I was wondering about comments on the following: qmail installs into /var/qmail, should this be kept, or would people perfer to see it moving into /usr/local/sbin, or /usr/local/qmail? qmail needs to install I think 7 accounts, I was thinking of just using pw to insert them, or should I ask the user to do so by hand? qmail requires an ln -s to /usr/bin/sendmail to a version of it's own sendmail.. myself in teh script that starts up qmail, I'd like to put in a check to make sure the symlink is still there (not clobbered by a make world, say).. is there an easy way to check for the existance of a symlink verses actual file? That's what I have on the outset, this weekend I'd liek tos ee if I can toss together the port, we'll see what arises then. -- - All we hear is internet gaagaa, internet googoo, internet gaagaa To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
