So what I did was to modify the init scripts to work like the openvpn scripts for multiple instances. /etc/init.d/postfix will start postfix from the normal dir (/etc/postfix) then make a symlnk /etc/init.d/postfix.gate will start postfix from /etc/postfix.gate and so forth There are no changes in /etc/conf.d code@edoceo.com 2007-02-14 18:16:18 0000 Created an attachment (id=110185) Modifies /etc/init.d/postfix to support multiple instances like openvn script does This is closely related to the /etc/init.d/openvpn script. It was a copy, paste, tweak job falco@gentoo.org 2008-03-17 18:51:20 0000 Hi David, i implemented it in postfix-2.5.0 and 2.5.1. Please try and report if there is some trouble. Thanks for the idea and the patch. 110185 2007-02-14 18:16 0000 Modifies /etc/init.d/postfix to support multiple instances like openvn script does postfix.patch text/plain LS0tIHBvc3RmaXguZGlzdAkyMDA3LTAyLTExIDE1OjI1OjAxLjAwMDAwMDAwMCAtMDgwMAorKysg cG9zdGZpeAkyMDA3LTAyLTExIDIzOjE3OjMzLjAwMDAwMDAwMCAtMDgwMApAQCAtMywyNyArMywz OSBAQAogIyBEaXN0cmlidXRlZCB1bmRlciB0aGUgdGVybXMgb2YgdGhlIEdOVSBHZW5lcmFsIFB1 YmxpYyBMaWNlbnNlIHYyCiAjICRIZWFkZXI6IC92YXIvY3Zzcm9vdC9nZW50b28teDg2L21haWwt bXRhL3Bvc3RmaXgvZmlsZXMvcG9zdGZpeC5yYzYuMi4yLjksdiAxLjEgMjAwNi8wMy8wNyAyMTow NzoyMCBmZXJkeSBFeHAgJAogCitDT05GX0RJUj0iL2V0Yy9wb3N0Zml4IgorQ09ORl9PUFQ9IiR7 U1ZDTkFNRSMjKi59IgoraWYgW1sgLW4gJHtDT05GX09QVH0gJiYgJHtTVkNOQU1FfSAhPSAicG9z dGZpeCIgXV07IHRoZW4KKwlDT05GX0RJUj0iJHtDT05GX0RJUn0uJHtDT05GX09QVH0iCitmaQor CiBvcHRzPSIke29wdHN9IHJlbG9hZCIKIAogZGVwZW5kKCkgewogCXVzZSBsb2dnZXIgZG5zIHlw YmluZCBhbWF2aXNkIG15c3FsIHBvc3RncmVzcWwgYW50aXZpcnVzIHBvc3RmaXhfZ3JleWxpc3Qg bmV0IHNhc2xhdXRoZAotCXByb3ZpZGUgbXRhCisJaWYgWyAiJHtTVkNOQU1FfSIgPT0gInBvc3Rm aXgiIF07IHRoZW4KKwkJcHJvdmlkZSBtdGEKKwlmaQogfQogCiBzdGFydCgpIHsKLQllYmVnaW4g IlN0YXJ0aW5nIHBvc3RmaXgiCi0JL3Vzci9zYmluL3Bvc3RmaXggc3RhcnQgJj4vZGV2L251bGwK KwllYmVnaW4gIlN0YXJ0aW5nIHBvc3RmaXggKCR7Q09ORl9ESVJ9KSIKKwlpZiBbICEgLWQgJHtD T05GX0RJUn0gXTsgdGhlbgorCQllZW5kIDEgIiR7Q09ORl9ESVJ9IGRvZXMgbm90IGV4aXN0Igor CQlyZXR1cm4gMQorCWZpCisJL3Vzci9zYmluL3Bvc3RmaXggLWMgJHtDT05GX0RJUn0gc3RhcnQg Jj4vZGV2L251bGwKIAllZW5kICQ/CiB9CiAKIHN0b3AoKSB7Ci0JZWJlZ2luICJTdG9wcGluZyBw b3N0Zml4IgotCS91c3Ivc2Jpbi9wb3N0Zml4IHN0b3AgJj4vZGV2L251bGwKKwllYmVnaW4gIlN0 b3BwaW5nIHBvc3RmaXggKCR7Q09ORl9ESVJ9KSIKKwkvdXNyL3NiaW4vcG9zdGZpeCAtYyAke0NP TkZfRElSfSBzdG9wICY+L2Rldi9udWxsCiAJZWVuZCAkPwogfQogCiByZWxvYWQoKSB7Ci0JZWJl Z2luICJSZWxvYWRpbmcgcG9zdGZpeCIKLQkvdXNyL3NiaW4vcG9zdGZpeCByZWxvYWQgJj4vZGV2 L251bGwKKwllYmVnaW4gIlJlbG9hZGluZyBwb3N0Zml4ICgke0NPTkZfRElSfSkiCisJL3Vzci9z YmluL3Bvc3RmaXggLWMgJHtDT05GX0RJUn0gcmVsb2FkICY+L2Rldi9udWxsCiAJZWVuZCAkPwog fQo=
