Are you sure ? When I modify the .cf, I need to compile the .mc file as sendmail only know this one. So the .mc file contains my modifications at this time.

I just wondered if it was not an option in yum, maybe... >> Second, on some BO servers, my customers have requested the most recent >> version of PHP. > 5107R and 5108R already come with PHP-5.3.3 pre-installed, while the older > 5106R of course still uses PHP-5.1.6. Yes, but the 5107 and 5108 are based on Scientific Linux and it's problematic for some clients, convincing them to use CentOS instead of RH was already complicated, so Scientific Linux.... I know that you had already have this remarks and that you are working on the CentOS6 release, right ?
If it's so, I suppose there is no possibility to just install the "base-*" files from 5607 or 5608 on this boxes, by modifying the yum repos, and keeping the PHP5.3 installed ? The servers where the webUI was broken was 5106, but was up-to-date (redhat-release say "5.8"). Do you mean that the files are updated but always for a version 5.1 of PHP ? Do you maintain 2 branches, for PHP 5.1 and PHP 5.3, of the UI ? To be clear about the problem described, I haven't *moved* the admserv directories, but *copied* them in another location. So the updates of "base-*" have been applied in the original directories. When the files php.ini and php.conf were replaced, the pathes returned to these directories, and then admserv restarted with the installed PHP : 5.3.8, but in error. > Additionally for 5106R, 5107R and 5108R there are supported third party PHP > updates available from Solarspeed.net and Compass Networks.
