Hi Users, ====== SpamAssassin version 3.2.5 running on Perl version 5.10.0 ======
I'm pretty new to spamassassin and recently been asked to change the flag timeout-child to 180 seconds, its currently set to to 60. I've googled this and some say that this can be changed in /etc/conf.d/spamd however I don't seem to have this file. I've tried using spamd --timeout-child=180 afterwhich i ran a ps aux | grep spamd and here are my results: ====== root 15967 0.1 0.3 31732 29268 ? Ss Oct28 0:01 /usr/sbin/spamd --create-prefs --max-children 8 -u mail --helper-home-dir *--timeout-child=180 *-d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid ====== However when I restart the spamassassin deamon and run ps aux | grep spamd, it goes back to what it was set before the my change: ====== root 15967 0.1 0.3 31732 29268 ? Ss Oct28 0:01 /usr/sbin/spamd --create-prefs --max-children 8 -u mail --helper-home-dir * --timeout-child=60* -d --pidfile=/var/run/spamd.pid ====== So it does seem to have a config file for where it is reading from. My question is: 1. Where would it be? or 2. How do I find it? As mentioned, I'm pretty new at this so if you need me to provided further details please let me know. Many Thanks Keith
