Hi folks, OpenBSD 4.0 x86_64 Postfix-2.4.3 Mysql ($ mysql --version mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.24a, for unknown-openbsd4.0 (x86_64) using readline 4.3) According to; http://www.postfixvirtual.net/postfixconf.html#postfix I issued following SQL commands to create a database named "mail" and a user "vmailuser" with password "password123" $ mysql -u root -p Enter password: Code: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 7 to server version: 5.0.24a-log Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql> CREATE DATABASE mail; Query OK, 1 row affected (0.03 sec) mysql> GRANT all privileges on mail.* TO vmailuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'pass word123' ; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec) mysql> GRANT all privileges on mail.* TO [email protected] IDENTIFIED BY 'pass word123' ; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> use mail; Database changed mysql> show tables; Empty set (0.03 sec) mysql> \q Bye No complaint indicated. Coming to "Create SQL FILE", on which directory shall I create the file "postfix_virtual.sql" so that it can be evoked on running; # mysql -u root -p < postfix_virtual.sql What shall be its owner and permission ??? I'll copy the script there on the file. UID and GIU are 2007. Shall I add "use mail" as the first line of the scrip Please advise. TIA What other attention I have to pay ??? B.R. satimis
The file postfix_virtual.sql must already exist, and you must run the above command in the directory where postfix_virtual.sql is. Doesn't matter, but the file must be readable. Depends on what is in the postfix_virtual.sql file. If it begins with Code: use mail; , then you don't have to type it in; otherwise you must type it in.
Hi falko, Your advice noted with tks.
