<html> <h2>The slow.honey file</h2> <p> A pattern for a honeypot file is created when you first install the <b>slowmilt</b> system (usually as /etc/mail/milter/slow/slow.honey.pat). If this is a new installation, just copy that file into its official name as defined by the <a href="../conf/honeyfile.html">HoneyFile</a> configuration item. <code><ul> % cd /etc/mail/milter/slow<br> % cp slow.honey.pat slow.honey<br> % vi slow.honey<br> </ul></code> If this is an upgrade to an existing setup, then you may contiue to the next step. <p> That <b>slow.honey</b> file is composed of one email address per line (without enclosing angle braces). For example: <code><ul> user@your.domain </ul></code> Here, the "user" is any user name you expect to be a target of fishing, such as "a" or "helen". The "your.doman" part is the part of your email address to the right of the '@' symbol that is normal for your site. <p> Lines that begin with a '#' and empty lines are ignored. <p> It is okay for the <b>slow.honey</b> file to be empty. In that instance, no honeypot addresses will be searched, but the file is ready for you to add them later. <p> Note that the <b>slow.honey</b> file is read only once when the <b>slowmilt</b> milter begins to run. If you change the contents of HoneyFile, you will need to restart <b>slowmilt</b> for those new contents to be recognized. <p> </body> </html>
