Do you mean that the domains are no longer virtual domains? That means either that you have 5 IP addresses and 5 copies of the qmail daemons (qmail-send, qmail-smtpd, etc.) running or that I can send mail to one of your users using any of the 5 domain names ([EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED], etc.) and the mail will all end up going to the same place. Unless you have patched qmail with something you haven't mentioned... or aren't using qmail? Also, what do you mean by "each having its own TMDA"? Are you specifically talking about tmda-ofmipd? The rest of the programs can be shared across multiple users/domains on a single machine. > So how can I migrate the users that are using TMDA without losing > there list? and there setting? The only files that can change without a user editing them are lists (specifically CONFIRM_APPEND and BARE_APPEND). Everything else you can copy safely to the users' new directories (this includes config, crypt_key, the entire pending/ directory, the responses/ directory and the filters/ directory). Then, stop qmail-smtpd on the original machine, copy all of the users' lists over to their new locations and start the SMTP service on the new machine. You'll have to coordinate the switch with your DNS changes for the new MX, so mail (particularly confirmation replies that will update the whitelist) doesn't go to the old server. How you do this is unrelated to TMDA, of course, and totally dependent on your particular situation; are you changing MX names, will the new server's IP address be the same as the old, and so forth. Remember that you can leave the old machine in service, forwarding mail to the new one, by removing your domain names from 'locals' and 'virtualdomains' (leave them in 'rcpthosts') and adding a route to the new machine in 'smtproutes'. HUP qmail-send so it rereads locals and virtualdomains. Tim _____________________________________________ tmda-users mailing list ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) http://tmda.net/lists/listinfo/tmda-users
