I've got a couple of issues. I'm in the process of migrating a cluster of qmail servers to MySQL backend for authentication, and have a question:
I'm set up to use vpopmail:relay table to track pops, and I've applied the tcpserver patch to also use vpopmail:relay to store info on 'always-allowed' relaying from our own IPs. My questions: 1 - Previously, with .cdb arrangement, we used the form "192.168.0." to permit relaying from any machine in that /24 network. How do I specify the same using vpopmail:relay?? When I've tried using the same form, it appears not to work. Do I need to insert each IP individually? (that'd be ugly, with a /21 public network and roughly the same size in combined private networks, but if that's the way then that's the way...) 2 - Allowing 'permanent' relaying - Do I just use a ridiculously high timestamp? 3 - How did I end up with entries like this in vpopmail:relay??? | 216.26.255.33 | 1080657350 | | 216.26.255.65.41.4 | 108036425024 | I've got (currently) two qmail/vpopmail nodes in the cluster running on the MySQL backend, and a third still on cdb (until we're assured of the stability of the new setup). Because of this split, I've written a small perl program that periodically synchronizes the two - it reads in open-smtp, reads in all entries from the relay table, removes the earlier of any duplicates, then inserts/updates entries in the db and writes a new open-smtp. j -- "Not all those who wander are lost." - JRR Tolkien
