You may need to adjust paths because I use the rpm distro.

# This script will output the contents of a new MailScanner.conf file based
# on an old MailScanner.conf file and a default copy of the new file.
# It is designed for upgrading MailScanner.conf files from one release of
# version 4 to another release of version 4. It will not help with the
upgrade
# from version 3 or earlier to version 4, you still have to do that by hand.

If you are using the RPM distributions then try this:
cd /etc/MailScanner
upgrade_MailScanner_conf MailScanner.conf MailScanner.conf.rpmnew >
MailScanner.new
mv MailScanner.conf MailScanner.old
mv MailScanner.new MailScanner.conf
If you are using the tar distribution so that the old version is in
/opt/MailScanner and the new one is in /opt/MailScanner.new then:
cd /opt/MailScanner.new/etc
../bin/upgrade_MailScanner_conf /opt/MailScanner/etc/MailScanner.conf
/opt/MailScanner.new/etc/MailScanner.conf > MailScanner.new
mv MailScanner.conf MailScanner.old
mv MailScanner.new MailScanner.conf

}
print STDERR <<EOL;
Summary
-------
Read $ReadOldValue settings from old $oldfname
Used $UsedOldValue settings from old $oldfname
Used $UsedDefaultValue default settings from new $newfname
Notes
-----
I would advise you to check on any parameters which are different between
the default new conf file and the conf file you just created, so that you
find any parameters whose default values have changed.
If you ran this with a command like this
upgrade_MailScanner_conf MailScanner.conf MailScanner.conf.rpmnew >
MailScanner.conf.new
then you should do
diff MailScanner.conf.rpmnew MailScanner.conf.new
and check for any differences in values you have not changed yourself.

Subject: tar.gz upgrade question
Hiya,
Has anyone seen an upgrade script for the tar.gz installation of
MailScanner? I have Gentoo and I don't use the RPM of MailScanner, so I was
wondering if someone had developed or considered developing a nice .sh
script that would perform the updates required in an RPM-like fashion. If
not, I'm willing to give it a go and/or work with someone in making a script
that does that.
