Yes. I'm currently running Cyrus-IMAPD 2.0.17 installed from ports. > What DB version are you running? # pkg_info | grep db db3-3.3.11,1 The Berkeley DB package, revision 3 > Are you exepriencing any DB problems? The only problems I've had happened during upgrading. I've upgraded cyrus-imapd twice on this server, which also implied upgrading cyrus-sasl and db3. And both times after the upgrade the SASL database where passwords are kept was unreadable, which meant users couldn't log in. Seems like the newer cyrus-sasl (built with newer db3) couldn't read the database created with the older version. First time when it happened I just created new passwords for all users (a lot of hassle!). The second time I somehow got it working after 8 hours of mucking around, but by the end of it I was so stoned that I really don't know *what* I did to get it working. Now I seriously fear the day I might need to upgrade Cyrus again. -- Toomas Aas | toomas.aas@raad.tartu.ee | http://www.raad.tartu.ee/~toomas/ * Boy, that lightning came a little clo-********!!*******NO CARRIER
