[Mimedefang] Re: Permissions on mimedefang.socket

[Danny Kjærgaard]

Hi,

Well that was my first intention but seemed rather buggy, but if thats the onlye way then i have to try it.

Yeah postfix and minedefang works great. Only the socket problem.
I run postfix, mimedefang,sa, clamd more or less right out of the box.

Cheers.
Danny

Really???  And does it work?

You could modify the startup script to wait until mimedefang.socket
appears and then just chmod it.  Something like this:

	rm -f /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.socket
	# Sstart MIMEDefang and the multiplexor, and then...
	for i in `seq 1 10` ; do
	    if test -e /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.socket ; thne
	         chmod 0755 /var/spool/MIMEDefang/mimedefang.socket
		 break
	    fi
            sleep 1
        done


Regards,

David.
