Hello,
I am installing qmail on a box with RedHat 6.1 as the OS. I am following
LQW's instructions. I have downloaded the source for qmail, ucspi, and
daemontools. I am to the section where I create users and groups, but I
am confused (VERY confused).
I cannot find the "INSTALL.ids" file. Nor do I understand the lines of
the script:
pw useradd alias -g nofiles -d /var/qmail/alias -s /nonexistent
pw useradd qmaild -g nofiles -d /var/qmail -s /nonexistent
Am I to substitute the username somewhere in the lines above?
The instructions say to edit /etc/group if INSTALL.ids is not installed.
OK. I find that, but I do not understand:
qmaild:*:7791:2108:: /var/qmail/:bin/true
Where is the user name located in this line? Am I missing something in
the instructions?
Thanks for any help, I really, really appreciate it. By the way--I am
installing this on a test machine, just like the instructions suggest.
:)
Thanks,
Joe Millay
