Topic: how to enable plugin's - 7b8

[byte]

Saw from SME7 Feature's under qpsmtpd enabled that you can enable plugins in the...

/var/service/qpsmtpd/config/plugins

and


/var/service/qpsmtpd/plugins/

Just wondering is this a template change or something in the...

/sbin/e-smith/df configuration setprop ?

Had a look and cant see where it would go.

Thanks for any guidance

Might have answered me own question...

http://www.oreillynet.com/pub/a/sysadmin/2005/09/15/qpsmtpd.html?page=4

To add the plugin, edit your config/plugins file and put a line like this somewhere near the top. (The order of plugins determines when they run, and you want this one to run early.)

So it's a template job

This might also give some clues.
Search the devinfo posts around 24 August 2005 onwards for some snippets of information regarding enabling the DNSBL plugin (RBL lists) and RHSBL plug in and others generally.

Hi Ray,

Thanks for the link, missed searching the dev list

so to set my virus scanner Bitdefender I would do...

sudo /sbin/e-smith/config setprop qpsmtpd BitDefender enabled
sudo /sbin/e-smith/signal-event email-update
sudo svc -t /service/qpsmtpd

I then do...

sudo /sbin/e-smith/config show qpsmtpd and I now see that BitDefender=enabled

To check it's enabled that plugin I would have expected to see something in the /var/log/qpsmtpd/current i.e virus::clamav hooking data_post where clamav would be BitDefender, but I don't

Does anyone know how to check that the plugins are installed and working? maybe im looking in  wrong log files?!

TIA

Don't limit yourself to that link, also read the thread and later posts as there was some brief discussion about it all.
