Re: [qmailtoaster] Re: patch utility under Fedora 13

2011-04-15 Thread David Bray 
Hi Martin

It does help to understand how this work, but I'm still left puzzled.

I can compile it manually, but work with a life of 6 month on the
servers and update and move the data, so it important to me that I get
the install process right to make the migration quick ... hence the time
spent on this.

My reading of the patch documentation says that the utility is working a
intended, but the spec files are in error. Or Fedora changes the
execution directories when applying the patch.

It's is a battle and I have re-initialised the VM Container and am about
to start again.

I've managed to work out daemontools, that was pretty simple, change the
patch from 0 to 1

But then ucspi-tcp-rbltimeout.patch.bz2 of the
ucspi-tcp-toaster-0.88-1.3.9.src.rpm has me stumped

This is decompressed on the fly and applied - the first line is:

--- rblsmtpd.c<>2007-01-14 12:42:22.0 +0100

According to "man patch" this should be applied with no switches at all,
or read

--- ./rblsmtpd.c<>2007-01-14 12:42:22.0 +0100

but you can't just take the patch parameters away, fedora substitutes in
-p0 as default.

There is a path to apply Fedora 14 upgrades to the VM - wonder if
parallels will handle a change in kernel

There's a function built in to send an email to everyone in a domain. I
don't know how well that works or not though.

I think I'd look at modifying that capability to do it for all domains
on the server. That way you shouldn't need to mess with ezmlm or
subscriptions.

Why can't you have your script "Rebuild" the mailing list everytime it runs.
That way, it adds new accounts and purges old ones..???  There's got to be a
way to delete all of the address on the list, and then you can use your
script to repopulate it.

There's a function built in to send an email to everyone in a domain. I 
don't know how well that works or not though.

I think I'd look at modifying that capability to do it for all domains 
on the server. That way you shouldn't need to mess with ezmlm or 
subscriptions.

[qmailtoaster] Mailing List Question

2011-04-15 Thread Scott Hughes 
Is it possible to have the mailing list software that comes with QMT to
automatically remove a subscriber if the email bounces back to the server?

 

Example: I have created a script that runs once a day and gathers all of the
email addresses of my domains and if they aren't already, subscribes them to
a mailing list. This way if I need to email all users because of, say, a
planned outage, all the email addresses are there.  However, as people leave
the company I delete their email account but they remain on the mailing
list.

 

Any suggestions?

 

Thanks,

Scott

Hi,

The problem is not the patch utility itself, but the patch included in the 
package. It likely includes some fuzziness and the patch utility in Fedora is 
not tolerant when it comes to this. Personally, I think this is a good idea.
The problem happens when you apply a patch that was calculated against e.g. 
software version 2 and is now applied to software version 2.1.
If the file to patch has the lines to patch on different line numbers, some 
systems allow (by default) applying the patch with the offset (=fuzziness) 
while others do not.

Hope that helps,

Martin

Correct. The last line is dead, because everything will be processed by 
the line above it. The tcp.stmp file is processed sequentially.

Nevermind!  I think I figured it out. Stumbled upon it on the wiki (Thank

It was in /etc/tcprules.d/tcp.smtp  I had the CHKUSER_RCPTLIMIT=  set to
low.
