[vchkpw] Roaming users / POP toasters

2004-02-26 Thread John 








How are people on this list using “POP before SMTP”
(Roaming users) when their POP3 server is separate from their SMTP
server?  The way that I understand that roaming users work is that once
you pop in and check mail, the POP3 server rebuilds the tcpserver cdb file with
the user’s IP address added as RELAYCLIENT.  How does the separate
SMTP server receive this file in a timely manner?  Are you NFS mounting
the tcpserver CDB file?  If so, how is performance in this scenario?

 

Thanks for any response.

We do it, but we are using MySQL auth. The servers only 
need to see the sql server to get the information. Im also
using the tcpserver patch so as to not have to rebuild the 
cdb file.
