This document presumes that you will have a server acting as a database with PHP and MySQL installed on it, and multiple MailScanner gateways logging to the database server.
-
Follow steps 1 to 6 from the INSTALL document on the database server.
-
Create a mailscanner user and password on the database server:
% mysql mailscanner
mysql> GRANT ALL ON mailscanner.* TO mailscanner IDENTIFIED BY 'password';
mysql> flush privileges; -
On each MailScanner gateway, you'll need to make sure that the mysql client, perl, perl DBI and perl DBD-Mysql, are installed:
% rpm -qa | grep "mysql"
mysql-3.23.54a-11
% rpm -qa | grep "perl-DB"
perl-DBD-MySQL-2.1021-3
perl-DBI-1.32-5 -
From one of the MailScanner gateway, verify you can connect to the db:
% mysql mailscanner -u mailscanner -h <db_hostname> -p
Enter password: *******
If you get a mysql> prompt, you can connect correctly (enter \q to quit). -
On each MailScanner gateway, do steps 7 to 10 from the INSTALL document, for step 7, you will also need to edit CustomConfig.pm and change the $db_host, $db_user and $db_pass variables to your local settings.
-
To complete the set-up run steps 11 to 15 on the database server.
-
On each MailWatch system set RPC_ALLOWED_CLIENTS in conf.php to a list of IP addresses of each MailWatch system.
