by 鱼 June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

Hi, Had figured out how to get passivetrap.pl to work with qmail & vpopmail aliases. In the folder /home/vpopmail/domains/mydomain.com Create .qmail-first:lastname file. In the file, | /path/passivetrap.pl chown vpopmail:vchkpw .qmail-first:lastname If there is no lastname, just leave the lastname, including : out Regards nic

Install instructions
by Eric Henson June 28, 2013

June 28, 2013

Okay, the INSTALL file is fairly decent-a lot better than the online wiki. I now have apache up and serving pages, php+perl installed. There's a section on /etc/aliases, that refers to a "newaliases" command, which I don't seem to have. I'm running Centos 6.4 (minimal). Do I need to install Sendmail or something else? My primary mail infrastructure is Exchange 2010; I can set it to either send SMTP email to spamikaze, or drop the mail as files to a directory. -- ERIC HENSON Solutions Architect for Systems Organization PFSweb | www.pfsweb.com<http://www.pfsweb.com/> p: 972.881.2900 x3104 m: 972.948.3424

spamikaze installation
by Eric Henson June 27, 2013

June 27, 2013

I've started to do the install of Spamikaze, and the installation instructions are...lacking. The database file (spamikaze-mysql.sql) isn't formatted correctly for MySQL 5.x-I had to manually create the tables, columns, and indexes. Should I be using MySQL in the first place? I found an article that said that it will bog down very quickly and to use PostgreSQL instead. And, how do I do the actual install? I used git to clone the repository, do I need to "make install" or something at this point? I guess what I really want to ask is, is this project dead? Or just undocumented? -- ERIC HENSON Solutions Architect for Systems Organization PFSweb | www.pfsweb.com<http://www.pfsweb.com/> p: 972.881.2900 x3104 m: 972.948.3424

Major changes that I can see in my mysqldump are changing from TYPE=MyISAM to ENGINE=MyISAM, and adding a default charset. Should I attach the mysqldump to my next email? Should I zip it or anything? -- ERIC HENSON Solutions Architect for Systems Organization PFSweb | www.pfsweb.com p: 972.881.2900 x3104 m: 972.948.3424 -----Original Message----- From: Todd Lyons [mailto:tlyons@ivenue.com] Sent: Thursday, June 27, 2013 9:22 AM To: Eric Henson Cc: Rob Wise; spamikaze(a)kernelnewbies.org Subject: Re: spamikaze installation I would say to clone the repo from the spamikaze website, then create a project on github.

Hi, I am trying to install the scripts again but I do not want to mess up my existing. Can I change the location of /etc/spamikaze/conf to say /home/dbnsbl/conf instead? Thanks

installation
by 鱼 Nov. 7, 2012

Hi, I managed to load up the sql file by deleting the first 4 lines and change TYPE to ENGINE. I had recycled some deleted email addresses which are still getting spam. Parsed aliases to /opt/spamikaze/scripts/passivetrap.pl. Mysql does not get update. I went through the document again and tried the remaining installation. Tried to run text.pl and encountered error below. [root@fantastic ~]# /opt/spamikaze/scripts/text.pl spamikaze-list.txt install_driver(MySQL) failed: Can't locate DBD/MySQL.pm in @INC (@INC contains: /opt/spamikaze/scripts /usr/local/lib64/perl5 /usr/local/share/perl5 /usr/lib64/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib64/perl5 /usr/share/perl5 .) at (eval 13) line 3. Perhaps the DBD::MySQL perl module hasn't been fully installed, or perhaps the capitalisation of 'MySQL' isn't right. Available drivers: DBM, ExampleP, File, Gofer, Proxy, Sponge, mysql. at /opt/spamikaze/scripts/Spamikaze.pm line 127 remove.cgi and listing.cgi do not run too. Internal Server Error The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request. How do I troubleshoot? Is there a full documentary whereby it will tell me what are all the files are for and where should they reside in the server? Many thanks nic

Howdy! Giving it a shot.
by South Computers Jan. 2, 2012

Jan. 2, 2012

Well, been subscribed forever, meaning to set a copy up, and finally found some time to give it a shot. I know next to nothing about perl, and a bit rusty on my php, so pardon any simple oversights. Here's where I'm at: Trying this on a scientific linux 6 x64 (yet another RHEL rebuild) box. Installed the perl modules. Also at some point realized that in addition to the required ones listed on the docs & wiki, I also needed the CGI module. Done. When creating the database (using mysql), I found the sql dump in the source (and the git) had to have the top lines removed. Was choking on the "--------------------" line when trying to execute the sql. Done. Working with the config.php file: Line 38 needed to be changed to "connect" instead of "mysql_connect". Fine, done. Now getting errors on line 38 when trying to execute one of the php files (trying with spamlisting.php). Getting "Allowed memory size of 134217728 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 523800 bytes) in /var/mydir/config.php on line 38." Tried being lazy and increasing my php limits just for kicks to no avail. Looks like I need to edit the mail code in the config.php. So, being a bit tired, thought I'd just introduce myself & ask if anyone has a quick fix for the mail function lines before I start rewriting the mail portion of the config file, as I have not read through the code of most of the other files yet, and really don't want to break anything else fixing this portion just yet. Thanks! Scott

Feature query
by Todd Lyons July 11, 2011

July 11, 2011

Hello, I'm glad to see that spamikaze development has been renewed. I have not used it yet, but it looks to be something very applicable to my needs...but of course with modifications for my site. My questions mostly address differences in the way that I maintain my own RBL zones and RWL zone and ways to integrate spamikaze into my local config. 1. spamikaze can use a whitelist file. Would it be possible to also make it query one or more RWL zones? Since Net::DNS is already a requirement, no new modules should be needed. 2. I already have my own RBL (custom written perl to add and manage it). I haven't looked yet to see the differences between your schema and mine. In your opinion, is the ability to twist spamikaze into inserting into different types of schema useful? Or is better to just have spamikaze insert the data where it wants and instead use some sort of migrate script to cherrypick the bits of data into my RBL schema? Hmm, I guess I didn't really have much in the way of questions.
