Re: [cobalt-users] does cobalt talk to each other?

[Jeff Bilicki <jeffb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello Gary,
    I post pre-releases in rpm format of upcoming updates that Cobalt
will officially release in pkg format at a future date.   These are in
no way official Cobalt releases, also you you might have noticed in the
FTP path the word "experimental".  Also, from
ftp://ftp.cobaltnet.com/pub/experimental/security/README:
"All rpms in this directory ARE in the process of being tested by Cobalt
and are NOT SUPPORTED


Install and use at your own risk!!!!!!


If you find a problems please send it to jeffb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx"

Oops, I messed up! I forgot to change the logrotate entry when moving
from the srpm from RaQ 3 to RaQ 2.

Copy the following shell script to your RaQ 2.
---- Cut Here ----
#!/bin/sh

xferlog=/etc/logrotate.d/proftpd

cat > $xferlog << _EOF_
/var/log/xferlog {
    # ftpd doesn't handle SIGHUP properly
    nocompress
}
_EOF_

chown root.root $xferlog
chmod 644 $xferlog

---- End Script -----
As root type:
$ chmod 700 nameofscript
$ ./nameofscript

Sorry about that.

I have put the new versions on the ftp site, they have correct xferlog
log and have been upped to pre10.
