Manao ahoana, Hello, Bonjour, I use a Postfix 2.5.5, the one embeded in Debian Lenny. I have to physically move the server to another hardware. The server IP wont be the same (it doesn't matter, may be). It's a receiving server so I dont want the move to generate greylist, in order to disturb the least our users. What would be your recommended way to copy greylisting informations? - hard copying /var/lib/postgrey/ content - scripting something (Perl with what modules?) to dump and restore db files? Here is the /var/lib/postgrey/ structure in here: /var/lib/postgrey/ |-- __db.001 |-- __db.002 |-- __db.003 |-- __db.004 |-- __db.005 |-- log.0000000054 |-- postgrey.db |-- postgrey.lock `-- postgrey_clients.db
The limiting factor is the berkeley db version used by the new server. To be safe you can try dump and restore, but maybe a copy of the files and db_upgrade would be sufficient. Either way you should keep a backup of the db files around. I would do a dump while the old server is running and a restore on the new server not yet in production. You will loose some entries this way but this should not be a problem after all.
Regards Andreas
