1) the /etc/init.d/spamassassin script never seems to get launched on
startup
is there something else needed?
2) We originally installed/used SA with mailscanner. I tried to convert to
SA-exim but could not get it to start and none of the docs have been updated
to 4.05 the news groups were also 3.x centric.
exim is now out and we ran a rpm -e on mailscanner.
Our current goal is to get spamass-milter working with sendmail.
The /etc/init.d script promised by spamass-milter was not in the contrib
directory
I wrote the following based on the spamassisin and sendmail scripts
*******************
#!/bin/sh
#
# sa-milter This script starts and stops the spamass-milter daemon
#
# description: spamass-milter is a sendmail milter to call Spam Assassin
# to block spam at SMTP time, instead of accepting, queing and
checking.
# Source function library.
. /etc/rc.d/init.d/functions
# Source networking configuration.
. /etc/sysconfig/network
# Check that networking is up.
[ ${NETWORKING} = "no" ] && exit 0
[ -f /usr/local/bin/spamass-milter ] || exit 0
PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
prog=" sa-milter (spamass-milter)"
# See how we were called.
case "$1" in
start)
# Start daemon.
echo -n $"Starting $prog: "
daemon spamass-milter
RETVAL=$?
touch /var/lock/spamass-milter
echo
;;
stop)
# Stop daemons.
echo -n $"Shutting down $prog: "
killproc spamass-milter
RETVAL=$?
rm -f /var/lock/spamass-milter
echo
;;
restart)
$0 stop
$0 start
;;
status)
status spamass-milter
;;
*)
echo "Usage: %s {start|stop|restart|status}\n" "$0"
exit 1
esac
exit 0
*******************
We created the site.config.m4 file (NOT siteconfig.m4 as commented in the
devtools/README) as:
*********
APPENDDEF(`conf_sendmail_ENVDEF', `-DMILTER')
APPENDDEF(`conf_libmilter_ENVDEF', `-D_FFR_MILTER_ROOT_UNSAFE ')
*********
added to the bottom of cf/cf/sendmail.mc
*************
INPUT_MAIL_FILTER(`spamassassin', `S=local:/var/run/sendmail/spamass.sock,
F=, T=C:15m;S:4m;R:4m;E:10m')
*************
To rebuild sendmail for milters we ran:
Build -f site.config.m4
Build clean
Build
Build install
"/etc/init.d/sendmail start" reports in the log
sendmail: WARNING: Xspamassassin: local socket name
/var/run/sendmail/spamass.sock missing
and "/etc/init.d/sa-milter start" reports in the log
spamass-milter: spamass-milter- Version0.1.1
spamass-milter: SpamAssassin Sendmail Milter Plugin
spamass-milter: Usage: spamass-milter <socket>
So we are obviously missing the <socket> argument in the sa-milter script,
but I can not find any hint as to what that value should be, lots of
plaintive calls for help in the newsgroups about this same situation but no
responses.
Could some kind soul please supply the elusive socket value? Also a clue to
why the spamassin script isnt launching would be very welcome.
TIA, Bob
