SingleUserUnixInstall ?

To start with, DirectAdmin uses Exim. DirectAdmin does NOT use Procmail. You'd have to make a lot of changes to make this work. Why don't you use the standard DirectAdmin installation of SpamAssassin?

Jeff
 
Because I think bigger is better?

I saw atmail is using SA+Razor+Pyzor+DcC, and I tought that was the best combo.

And now look like I messed around with the system, is there anyway that I can
go back to standard DA setting?

Im using centos64

thank you..

Yes, but I certainly don't know what you've done, and it appears you may not know either. So the only thing I can tell you is to hire someone with extensive DirectAdmin email experience to look at your server's mail systems, piece by piece, and return them to DirectAdmin standard.

After that I highly recommend you make changes/additions one-at-a-time, testing extensively after each change, and being able to roll-back if necessary.

You can do just about everything you want from a custom exim.conf file; it's very configurable. But everything has to be done quite methodically so if you do something that doesn't work, you can undo it before you move forward.

Jeff
 
thank you for your explanation,

I search and found this:
http://www.directadmin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=26888

But yes, maybe back to basic is best choice.

Oh, and btw when I try to tail /var/log/exim/mainlog it showed hundreds or maybe thousand line like this:

===========

Is that mean that our DA server has been compromised ?

Last time we use Andy service (servertune.com) to do security patch to at our server and things go well.

Rightnow we upgrade to the newest 64bit amd server, and want to try service from other company such as:

1. http://serverwizards.com/security.php
(linux adv sec)
2. http://www.logicsupport.com/serversecurity.php
(phase 3 sec)

which one is better solution?
 
Not if it says authentication required. It looks like a brute force attack on your server.
 
omg... :confused:

What should I do?
Or I must use ELS? or just asked serverwizard/logicsupport to do the task?



==============

I try to turn on http://help.directadmin.com/item.php?id=142
But I got:

2009-06-24 22:05:52 failed to open /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains for linear search: No such file or directory
2009-06-24 22:06:55 failed to open /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains for linear search: No such file or directory

Is this kb is still applicable?
 
use_rbl_domains is a simple file (it starts out empty, but you add into it the domain names (copy them from the /etc/virtual/domains file); Depending on how old is your installation of DirectAdmin you may not have any of the files required for SpamBlocker to run. The file should have the same ownership and rights as the domains file.

If you're running SpamBlocker version 2 (the DirectAdmin default), the README is here. If you're running SpamBlocker verison 3 (you or someone working for you would have had to install it), then the README is here.

hi jeff,

we use the new spamblocker3, and I believe i've done everything in the README.

" use_rbl_domains is a simple file (it starts out empty, but you add into it the domain names (copy them from the /etc/virtual/domains file) "

Could you explain it to me more detail?
inside /etc/virtual/domains file, there are the list of the domains.
Do you mean that I must copy all the domains list to /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains ? and than start the procedure again?


thank you.

As you've just noticed, sometimes it takes me a few days between visits to the forums :(.
" use_rbl_domains is a simple file (it starts out empty, but you add into it the domain names (copy them from the /etc/virtual/domains file) "

Could you explain it to me more detail?
inside /etc/virtual/domains file, there are the list of the domains.
Do you mean that I must copy all the domains list to /etc/virtual/use_rbl_domains ? and than start the procedure again?
You can. But you can also automate it by deleting the use_rbl_domains file and from a root shell, create a link (a regular link will work but I use a symbolic link because it acts as documentation as to which is the parent and which the link):
Code:
# cd /etc/virtual
# ln -s domains use_rbl_domains

Clean your mail queue.
