First, treat this like a normal upgrade - looks like you did that part.

Now, a little background so you will know what's going on...

Under normal conditions your mail server will create one instance of 
Message Sniffer for each message.

Usually this means that more than one of these might be running at once.

Beginning with version 2-2, when more than one of these is running at the 
same time the group will coordinate to elect one of them as a server so 
that the others can be clients and avoid loading the rulebase. This is 
cellular peer-server technology. This speeds thins up a lot and reduces the 
loads on the server.

Although cellular peer-server technology makes things very efficient, there 
are still some times that more than one instance might elect to be a 
server, and under lower system loads when only one message at a time is 
being processed that could mean the rulebase is loaded for every message. 
This can slow down other processes on your server... Also, if you are 
running a system that somehow will only scan one message at a time through 
Message Sniffer you will be guaranteed to load the rulebase every time 
because there will never be more than one instance running. So... there is 
clearly room for improvement.

Beginning with version 2-3, you can launch an instance of Message Sniffer 
outside of your mail server and run it in persistent mode. This instance 
will look to the others like it has already been elected as the server - so 
every time your mail server launches an instance to process a message, that 
instance will elect to be a client and so it will not load the rulebase.

In version 2-2, and in 2-3 when there is no persistent instance running, 
server instances show up as needed to save a good deal of computing power 
and make things go quickly on the server. Version 2-3 implements the same 
cellular peer-server technology as version 2-2.

However, with version 2-3 when a persistent instance is running then 
messages are always processed by clients so things are very efficient and a 
bit more predictable. The persistent instance tricks the peers into 
following a client-server model. For safety, if the persistent instance 
crashes or goes away for some reason then things drop back to normal.

To take the second step and use persistence - you need to run one extra 
instance of Message Sniffer and replace the message file name on the 
command line with persistent. This instance will stay alive between 
messages and act as a persistent server.

On Win32 systems you can run this instance as a service using the Win 2K 
toolkit or a utility like FireDaemon, or RunSvcExe. Unix type systems will 
probably launch this instance in a script at boot time and detach it like 
any other daemon.

Here's a link to the mail archive that will help with the details and get 
you started:

http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg00165.html

Here's another useful thread for the Unix folks...

Hi _M

Just a quick note on monitoring:

I for one would *love* to see something like what you've mentioned below - A
scoreboard file that could be used to graph or otherwise provide pretty
'Management Information' would go a very long way indeed. 
It's a bit like your comment about a program being seen to be working - this
monitoring info could really demonstrate the power and speed of message
sniffer as well as help all those admins keep their management happier :)

Yes. Sorry for the confusion.

The production version should normally produce _no_ text output. This is
normal.

The Polling messages in the beta were only for tuning and debugging. Now
that the engine is out of testing those messages have been removed. Since
it's supposed to be running as a lightweight service it's presumed that
nobody would be watching.

I have plans to develop performance monitoring code which posts to a
scoreboard file but those plans are not high on the list (in fact they are
currently shelved).

If there is a strong desire for monitoring features and messages then I will
think about putting these plans back on the development schedule.

Hope this helps,

[sniffer] Message Sniffer Version 2-3 Official Release!

2004-05-09 Thread Pete McNeil
2004-05-08 - Message Sniffer Version 2-3 Official Release!

We are proud to release the newest version of Message Sniffer. This version
includes important performance and system integrity improvements including
full rulebase integrity checking to protect against corrupted or failed
rulebase downloads and persistent instance support which allows Message
Sniffer to run as a lightweight service.
This new version of Message Sniffer Screams! when using the new
Persistent Instance option consistently achieving message scans in tens
of milliseconds without the need for high-end hardware or additional
network resources. While comparable anti-spam solutions can take several
seconds to process each message, this new version of Message Sniffer can
consistently produce accurate results in small fractions of a second. This
means that Message Sniffer is typically two orders of magnitude (as much as
100 times!) faster than many other anti-spam solutions without sacrificing
accuracy!
Version 2-3 also includes a number of additional features including
Rule-Panic entries to mitigate critical false positive issues immediately
without reverting to backups, on-demand log file rotation to make
management tasks easier, and adjustable logging levels to reduce the size
of log files when full details are not required.
Get the newest distribution from our Try-It page:

Step-by-step instructions will depend on how you intend to run the 
persistent instance.

