[vchkpw] migration
Hey all The servers I have now are Gentoo boxen - and we're migrating to Debian. Following the qmailrocks guidelines, I've been able to bring everything up on my Debian servers with a minimum amount of hassle, but my question regards migration. I was not able to bring vpopmail online with mysql integration on these Debian machines - though vpopmail appears to work without it. My Gentoo box however, does use mysql. This obviously poses something of a problem in terms of migration. From a mysql install of vpopmail to a non-mysql install of vpopmail. First question - I'm going to have to recreate all these email accounts by hand aren't I...? Second question - if we're going with a Non-Sql Integrated (NSI) version of vpopmail we're going to stick with it. How does one migrate data from one NSI-vpopmail server to another? How does it keep track of account information if not with mysql? Thanks everyone, Scott Gamble PS if someone wants to fill in the grey area of bringing vpopmail up with mysql integration amidst this qmailrocks install, I'm sure that'd resolve many of my issues and would be absolutely lovely - but I'm not officially asking here for fear that I'll merely be shunted to the qmailrocks forum for answers that don't appear to be forthcoming (I've already done that).
Re: [vchkpw] Default Folder Creation
Thanks Tom. Actually I already did that - I run Gentoo. Whats next? - Scott Tom Collins wrote: On Feb 18, 2005, at 7:15 PM, Scott Gamble wrote: I don't appear to have that file on my box.

[vchkpw] Default Folder Creation
Hey all New to the mailing list. Dug around, didn't see the answer to this and thought I'd ask. Running qmail/vpopmail/courier on a dual 2.8Ghz Xeon HP DL380 with a gig of ram, driving qmail-1.03-r15 courier-imap-4.0.1-r1 vpopmail-5.4.6-r1 squirrelmail-1.4.4 mysql-4.0.23-r2 what I'd like to happen is (I hope) simple. When creating a user account, only the inbox is created, and I actually need both the Drafts and Sent folders created too lest squirrelmail get choked up. Is there somewhere I haven't found that can make this happen? Thanks Everyone Scott Gamble

Re: [vchkpw] Default Folder Creation
Thanks Tom I don't appear to have that file on my box. Is there a specific location I should look for it, or something else it might be called by chance? already did a #find / | grep vpopmail.c and came up with zilch.

Is there somewhere I haven't found that can make this happen? In vpopmail.c, look for the dirnames constant in make_user_dir(). Add any additional folder names to the list, recompile, and reinstall. If you run qmailadmin, reinstall that as well (since it statically links libvpopmail). -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ You don't need a laptop to troubleshoot high-speed Internet: sniffter.com
