Dear All,
I want to update all my running qmailtoaster packages to the latest
stable one, that is available on http://qmailtoaster.com
As i have to do this on a production server, kindly suggest me how
to do this without affecting the server.
With Regards
Vinay
Use qtp-newmodel, which is in the qmailtoaster-plus package (http://qtp.qmailtoaster.com
). Your down time will probably be less than 5 minutes. qtp-newmodel
builds and installs all the new packages in a sandbox, so it doesn't
affect your running toaster until the point where it's ready to
update everything. If there's a problem with the builds or installs,
they happen in the sandbox first where you can fix them without
disturbing the production environment.
Which distro/version are you running?
It's usually a good idea to run "yum update" before running qtp-
newmodel. Also be sure to reboot if your kernel is updated by yum.

The only thing I would add is that if you did customizations like
adding the "/" character in the chkuser settings, that will have to be
done again.
