Not picking on you, Scott... but I'd rather reply instead of starting a new
msg. fresh...
Anywho: As I helped start this whole friggin' mess, I have a question about
reinstalling:
How do you install a qmail system on a machine *without a compiler*...
especially when all you have to work with is a box that already runs qmail;
and *that* box has different qmail ID's than the target box?
RPM would be nice for that... I have no clue how to do what I propose,
other than totally whacking up that other box to do the compile, and if
that's a production system, that would be totally unacceptable.
Anyway, just another idea for the fray... ;-)
