    Anyone had any luck messing around with the dspam web interface and a virtual user setup?

    I have tried it a while back (previous version) and gave up because of problems with the authentication. Couldn't get the password encryption working.

    If someone does get it working I would like to know as well.

    I was able to get the web interface working with my virtual user setup. I used most of the instructions here but I switched to Dovecot for my pop, imap, LDA and SASL needs. I set up suexec to run the dspam cgi with the proper permissions but you have to recompile apache with one addition to the configure script. --enable-suexec is not enough for a Leopard install, it also needs --with-suexec-caller=_www. Then I used the apache passwd program to encrypt a password file and protect a virtual domain that only serves the dspam cgi dspam.mydomain.com . Password instructions here http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/howto/auth.html#gettingitworking

    My dspam directories and the cgi scripts needed some different permissions and groups to run with suexec but I was able to find all the settings on the dspam resources web pages.

    I know, It was bound to happen for a year or two. I hope the webinterface is one of the things that will improve. Besides that the spam filtering is working fine...
