Hello,
from time to time I observed in the recent years that somewhen my small postfix mailserver stopped functioning and delivering to a simple external smarthost ip address for a single domain. Very simple setup.
At these times I observed that the postfix config file main.cf had a rather current date and settings like networking interfaces postfix would listen on, smarthost ip address and domain name and such were missing from it.
I was kind of thinking to directly edit this main.cf file and put my stuff in there, but meanwhile I wonder if suse has a different approach and where to put my config stuff that during updates and patches even with rewriting main.cf file by some suse mechanism, the proper info gets put in and stays in.
Just a guess you set the postfix config in /etc/postfix/ directly for some stuff that is normally handled via /etc/sysconfig/postfix. 2 options 1. /etc/sysconfig/mail -> MAIL_CREATE_CONFIG="yes" set it to "no" 2. port the stuff you want changed to /etc/sysconfig/postfix darix -- openSUSE - SUSE Linux is my linux openSUSE is good for you www.opensuse.org -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
