exim_dbmbuild - program to build a database file for exim |

!!DESCRIPTION |

The exim_dbmbuild program reads an input file in the format |
| |
|
21 |
of an alias file (see chapter 20) and writes a DBM database |
| |
|
22 |
using the lower-cased alias names as keys and the remainder |
| |
|
23 |
of the information as data. Two arguments are required: the |
| |
|
24 |
name of the input file (which can be a single hyphen to |
| |
|
25 |
indicate the standard input), and the base name of the |
| |
|
26 |
output database. For example: |
| |
|
27 |
|
| |
|
28 |
|
| |
|
29 |
exim_dbmbuild /etc/aliases /etc/aliases |
| |
|
30 |
|
| |
|
31 |
|
| |
|
32 |
reads the system alias file and creates a DBM database using |
| |
|
33 |
/etc/aliases as the base name. In systems that use the ndbm |
| |
|
34 |
routines, the database consists of two files called (in this |
| |
|
35 |
case) /etc/aliases.dir and /etc/aliases.pag, while in |
| |
|
36 |
systems using the ndbm interface to the db routines a single |
| |
|
37 |
file called /etc/aliases.db is used. If the native db |
| |
|
38 |
interface is in use (USE_DB is set in a compile-time |
| |
|
39 |
configuration file) then a single file with no added prefix |
| |
|
40 |
is used. In this case the two file names on the command line |
| |
|
41 |
must be different. The utility in fact creates the database |
| |
|
42 |
under a temporary name, and then renames the |
| |
|
43 |
file(s). |
