[SOLVED] cbpolicyd setup with 7.0 GA

[doc_777]

Hey everyone. Long time reader, first post. We have been using zimbra 5.0.12 on ubuntu 8.04LTS x64 along with policyd for gray listing and spam control. Today I upgraded our server to 7.0 GA. I had the "Relay Access Denied" error and found the main.cf was missing after the upgrade. I copied that file from a backup and our mail is sending and receiving ok now. So I moved on to setting up policyd and I cannot seem to find any documentation or really any posts on how to set it up. The posts concerning cbpolicyd seem to go unanswered.

I installed the sqlite before I upgraded. There are no cbpolicyd log files created and no mention of it in the zimbra log. Also if I try and start it by hand it complains there is no cbpolicyd.conf file so it is not being created.

What am I missing here? Is cbpolicyd supposed to work out of the box or do I need to install a stand alone like I had?

Thanks for any pointers.

All that I can find on it so far is that it is included... Is there a web interface like with the stand alone clue bringer? Where are the log files? Where do I adjust the settings for it? netstat does not show anything listening on 10031.


Major New Features Enhancements and Bug Fixes for 7.0:
• ZCS now integrated with ClueBringer PolicyD (cbpolicyd). This is packaged
as part of the zimbra-mta package and configured to run as a daemon on
127.0.0.1:10031. It is integrated with Postfix as a check_policy_service.
The cbpolicyd data base uses sqlite. The default configuration enables
quotas module. See Postfix Policyd. (Bug 8791)

Read the bug report for details, specifically comment #19.

Thank you. I wasted 4 hours here searching the forums and web for a clue. There are hundreds of pages of out dated information on this. If anyone else installs 7.0 and you want to enable cbpolicyd read this:

Bug 8791 – make support for postfix-policyd easier

You basically just need to enable it with:

zmprov ms `zmhostname` +zimbraServiceEnabled cbpolicyd

There's no 'outdated information' in the forums on this feature, it's new in ZCS 7 and this is the initial integration step.

I am not sure what I said was what I meant to say... When they integrated policyd into zimbra all the information before 7.0 concerning setting up policyd / zimbra became outdated. Search google for setting up policyd / zimbra and you will see what I mean. You are correct that there is no outdated information concerning 7.0, in fact, there is no information.

You're right but I was just pointing out that the current implementation is just for the initial Zimbra integration of cbpolicyd - documentation etc. will follow as further changes are made for cbpolicyd.
