Actually the latest patches there apply to popper 2.52 which is only one rev old, and mostly works cleanly with 2.53 (the current rev), at least as far as I can remember (I may have manually applied one patch?). I haven't made diffs for 2.53 yet :( <snip> > Based on patches picked up from www.westnet.com/providers. > This version uses hash instead of dbm for the virt pop table, > since our FreeBSD sendmail makemap program has hash compiled in, > instead of dbm. > Also fixes a sig 11 bug in patch for pop_init.c, if you don't have > your reverse dns set up properly (yet). The latest version there has an additional patch for FBSD that uses lower level newdb library functions. I was having hair pulling problems with gdbm (I must have been doing something wrong, but I sure can't figure out what). I found what appears to be a bug in some versions of the ndbm compatibility part of the gdbm. Basically I reduced the code down to a pretty simple open, insert, fetch. The fetch would consistently core dump. As such I've written an alternate version of the pop_virtualh.c file that uses the "NEWDB" (#include <db.h>) version of the dbm library. If anyone with a clue wants to tell me what I did wrong, be my guest :) Also - Carol I don't see what you fixed in pop_init.c, I just did a line by line (the formatting changes hoses diff) and I don't see it, if you would be so kind as to point out exactly whats different from the current version.... Zip me a private mail on this one, thanks. <snip> >-=-=-=-=-=-=-<>-=-=-=-=-=-<>-=-=-=-=-=-<>-=-=-=-=-=-<>-=-=-=-=-=-=-< Ryan Mooney Phone (602)265-9188 PCSLink ryan@pcslink.com Internet Services NT is an excellent choice for managers who need to show that they used up their fiscal year budget for hardware/software expenditures. <-=-=-=-=-=-=-><-=-=-=-=-=-><-=-=-=-=-=-><-=-=-=-=-=-><-=-=-=-=-=-=-> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
