Hi, I have given external lookup a try and found that it leaves a zombie process each time an external lookup is made, when using the program mode:
dspam daemon freshly re-started: r...@nix:/etc/dspam# ps aux | grep [d]spam dspam 430 0.0 0.4 6344 1680 pts/1 S 16:02 0:00 /usr/bin/dspam --daemon an email is received: r...@nix:/etc/dspam# ps aux | grep [d]spam dspam 430 0.0 0.6 14740 2344 pts/1 S 16:02 0:00 /usr/bin/dspam --daemon dspam 438 0.0 0.0 0 0 pts/1 Z 16:02 0:00 [extlookup.sh] <defunct> r...@nix:/etc/dspam# ./extlookup.sh t...@domain.com t...@domain.com actually, the my script is nothing more than (for the purpose of the test of course): #!/bin/sh echo $1 Here is my configuration regarding external lookup: ExtLookup on ExtLookupMode strict ExtLookupDriver program ExtLookupServer "/etc/dspam/extlookup.sh %u" Cheers, Julien ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