The first step in all cases is simply to replace your .exe files with the 
ones in the new distribution. Be sure to rename (brand) the snfrv2r3.exe 
file for your license ID of course.

The way I run a persistent instance is using RunSvcExe, others have 
reported good results with Fire Daemon. Links to these are on the 
SnifferBasics page along with the basic command line for starting a Message 
Sniffer instance in persistent mode.

Essentially, launch sniffer with the word persistent in place of the usual 
file name to be scanned.

Here is a link to earlier discussions along with some more detailed 
information about getting a persistent instance set up. Follow the thread 
through and you will find more than one example:

I'm not ready to do that yet, but it does seem like a good idea. I'll look 
into the scripting this week and see if I can come up with something slick 
for that purpose. First priority is to avoid breaking anything that's 
already happy.

I _may_ simply run a conversion on anything with .gz in the file name 
before beginning the normal scan process. This way folks will be able to 
upload logs either way.

I have to think through the implications first though.

  Should we be able to just replace our .exe file with this one
 
  Yes. It will act just like the current version.
  The persistent server option doesn't take effect until you launch an 
  instance in persistent mode. Until then (or if the persistent server
 fails)
  the program will act exactly like version 2-2, except that you can 
  still configure the log format if you wish.
 
  Most importantly the snf2check.exe utility is much improved with 
  this new version.

Yes. It will act just like the current version.
The persistent server option doesn't take effect until you launch
an instance in persistent mode. Until then (or if the persistent
server
   fails)
the program will act exactly like version 2-2, except that you can
still configure the log format if you wish.
   
Most importantly the snf2check.exe utility is much improved with
this new version.

Don't know, since I have not been running the persistence feature until
today, and I am running it as a service rather than executing it from the
command prompt.

Start xx.exe x persistent
I've not tried running it that way - though it should work if you're 
willing to remain logged in. Normally you would run the persistent instance 
using a utility that allows it to run as a service.

At any rate - there are only cosmetic differences between the beta and the 
release version - and the release version has been running live on our 
server for more than 48 hours without a hitch.

Can you be more specific about what you mean by stopped working ?
Did it crash with an error?
Did it crash without an error?
Some other indication?
Please note: the production version of the persistent mode does not produce 
any output under normal conditions. The beta version did emit a number of 
messages for debugging and monitoring purposes. If you are seeing a blank 
screen where the persistent instance is running that would be normal.

Hope this helps,
_M

Same problem here.  (MDaemon ver. 7.01 - Latest)

I've replaced the old .exe with the new 2.3 and renamed it with my license.
Is there anything else?
Persistent now hangs when executed.  Are we not supposed to see the
'polling' anymore?
Yes. Sorry for the confusion.

The production version should normally produce _no_ text output. This is 
normal.

The Polling messages in the beta were only for tuning and debugging. Now 
that the engine is out of testing those messages have been removed. Since 
it's supposed to be running as a lightweight service it's presumed that 
nobody would be watching.

I have plans to develop performance monitoring code which posts to a 
scoreboard file but those plans are not high on the list (in fact they 
are currently shelved).

If there is a strong desire for monitoring features and messages then I 
will think about putting these plans back on the development schedule.

Hope this helps,

Not to cause trouble, but I did get comfortable with the polling output.  At
a glance, I could see heavy incoming traffic. But there's other ways for
monitoring that...
Just to be 100% clear:  I've attached 2 files.
1) Old ver - Polling text output
2) New ver - Unpolling text output
The unpolling text output (DOS Box) still needs to remain open at all times
(even though it is running as a service).
I only ask because on the surface it looks like it's just hanging (Curses
just blinks).
Yes.

The production version is nearly identical to the beta version except that 
it does not produce any monitoring messages. Your images look correct.
