NAME
qmail-newu - prepare address assignments for qmail-lspawn
SYNOPSIS
qmail-newu
DESCRIPTION
qmail-newu
reads the assignments in
/var/qmail/users/assign
and writes them into
/var/qmail/users/cdb
in a binary format suited
for quick access by
qmail-lspawn.
If there is a problem with
users/assign,
qmail-newu
complains and leaves
users/cdb
alone.
qmail-newu
ensures that
users/cdb
is updated atomically,
so
qmail-lspawn
never has to wait for
qmail-newu
to finish.
However,
qmail-newu
makes no attempt to protect against two simultaneous updates of
users/cdb.
The binary
users/cdb
format is portable across machines.
