I set up two Courier nodes using the same GFS storage for the maildirs and it worked fine in testing. It never got into production, but as far as I know there are no problems with setting it up this way. You can share the maildirs and the configuration, but I would not attempt to share the queue directories. Personally, I prefer to keep the configuration files separate as well. This allows you to make a config change on one server and test it before you apply it to the other server. -- Bowie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ courier-users mailing list [email protected] Unsubscribe: https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/courier-users
