I suggest the following: Separate the authoritative servers (A) from the ones the customers use for recursive lookups (R). Add the _new registrations_ to the R servers and update R's every five minutes. The customers who use the R servers will get the 'right' answers and be happy. Twice a day, yank that day's batch of new zones from the R servers and move them to A servers. This way R servers get updated often but with 100-500 zone files, the A servers get updated just in time. If the customers grab the DNS IP's via PPP, you can change the numbers very easily. Would this work, or am I misunderstaning the problem? cheers, BM
virtual ip's
How do I bind 2 ip's to the same nic in Debian I've tried ifconfig eth0:1 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx up ifconfig eth0:2 XXX.XXX.XXX.XXY up is there something I'm forgeting? Wayne

Re: virtual ip's
when using some stock kernel you probably should run insmod ip_alias, or modprobe it. in 2.2.x there used to be some problems with aliases, but there are no more. ifconfig eth0:22 206.29.139.35 broadcast 206.29.139.255 netmask 255.255.255.0 route add -host 206.29.139.35 dev eth0:22 counting maybe starts with eth0:0, but it doesen't matter. 22 is as good as first alias as :1 and :0, AFAIK
Re: virtual ip's
As stated earlier, we are running the 2.0.X tree on this machine. There is absolutely no module support compiled into this kernel either. Besides, the machine routinely has uptimes in the 250+ day period, and has over 60 virtual interfaces. All without a single hiccup.
