One comment though. While checking this, I found out that it's not in the original qmail source, but it comes from one of the applied patches: Frank Denis's qmail-link-sync http://www.thedjbway.org/qmail/patches/qmail-1.03.link-sync.patch > Alternatively, you can just ignore a failure to open. I.e. replace > > if ((fd = open(fnnewtph, O_RDONLY)) < 0 || > fsync(fd) < 0 || close(fd) < 0) goto fail; > > by > > if ((fd = open(fnnewtph, O_RDONLY)) >= 0) > { > fsync(fd); > close(fd); > } This works very well, and is much less intrusive than Guenter's syncdir patch (which actually fsyncs the directory, as you mentioned). Jon, could you please include the fix above in future qmail-src releases ? Thanks, Pablo -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
