Are the toaster packages referenced with qtp-newmodel still being updated? I run this every month to update my toaster, but haven't seen any updates in a long time. Not even a spam update.

Thanks, gary

Gary,

[Q]tp-newmodel is for CentOS 5 and is no longer being supported as far as I know. I am creating rpms for QTP from the latest source (tar.gz) available for CentOS 5 (x86 and x86_64) and they are on my ftp site, here.

Thanks Eric, yea I'm still running CentOS 5. I know, it's out of date, but with security updates it's still a fine platform for my mail server! I'll check out your ftp site. Are these in a yum repo some where? Or added to EPEL?

Gary,

Not to be contrary, but CentOS 5 is not out of date..., yet. There is support for it for another 2 years. I'm running 2 servers with CentOS 5. Of all the versions currently available, I like it best and I've had the least number of problems with it. Grrr....why the continual upgrades? The RPM's I provide on my FTP site for the QTP are not available on EPEL as it would not have the configuration that is specific to a QT server. I'd like to put my rpms up on qtp.qmailtoaster.com so they'd be available with qtp-newmodel, but I don't know how. Anyway, that's life. I plan on making the rpms for CentOS 5 available until sometime past its end-of-life, maybe longer. I still have a CentOS 4 toaster that's running strong and doing a sufficient job for that client.

Eric, double thumbs up to that!! I totally agree and thanks for all the hard work. Also thanks to Tony for the good suggestion on testing the RPMs first. Like you I found the perl modules missing. I know I could find the latest for those in cpan, but I like to keep things in RPMs.

So I found the perl modules on rpmforge which I have a yum channel for that I mostly keep disabled unless I need something. So a yum --enablerepo=rpmforge install perl-Geo-IP perl-Net-CIDR-Lite fixed that.

Then I installed the RPMs from Eric's site and all appears to be good.

As for Dovecot, I've looked through those before but since I don't have any problems with my current installation I'm not going to rock the boat unless I need to.

Thanks, Gary
