Reinstalled Liyanage’s PHP 4.3.4 and commented out the two lines as you suggested. Everything’s back working — MySQL, custom PHP stuff, everything. And in under 10 minutes total.

Thanks a heap!

Thanks for the reply. As a relative email newbie I can see this is not what I really want. Or rather this is not what I meant by a backup mail server. Since any mail server, as far as I know, will hold mail for days, I don’t really see much point to this type of backup mail server. I’m looking at situations where the primary mail server site won’t be back for months.

What I have is a disaster recovery mirror site. I don’t want a mailqueue that waits until the primary site is back online but rather mailboxes. In other words I need for mail to go to the mirror site when the primary site is down and users at the mirror site to be able to access their mail there.

The main problem is that if a disaster is declared, I know can change the MX records on the secondary DNS server but it will take too long for that change to propagate through the network. I don’t think mail already queued for the primary site will ever be delivered to the backup site either.

At this point I guess I am looking for suggestions.

Thanks to afp548.com, I’ve had clamav running since I installed 10.3 and I was an early adopter.

There is one thing that is not working, though. If I restart my server, I have to login as clamav and start amavisd and freshclam by hand. The article says I should add a couple lines to an existing startup item, but I don’t know how to do this. Also, I think there is a typo -1 or -l.

Can anyone provide more detail about this final procedure?

I to cannot wait for a good implementation of a autoresponder for the server, as it is just one of thoes very helpful facilities to provide for users – especially in a business setting 😀

I’m not that up on command line kind of stuff, but do want a autoresponder, so have been trawling the net, and discovered this perl programme. It seems to work in that I can turn it on and off in the terminal, but doesn’t seem to actually do what it should do though! It may be something I’m doing or something that someone more knowledgeable can see what’s wrong 😉

The thought of a perl script is tempting if it can work.

The site I found it at is http://www.emailman.com/vacation/index.html

BTW – afp548.com is an excellent site – it’s helped me move in my understand of OS X server

You’ll have to remove the asterisks and their contents, placed there for obvious reasons.

Thanks 🙂

If you can’t post the source directly to the list, let me know and I’ll send my email address.

At least you are not alone. 🙂 Unfortunately, so far no one has been able to provide much assistance. I have this question on a couple of different forums but this seems to have everyone stumped. I guess there is just no decent debugging capability available that might give us some kind of direction.

This is very frustrating 👿

I cannot get this to work and no matter what I try it is the same error, “Pass phrase incorrect.” There must be something very basic that I am missing that is assumed rather then explained by MacTroll’s article.

Getting desperate here. TIA.

Thanx in advance[/quote:56b1a4d4bb]

Did anyone get the Symantec 200R VPN to work with an Apple?

I’ve been there 4 years ago moving from 6.5 to 10.2. I didn’t try to automatically move the users, I just recreated them on the server. That way you know what you have.

I worry a lot of things that promised to transfer automatically anything. Unless you have thousands of users, it is only at most an afternoon I guess for a hundred or less. Provided your share point are setup in advance.

Try using a fixed IP and DHCP, I know it would be more fun to use pure DHCP but I wasn’t able to get that to work either until I try the fix IP.
Let me know it this works.

I have it running on my 12″ powerbook. I imaged a lab of 30 computers from it.
The rpms were red lined and I don’t think I will again try 30 computers at once. It works great for imaging in the field.

Although it wasn’t fun, that did get rid of the random state error. However, I still get and invalid pass phrase error and httpd won’t start.

Is there a way with an openssl command to verify the server.crt passphrase?

[Anonymous]

I’d like to add my voice to this problem as I get the same thing in addition to an invalid pass phrase error.

I tried to use MacTroll’s article (https://www.afp548.com/articles/panther/sslinfo.html) to set up SSL on my panther server. BTW, Thanks Mactroll, for going to the trouble.

I am reasonably confident I followed the steps (several times) but I keep getting an Invalid pass phrase error when I enable SSL and start the service. The only thing I can think of is the common name. I made it the fully qualified name required for DNS resolution although I am a little fuzzy on what ‘common name’ means. If anyone can point me in the right direction I would appreciate it.

P.S. One thing I noticed is that after answering the question about committing the signature it updated the data base but I get a message that says “unable to write ‘random state'”. If this means the commit actually failed and is the crux of my problem how do I correct that?

Thanks.
