Re: [vchkpw] Re: ps
Yes I meant to say my Qmail package (including vpopmail) there must be a solution for runing qmail+friends in a jail patching qmail and vpopmail so it finds uses a PID file would be cool that is what i mean't sorry if I was unclear about that... - Original Message - From: "Peter Palmreuther" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, October 14, 2002 9:25 AM Subject: [vchkpw] Re: ps > Hello Raboo, > > On Sunday, October 13, 2002 at 1:55:19 PM you wrote: > > >>> why does for example vadddomain and vdeldomain require /bin/ps ??? > > >> So that it can HUP qmail? > > > Isn't it better to make vpopmail leave a pid file instead then? > > 1.) vpopmail ain't a process running at your system. > 2.)

What PID file qmail leaves vadddomain and vdeldomain could rely on? > Cause when I chroot my qmail it doesn't have ps, nor does it have /proc You qmail don't need the 'ps'. vadddomain and vdeldomain need the 'ps' which both need not to be run form within chroot. If you _really need_ to run them both from within _same_ chroot() as qmail make qmail put it's PID while starting up into a file, write a script or small program called 'ps' that is accessible in chroot() of qmail and reads the file (your) qmail creates. Ain't that hard to do if you have special requirements on a special system setup. -- Best regards Peter Palmreuthermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
