The IP addresses for shank have changed. The new address is 108.10.142.57. The old address, 192.217.247.78, is going away very soon.

I've updated nameservice and apache to listen for the new address. Everything else should be listening on both addresses until .247.78 goes away. It might take 24-48 hours for the DNS change to propogate.

If you notice any problems with the switch, notify me immediately.

I've had spamassassin and clamscan installed for a while but never got around to why they weren't actually scanning the email :-) They're running now.

If you noticed, there was a period of several hours where some mail wasn't passing through due to a permissions problem between qmail scanner and clamd. That's been fixed and now shank is working on a huge queue of email (spam!)

I've set up a new system to help keep track of problems and feature requests from you. It's hosted on a separate server, so if shank goes down you'll hopefully still be able to reach buttons. The link is in the column on the right.

Your customer name is used as your userid and password. You may change that when you log in.

Status:
vixie-cron is up and running. That's pretty basic, it should've been in the initial image. :-/

Status:
squirrelmail is installed and partially configured. if you had lots of addressbook entries, they will return soon. i have to do some more work on the mysql database and phpmyadmin.

Status:
Whoops, I had the path wront to checkvpw in the pop3 config. NOW it works.

Status:
mysql is now running. Let me know if you have problems with that. Also I had the wrong version of "checkpassword" in the pop3 config. I put in "checkvpw" for virtual user mail and restarted the daemon.

Status:
Virtual-user mail appears to be working. I also turned on pop3. You should be able to relay mail through shank as before too, I fixed the smtp-auth and should work with a secure connection.

Merry Christmas!

Only thing I accomplished today was setting allow_url_fopen in php.ini and restarting the webserver. I'm off tomorrow so I should get more time to resolve the problems with virtual-user email.

Status:
perl cgi works now. If you are getting 500 Internal Server Error, the permissions are more strict now. Make sure your files are chmod 0755 with proper user:group settings.

For some reason mysql thinks it's already running when it's not. It won't bind to the UNIX socket. I'm running out of time today before work. If you have a hint, let me know :-)

Status:
With the reboot, single-drop email is working. Those of you (me included) that use virtual-user email, that still requires more work. So does mysql. Leave me a message if you notice something ELSE that doesn't work.

Status:
I took the server down for a reboot and it hasn't come back up. Waiting for the host. I'm headed off to work so unless they let me go early (not likely) I won't be able to do anything further until tonight. I'm expecing most of the services to operate normally when the machine comes back up.

Status:
Web sites that do not require mysql should be operating properly now.
