milter-greylist and IBM/Aix : config error

2006-03-13 by Alain Buys

Hello,

I am trying to install milter-greylist 2.1.3 on AIX .. with more or less
success.

On AIX 5.2 (no maintenance level) or AIX 4.3 (maintenance level 11),
I get the following error message at run time:

config error at line 32: syntax error

This concerns the first ACL whitelist of the file (the original sample
file in this case):

acl whitelist addr 127.0.0.0/8

Same problem if I uncomment a peer entry but then, it crashes with the
following message

Mar 13 08:59:42 xxxxxxx milter-greylist: cannot start MX sync, socket
failed: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

On AIX 5.2, ML 7, both problems seem to be solved and the thing works well
(I couldn't test the MX sync yet).

Unfortunately, ML 11 is the lastest maintenance level for AIX 4.3 :-(

Would you have any idea where things could go wrong ? I'm using
bison-1.875 and flex-2.5.33 but I don't think the problem is there.
Actually, after upgrading from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.2-ML7, the problems
disappeared without needing to recompile anything.


The config error problem is there for all the versions I tried (just in
case): 1.75, 1.4, 1.2, ...
The MX sync problem seems to disappear with 1.4 ...

Thanks in advance for any hint,
