Hi All,
I wrote a quick and dirty util for shutting down JAMES. Figured I'd
share it just in case its of interest.
To use it download:
http://www.superlinksoftware.com/killjames.jar
Create a script like this:
------/etc/rc.d/init.d/james-------------------------------
#! /bin/sh
start(){
echo "starting james.."
su -l root -c '/root/james/bin/run.sh' &
}
stop(){
echo "stopping james.."
su -l root -c '/root/james/bin/shutdown.sh'
}
restart(){
stop
sleep 2
start
}
------shutdown.sh-----------------------------------------------
And a script like this:
java -cp /root/james/bin/killjames.jar de.mud.telnet.JamesKiller
localhost rootpassword
--------------------------------------------------------------
assumptions:
1. admin is on port 4555 (otherwise change/recompile JamesKiller)
2. root user is "root"
3. killjames.jar is in /root/james with the associated "shutdown.sh" script
4. you're running james as root (tsk tsk tsk)
--------------------------------------------------------------
WARNING WARNING
if you have port 4555 open and you run this from a remote server your
james admin password will be sent in clear text over the internet and
everyone and every script kiddie and his younger brother will hack your
mail server.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Hope this is useful, if not...sorry.
-Andy
PS You may consider it distributed
under the terms of the GPL (I'm not a GPL fanatic, its just I used GPL
code, its not worth my time to rewrite a telnet handler/etc just to
distribute it under a less sucky license). I ripped this code off:
