Hey List, Just as a heads up, I have mailed a while ago that I was working on a Chef Cookbook for qmailtoaster. Since I have recently moved to a new root server, here the good news: It worked ;)
If others are curious, this is what I did: * Deploy all cookbooks and dependencies on my Hosted Chef account * Bootstrap the target node into my Chef Account * Apply a qmailtoaster role to the node that includes my cookbook * Run chef-client on the Node and wait for qmailtoaster to be installed including spamdyke * Sync data from the old server: * Database Dump and User Information for vpopmail * /home/vpopmail/domains folder * /home/qmail/control folder with changes to hostnames * /home/qmail/users folder to fetch qmail user CDB file And that was all. That move was painless and without issues, actually one of the best ones I had so far. Here some restrictions though: * I am not using any of the fronteds supplied in qmailtoaster (squirrel mail, qmailadmin etc) * The Chef way to install the frontend is prepared but not ready to use * CentOS 6.4 @Eric: If you are curious, I have pushed my Chef files to Github so you (and others) can take a look: https://github.com/TheSerapher/chef-repo This does not include the cookbooks I am using but the qmailtoaster cookbook can be found here: https://github.com/TheSerapher/chef-qmailtoaster Someday qmailtoaster will be in for some changes again, maybe we should consider wrapping it around a Chef way to install it instead of dealing with configuration changes, file adjustments and all that via RPM packages. This could even be accomplished without a Chef Server by using Chef Solo as described in my blog which I posted a while ago too. Just a few ideas, I love qmailtoaster and I will be happy with anything the list comes up with. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-unsubscr...@qmailtoaster.com For additional commands, e-mail: qmailtoaster-list-h...@qmailtoaster.com
