I thought that was the purpose of the pyzor discover command? Who maintains 82.94.255.100 as it doesn't get listed with pyzor discover.

The next problem was how to change that IP address in the ~/.pyzor/servers files for all the customers. So I put together a script to do just that. Here is that script in case others want to do the same thing. Thanks, Ken You must put in a servers file in the /etc/skel/.pyzor directory with 82.94.255.100:24441 in the servers file. Script follows: ------------------------------------------------ #! /bin/sh # # This script changes the pyzor server in each users home directory to # the server that is listed in /etc/skel/.pyzor/servers . # This became a problem when the primary server stopped # responding. - knr - 7-07 # # # USERNAME="" cd /home for USERNAME in `ls -d *`; do if [ -d /home/${USERNAME}/.pyzor ]; then if [ -f /home/${USERNAME}/.pyzor/servers ]; then cp /etc/skel/.pyzor/servers /home/${USERNAME}/.pyzor/servers; chown ${USERNAME}:users /home/${USERNAME}/.pyzor/servers; fi fi done
