Nominally true, but not a good solution if you can avoid it. If you allow shell access, you therefore effectively allow any user to meddle with any other user's SA prefs, AWL, and Bayes files if you do per-user Bayes as well. :/ What would be needed to keep this decently secure (IMHO) is a way to have SA manage the file ownership and permissions as necessary, probably from spamd running as root. What I found is that since SA doesn't seem to mind having the ~/.spamassassin directories symlinked, they can be on a different partition (assuming you've set up separate partitions for things!) and still retain their permission-based security AND not contribute to the users' quotas. -kgd -- <erno> hm. I've lost a machine.. literally _lost_. it responds to ping, it works completely, I just can't figure out where in my apartment it is. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by OSDN developer relations Here's your chance to show off your extensive product knowledge We want to know what you know.
