Chmod and chown

2005-01-18 by Mattias Pettersson

I'm having problems to get my milter to read my greylist.conf. It's 
in the right place but seems to be ignored. Can someone please tell 
me how to chown and chmod greylist.conf, greylist.db and the sock for 
optimum performance?

greylist.conf should be readdable by the user that runs milter-greylist.
greylist.db should be readable and writable, and the socket's directory
should be writable.

Perhaps the "no newline at the end bug" is still there.
Check that the config file ends with a newline.

If you se the output
	unknown token .. at line ...
when the file gets loaded, this might be the case.

The bug is that ALL configuration is discarded.

The new line was there, but I had an error earlier. So the bug is
still there, but thanks to you I found the error that caused my
problem and now everything is working again.
