You might have better luck if you subscribe to the MailScanner mail
list -

That's a possibility but I've discounted it as this ia a compiler issue and
not an operational issue.

The fact that the MailScanner web site has foucused downloads for
Linux RPM (Fedora, RedHat, Mandrake and other Linux) and Free BSD,
(Solaris, BSD, Other Linux, and Other UNIX) versions with nothing
listing SCO tends to suggest the "SCO not welcome" mindset common
of most Linux developers.

The lack of respnse is likely due to the long posting. Questions
like "Mail Scanner won't compile - why?" get frequent responses with
requests for more information. Too much invormation (like in my
original post) are too much to digest and get little response.

Not sure it's a mind set. It's where most of the open source
development exists.

Mea culpa. I finally gave up with the SCO DevSys and installed
gnutools5.0.7Kj and reverted to the original tarball from
MailScanner-install-4.62.9. to compile with gcc.

I did have to modify one file to get the script to run:

# diff install.tar-fns.sh ../test/MailScanner*/install.tar-fns.sh
9c9

> < Modified original >
< TARPATH="/usr/gnu/bin /usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/sfw/bin /usr/freewar
e/bin /usr/bin /usr/sbin /bin"
---
> TARPATH="/usr/local/bin /usr/local/sbin /usr/sfw/bin /usr/freeware/bin /usr/bi
n /usr/sbin /bin"

With the addition of /usr/gnu/bin to the TARPATH, "sh -x install.sh > /tmp/logit.log 2>&1"
ran without critical errors and reported only one compile failure:

# Looks like you failed 6 tests of 159.
dubious

I've yet to turn it on and test it but I did run the recommended root
crontab entries manually:

> 42 * * * * /opt/MailScanner/bin/update_virus_scanners
> 3,23,43 * * * * /opt/MailScanner/bin/check_mailscanner

I had to modify update_phishing_sites and add /usr/gnu/bin to
the existing PATH statement:

> PATH=/usr/gnu/bin:/bin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin:/usr/etc:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sfw
> /bin

I Tested check_mailscanner and it died without starting the not
running mailscanner at the line I've commented out:

sh -x /opt/MailScanner/bin/check_mailscanner
> + fgrep SCO
> + ps -e -o pid -o args
> + fgrep /opt/MailScanner/bin/MailScanner
> + grep -v grep
> + sed -e s/^ *// -e s/ .*//
> pid=
> + [ x = x ]
> + ulimit -n 2000
> /opt/MailScanner/bin/check_mailscanner: bad option(s)



if [ "x$pid" = "x" ]; then
# Quietly try to raise the open_files limit
> # ulimit -n 2000 >/dev/null 2>&1
# Restart it
PATH=${msbindir}:$PATH
echo -n 'Starting MailScanner...'
cd $msbindir
$process $config || RETVALUE=" Failed."
echo "$RETVALUE"
else
if [ "x$1" != "x-q" ]; then
echo MailScanner running with pid $pid
fi
fi

Once the ulimit -n 2000 line was commented out, check_mailscanner
restarted (in this case started) mailscanner.

And last my comment about ignoring SCO above is belied by the
code I found in check_mailscanner:

.....
RETVALUE=" Done."
# If this does not work on your system, please don't
# just send us a version that does, please please please
# send example output that demonstrates *why* it doesn't
# work, what version of what system you are running etc.
# If you do this then I *will* make this work right for
# everybody.
# -- Nick Phillips

if $UNAME | $FGREP "SunOS" >/dev/null ; then
# Version for Solaris/SysV systems:
pid=`/usr/ucb/ps auxww |
egrep $msbindir/$process'|'$process'[:]' |
grep -v grep |
awk '{print $2}'`
elif $UNAME | $FGREP "HP" >/dev/null ; then
# Version for HP-UX
pid=`ps -efx |
fgrep $msbindir/$process |
fgrep -v fgrep |
awk '{print $2}'`
> elif $UNAME | $FGREP "SCO" >/dev/null ; then
pid=`ps -e -o pid -o args |
fgrep $msbindir/$process |
grep -v grep |
sed -e 's/^ *//' -e 's/ .*//'`
elif $UNAME | $FGREP "Linux" >/dev/null ; then
pid=`$PS axww |
$EGREP $process'[:]|\['$process'\]|[ ]'$msbindir/$process |
awk '{ print $1 }'`
elif $UNAME | $FGREP "BSD" >/dev/null ; then
pid=`$PS -axww |
$EGREP '[ ]('$msbindir/$process')|'$process'[:]' |
$AWK '{print $1}'`
elif $UNAME | $FGREP "OSF" >/dev/null ; then
pid=`ps -e -o pid -o args |
$GREP '[ ]'$process |
grep -v grep |
awk '{ print $1 }'`
elif $UNAME | $FGREP "Darwin" >/dev/null ; then # ie Mac OSX
pid=`$PS axww |
$EGREP '[ ]('$msbindir/$process')|'$process'[:]' |
$AWK '{print $1}'`
else
# not BSD; everything else seems to do POSIX
pid=`COLUMNS=500 $PS -ef |
$EGREP '([ ]'$msbindir/$process')|'$process'[:]' |
$AWK '{print $2}'`
fi

So once I have this running on 5.0.7, I'll be reporting my
modifications to the source maintainer for possible inclusion
in the next release.
