Re: [spamdyke-users] growing number of tcpservers which eventually reaches the limit of tcpsessioncount

2008-09-26 Thread Erald Troja
Felix,

thanks for the suggestion, we're just trying to minimally build up
on Spamdyke.  We've got the most critical functions which others don't
do in first, and perhaps we'd expand to more.

We're trying to get a solid minimal config going on, since we receive
quite a lot of incoming ube/uce.

Thanks.

 Any reason you are running rblsmtpd, which I assume is what $RBL reers 
 to in addition to spamdyke? Smpamydyke does a much better job a RBL 
 control, because it can exclude authenticated/whitelisted clients and 
 thus allows to use much stricter blacklists.

 Hello all,
 
 We are using Hsphere control panel automation offered
 from Parallels with precompiled Qmail binaries.
 
 Our entry onto the spamdyke /etc/init.d/qmaild script which
 is currently running on a CentOS 4.6 is as follows.
 
 at the very top we define SPAMDYKE and it's configuration file
 
 SPAMDYKE=/usr/local/bin/spamdyke --config-file /etc/spamdyke/spamdyke.conf
 
 further down onto the start portion of /etc/init.d/qmaild we issue (all 
 in one line)
 
 tcpserver -v $RRDNSKEY -R -c $TCP_SERVERS $IPLIMIT $RELAYCHKARG -u 
 $USER_VPOPMAIL -g $GROUP_VCHKPW 0 smtp $SPAMDYKE $RBL qmail-smtpd vchkpw 
 true cmd5checkpw true 21 | splogger smtpd 
 
 Our Spamdyke configuration file is as follows.  /etc/spamdyke/spamdyke.conf
 
 log-level=info
 graylist-level=always-create-dir
 graylist-dir=/var/tmp/spamdyke.graylist.d
 graylist-exception-ip-file=/etc/spamdyke/whitelist.conf
 graylist-min-secs=1200
 graylist-max-secs=4322000
 reject-unresolvable-rdns=true
 reject-empty-rdns=true
 
 
 Our maximum tcpsessioncount is set to 1000. This has been working
 fine for when our Qmail server was operating without Spamdyke.
 
 Recently we've hit the limit of tcpsessioncount twice.  I've been
 monitoring the log files and this happens slowly but surely.
 
 I'd like to ask, why, and what can we do to prevent this and make it.
 Raising tcpsessioncount is an option, yet I believe we will slowly but
 surely reach the limit as well.
 
 Thank you.
 

Try adding:
idle-timeout-secs=660
to your configuration file. I'm betting that will fix you up. ;)

See http://spamdyke.org/documentation/README.html#TIMEOUTS for details.
