This snapshot is being made available to test significant changes since 0.06, which will form the basis of the 0.07 release. Notable changes include a new modular structure, removal of reliance on the sar command, and an easy install script for tarfile users. Sar has been replaced with SNMP, this should improve accuracy, portability and speed - but does introduce a dependency on either the net-snmp or ucd-snmp packages. Users who do not feel comfortable running SNMP on their server may disable the SNMP functions in the config file.

This snapshot is another milestone towards 0.07 and will in all probability be the last snapshot before 0.07 is released. In addition to the changes introduced in the December snapshot this further consolidates functions - to improve execution time. A new graph (Number of files in quarantine) and a man page/pod documentation have been added. Also included is code to rescale the data, to reduce blockiness in the load average graph (and also on the mailbytes graph for low volume users). This works by using MRTG"s ability to scale down the y axis when presenting graphs to permit us to log data which has been scaled up (for example we multiply the load average by 100). Existing data will be scaled automatically on the first run after upgrade. IMPORTANT: users upgrading from the previous snapshots MUST remove the /var/www/html/mailscanner-mrtg/state.info file before upgrading (advisable to remove the cron job too - to prevent it being recreated). To install, unpack the tar file, cd into the unpacked directory and run the install.pl script. Please note that the spec file is not up to date and so it will not be possible to build a functional rpm from it.
