Thank you very much Sam!
I neglected to mention this is on a linux mandrake 7.2 installation with
qmail + vpopmail + sqwebmail on a PII 266 with 128 megs of ram if that
helps/matters.
I hate to be a total idiot but unfortunately I think I might be. From what
I remembered and from man patch I tried the following:
[root@mail qmail]# rm -rf sqwebmail-1.2.5/
[root@mail qmail]# tar zxvf sqwebmail-1.2.5.tar.gz
[root@mail qmail]# cp sqwebmail.patch sqwebmail-1.2.5/sqwebmail.patch
[root@mail qmail]# cd sqwebmail-1.2.5
[root@mail sqwebmail-1.2.5]# patch sqwebmail.patch
It just hangs forever (30 minutes? how long should I wait?) at
[root@mail sqwebmail-1.2.5]# ps waux | grep patch
root 2369 0.0 0.3 1120 420 pts/0 S 18:25 0:00 patch
sqwebmail.patch
[root@mail sqwebmail-1.2.5]# ls -la sqwebmail.patch
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 513 Mar 12 18:24 sqwebmail.patch
If anyone sees this, could you please show me what I should have done?
I do not think I corrupted the file format when I named it to
sqwebmail.patch but the one thing I did notice was this line:
RCS file: /cvsroot/courier/courier/webmail/newmsg_newdraft.c,v
Should I change the patch file at all or use a different one for use with
qmail? Did I use the patch command incorrectly? I thought (hoped) that on
this linux-mandrake 7.2 machine that patch will just ignore that RCS line.
By the way this entire setup will be eventually moving to the new OpenBSD
machines I recently built so maybe someone has some tips for me when this
qmail+vpopmail+sqwebmail is all there and actually working, if anyone has
any tips please write back.
Thanks again
