1) I have a qmail/vpopmail/mysql setup (someone else did) and I see that the "vlog" database is eating up disk space. It's only growing and not shrinking or being pruned of old entries. At this rate the disk will fill in the next 60 days. I googled around but found nothing on managing the vpopmail databases. Is "vlog" even part of vpopmail or something the last admin did for inhouse customization? If it IS part of vpopmail can I delete old entries or at least shrink the log?
2) My MySQL 5 server is pretty beefy. The connections max at 500 and usually average about 50. However, when we get extremes fits of email and connections start creeping up on 400, 450 the server crawls SOOOO slow that VPOPMAIL fails to authenticate out of timeout. The server load goes from .16 to 2 and 3 but the instant I restart MySQL it's rite back down to .5 then .3 and .15 again as all the backed up requests from the other mail servers are processed.
Below are my server variables and stats: Initially I dropped the wait_timeout from 8 hours to three minutes which reduced the connections significantly but still I'm having this random overload issue.
I am aware that there is a qmail-ldap package to have ldap back end for qmail. But I need only user authentication for qmail through ldap (not the backend; i.e still keeping Mysql as the database). I am pretty new to mail server configuration. I have just configured a (q)mail server (which is currently my sand box) and am able send and receive emails. I am planning to add ldap authentication (just that) to it. Can anyone point me to the right direction?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI am a non-root user, and have made a directory into which other users in my group can write. The directory is setgid, so files and directories within it have the same group.I can delete files placed into this directory, but if a user creates a subdirectory with files in it, I can't seem to delete those. Is there something special I can do (other than, say, bothering the user in question or the sysadmin about it) to get rid of this subdirectory?
EDIT: Inevitably, of course, someone asks "why?"The shared folder in question is a mercurial repository. We can't use a shared-account ssh-key-based server for this like mercurial-server, and we can't just host it externally for various reasons. But that part works fine.We use Redmine for project management, but it does not yet read the repo index for file contents - it reads the working directory. So the working directory must be kept up-to-datecrontab has been disabled by the sysadmin, so that's out. So I naïvely put a changeset hook in the shared repo that performed an "hg update". This seemed to work fine initially, until, of course, someone pushed a commit with a new directory. While I had vague thoughts of trying to make a setuid script for the hook, I'll probably just consider safer avenues.
I have a laptop that I was dual booting with Windows 7 and Ubuntu. I used the MSFT disk manager to delete the partitions. I made sure my windows live cd was working, which it was, before doing this. But now, when I boot my computer, it won't run the cd. All I get is
error: no such partition. and then a command prompt: grub rescue>
I made sure my boot priority was set to boot from the CD first.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a large number of zip-archives which I would like to extract and then delete, keeping only the extracted files. The files are located in a number of directories and I issued the following command, hoping that it would solve my problem (which it didn't):
Code:find . -name "*.zip" -execdir unzip '{}' ; -deleteWhat happened was that find continued to extract the files as intended, but then it deletednot only the zip-archives but also the newly extracted files.it only affected a portion of the files that I had already backed up.I don't have enough space on my hard drive to extract all the files without simultaneously removing any data and I don't have the energy to go through all the directories one by one manually. Surely there must be a better way. Is there a way to fix the code snippet above so that it works as I intended or is there a better way of doing this?
