Re: [opensuse] Update Hylafax 4.4 to 6.03 with src.rpm on OpenSuSE 10.3

I completely disable these in my config. Instead, I use the following sudoers
entries.

wwwrun ALL= NOPASSWD: /usr/sbin/faxdeluser, /usr/sbin/faxadduser -u * -p * *

That way, the only way permissions given to wwwrun are faxdeluser and
faxadduser. Bouncing or halting the server is reserved for normal management
by ssh.

That's my line of thinking too :)

This is where managing avantfax as a normal web app helps. All you need is
+1 Being out of step with the rest of the Linux distros and the packager
itself makes it near impossible to stick to the "pristine" source rpm
philosophy.

You obviously failed to notice that I had quoted you and did not take
your POV :) IMO it *is* a good decision to use /var/spool/fax.


Regardless of the amount of work these two packages need to be packaged for
openSuSE, it is 100% worth the effort.

Hmm, how about you maintaining it with me as a co-maintainer?
