Dear Allori,
1) I want to upgrade to version 5.0.1.8, can it be considered good for a production enviroment: is it
really stable?
Its been tested on all the 4 MTAs and on RedHat, Fedora, Gentoo, SUSE,
Mandrake, Debian and Slackware and no bug reports as yet, so it must be
reasonably stable. You can try it on a test server before going for a
production upgrade though.
2) If it is stable, how to upgrade to 5.0.1.8 on a mailserver already running 5.0.1.7? untarring the
distribution and then ./openprotect-install?
Yes, that would do and the old conf files will be backed up at
/var/openprotect-backup.
Does it overwrite the old config files? Do i have to modify
them in order to have the new version working?
Except MailScanner.conf and other new rulesets created by you, other old
conf files are restored from the /var/openprotect-backup directory.
3) How does the new quarantine clean module work? Does it simply do an "rm -rf *" into MailScanner
quarantine directory once every 30 days?
No, it runs everyday and checks any directory which is more than 30 days
old and deletes it. The corresponding bash code is:
system("rm -rf $entry") if -d $entry &&
-M $entry > $days_to_keep;
4) What about the learning module i sent you? Are you going to include it into the next version?
We'll include it in the next beta, as it is still under integration.
Sorry for the delay :(
cheers,
Karthikeyan, S.
