I've done that before. Here's what I did; Installed and configured Redhat & sendmail to another machine. Copied passwd, shadow, group, .forward files/.procmailrc aliases, relay files, virtusertable and other files needed by sendmail. Also copied the users mailboxes.
That procedure works for me and in case you screwed up, you still have your original mail server. a good fail safe procedure will make it better. --- Glynn --- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ruel Masil" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 1:07 PM Subject: [plug] Help!!! > Hi guyz, > > I have a working Redhat 6.2 server running Sendmail with atleast 1000+ > users.
