/etc/rc is tho. once, during boot; after it loads spamd, /etc/rc unconditionally fires of spamd-setup. > By default, spamd is stuttering for 10 seconds, but watching > /var/log/daemon, I also noticed that connections from spews and other > lists are lasting for over 400 seconds. well, if they're from lists that are in the default /etc/spamd.conf, i bet $1 it's /etc/rc that is catching you by surprise. because of spamd-setup being fired, <spamd> is populated with those IPs and then they'll get the stutter forever and ever > Does spamd do anything else with /etc/spamd.conf besides set up white > and black lists? > Does this file effect the stutter or delay of connections? nope; [/etc/spamd.conf] only affects what IPs get called 'black' after the candidate IPs for <spamd> are filled in by the ':black:' stanzas and/or subsequently removed by ':white:' stanzas. whatever's left after the "fill up black, remove white" business gets sent to spamd as "fill up <spamd> with these IPs". /etc/spamd.conf, afaict, is also never read by spamd(8); see above re /etc/rc <G> -- jared [ openbsd 3.9-current GENERIC ( jul 29 ) // i386 ]
