Thanks for the Feedback Understand about the Fedora Lifetime etc. I use VM's and Fedora 13 is the current Fedora. Tried Ubuntu, CentOS and keep coming back to Fedora - mainly because the php is more up to date
The driving line is not so much SA - SpamAssassin as Clam, on my last server - Fedora 12 based, there was an issue with spam and the update to SA 3.3 did get me into later rule sets (via sa-update) You can - in the Fedora 13 case, substitute in /yum install spamassassin/ with little difficulty, basically install the package, it pulls in what it needs, then create the scripts to run under daemontools. The clamav is harder, but I have it running, though untested. The end aim is just to let the rpm system update clam, rather than having to recompile to src rpm so why is that so bad ? well the toaster works fine on a VM with 20Gb HDD and 512k ram .... but to recompile the clam package you have to stop the services to free up memory ... so having a recipe for utilizing then yum package is nice ... which brings you back to your argument, Fedora 13 will only have a short life for clamav updates via yum .... *David Bray* http://www.brayworth.com.au da...@brayworth.com.au On 30/04/2011 12:14 PM, Eric Shubert wrote: > SpamAssassin 3.2.5 is current for CentOS 5.x. > > When CentOS 6.x is available (probably in a month or so), I expect > that Jake will make a spamassassin-toaster 3.3.1 (which is current for > RHEL6.0) package available. > > While there is probably not a major problem running SA3.3 with QMT > presently, there is always a possibility.
