Re: [vchkpw] vpasswd file issues??
Yeah, recompiles without clear passwords. That extra field in the password file for clear text passwords doesn't exist in your password files. Just compile without clear text passwords and it should fix it.

Some versions of cp only do utime and chmod updates after entire subdir hierarchies are finished copying. Most versions of cp will leave partially copied files around if interrupted by ctrl-c. If you have gigs of data and millions of files, cp may take too long to run for your allotted window. If you can be assured that cp will run to completion in a relatively short period of time, you should be okay... but if any of the above concerns are real to you, then I'd suggest using rsync. rsync typically cannot easily handled millions of files (it does a full scan before doing any work, building a list in memory), therefore you may need to rsync domain by domain or even mailbox by mailbox for domains with thousands of mailboxes. This is usually easily managed with a list of your email boxes and little scripting. rsync has the advantage that you can spend 8 hours doing the initial copy, but then "sync" up the source and destination in minutes, thus allowing a short migration window, and you can know beforehand that your new disk has the data on it (and your inode counts and block sizes were chosen wisely). I've migrated 14gig of data off of NT and onto unix with only about 2 minutes of downtime using this method. -- Ted Deppner http://www.psyber.com/~ted/

[vchkpw] Hard disk replacement
We're about to have to replace the HD in our mail server that contains the /home partition, which is where vpopmail resides. What I am planning on doing is stopping qmail, mounting the new drive, and doing the following: cd /home cp -a * /newdrive and then removing the old drive and remounting the new one as /home. Does anyone see a problem with this? Is there something I'm overlooking that would cause this to not work? Thanks -- Nick Lomonte Network Engineer Eonet [EMAIL PROTECTED] 409.833.1700

No need to restart qmail. Just send the message to a box that doesn't exist and it should bounce back to you. Qmail checks for dot-qmail files before every message delivery.
