Thanks Peter for responding. â The logging goes to it's own file (/var/log/spamd.log) Indeed entries are written there for various events. now I see GREY and WHITE records added nicely in the 5.0 spamdb. they are syncing between each other, and the syncpackages seem to be received by the 5.9 nodes but the 5.9 nodes do not register these records in spamdb - any idea why? - any idea how to troubleshoot?

OpenBSD 5.0 was released in 2011. OpenBSD 5.0 has been out of support for a while, but this particular change should not be directly relevant to your particular upgrade scenario. I see you start your spamds with the -v option. That means that you should be able to see log entries for syncs wherever your spamd is set up to log to (check your syslog.conf), something like Aug 22 16:16:27 skapet spamd[65037]: new entry 216.126.230.221 from < cbsupd...@herpprotcol.eu> to <pe...@bsdly.net>, helo reliefs.herpprotcol.eu If you see something similar, your're good for that part at least. -- Peter N.
