installation instruction

[Peter Peters]

Watch out. This is translated from dutch to english via
http://chaines.free.fr/traduction/.

You should keep the following in mind:
We have a test-server named netlx803. The production servers are named
netlx009 and netlx010. Both are identical. Normally everything is
installed and configured on netlx009. In the relevant directory trees
there are Makefiles copying the new files over to netlx010 so
installation and configuration need only be done on one system. This way
we also keep our aliases and virtusers in sync on both systems.

Installation:
The installation finds place from a tarbal. Because it is in perl
written is there no distinction between source and binaries. Moreover
the standard configuration assumes installation in/usr/local i.p.v./opt
like at our usual.

1) The tarbal gedownload are placed and in ~mail/software/MailScanner on
netlx803.

2) There he is unpacked.

3) Then go to the produced directory.

4) Go to mail scanner/bin.

5) Remove the softlinks in these directory (Sophos.install,
check_mailscanner and tnef)

6) Open resistant the check_mailscanner.linux and modify the directory
/usr/local/MailScanner in /opt/mailscanner in the rules 39 and 40.

7) Kopieer all files to /opt/mailscanner/bin.

8) Go to ../etc.

9) diff -u mailscanner.conf.linux
/opt/mailscanner/etc/mailscanner.conf.linux

10) Check which new configuration options there are and add them to
/opt/mailscanner/etc/mailscanner.conf.linux. In the most cases appear
this simple to do than taking over the local configuration in the new
file.

        Pay attention there, however, to that if there a file name must
be taken over that the correct directory are used
(/opt/mailscanner/etc).
        If there a new file is necessary, kopieer that then from the new
distribution to /opt/mailscanner/etc.
        Change the contents of the file possibly to the UT situation.

11) Go to ../../f-prot.

12) Modify in autoupdate and f-protwrapper the reference to
/usr/local/f-prot in /opt/f-prot.

13) Kopieer both files to/opt/f-prot.

14) Stopper the mail scanner process.

15) Give the command /opt/mailscanner/bin/check_mailscanner. this can to
a number of errors give of SpamAssassin tests. Those is not important.

If appears that he runs on netlx803 well, the same operations can be
carried out on netlx009. Afterwards must in /opt/mail scanner "make" be
run there the modifications on also netlx010 to be carried out to get.
