There's a big thread about filesystems on postfix-users@postfix.org Could you shed some light on that issue? ----- Forwarded message from Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org> ----- From: wietse@porcupine.org (Wietse Venema) Date: Sun, 3 Feb 2002 07:53:26 -0500 (EST) To: Lawrence Greenfield <leg+@andrew.cmu.edu> Cc: Wietse Venema <wietse@porcupine.org>, postfix-users@postfix.org Subject: Re: syncronous directory operation...

...ffected yet. I am sorry if my post was not correctly formatted, this is the first time and i did not have time to read all the rules. Just wanted to let you now we are facing the same issues. I still have to test the update rollback. I will let you all now if this also worked for us. Greetings, Wietse Driever

Locking _does_ work for postfix and dovecot (discussed with Wietse, partly by mail). Any idea? As an alternative, is there a way of handling the problem better? Dovecot just locks on these corrupt mailboxes :-/ I didn't try Dovecot 1.0, as it is alpha and I don't have any package for that anyway (production system :-/ ). Thank you, -- -------------...

...Open SSH and TCP Wrappers Colleagues, We are trying to use open ssh 3.1p1 on SPARC platforms under Solaris 2.8 using gcc 2.95.2, in conjunction with tcp wrappers 7.6 (IPv6 version). The wrapping of open ssh is not too well documented but I think we have figured most of this out (hearty thanks to Wietse Venema, Jim Mintha & Niels Provos for their helpful email exchanges) -- but have one final question. Tcp wrappers can send out banner messages in response to various network service requests. The Banners.makefile that is used to create the various banner files from a prototype (inserting any...

You know, I was thinking: wouldn't it be nice to have RFC 4468 (Message Submission BURL Extension) support in dovecot? Maybe we should ask the guys from Apple to contribute some support for it, I have a gut feeling they would gladly do so ;) Kind regards -- Erik.

...> which contains a patch. This could be introduced by third parties. The tcp wrapper does this: if (setjmp(timebuf) == 0) { signal(SIGALRM, timeout); alarm(rfc931_timeout); ... stuff ... alarm(0); } Thus, no dangling signal handlers. Wietse

Hi, I''m running into something weird here. I''m using RH5.1 with tcp_wrappers 7.6. The syntax for hosts.allow and hosts.deny is: <service list> : <access list> [ : <shell_command> ] Everything works when I _don''t_ use the shell_command. I used the _exact_ line as in the man-pages utilising "safe_finger" (comes with tcp_wrappers), tcpdchk

Howyd all? Seems that I have been routed. Possibly by a physical B&E, but who knows? Probably some of you do.... anyways, some politically sensitive email was deleted from a user account and the line low -tr & inserted into my .xinitrc . Duncan (Dhu) Campbell
