Uhm..does that mean dcc/razor/pyzor are working on your system? As far
as I know the instructions (howtosa.html) just point out how to get SA
running under win32 at all but that was not the initial question. It's
also possible to compile SA to a standalone .exe (as I pointed out on
the SAProxy mailinglist) with the latest Net::Dns module but that
doesn't solve the dcc/razor/pyzor problem.

Completely agree!

Yeah, I guess I should have said "If anyone comes up with a way to do
so AND CARES TO SHARE IT WITH THE PEOPLE WHO HELPED DEVELOP THEIR

be glad to hear about it."

Wait, I'll dig out my former posting:
----------------snip----------------
The developers of SAproxy (StataLabs) seem to have managed it to get
everything running under win32 (dcc,razor,pyzor etc) with perl 5.8 in
the latest 2.5 version of their commercial product SAProxy pro.
Unfortunately they either haven't checked the changed pop3proxy code
into the CVS yet (and I doubt they will) or the code hasn't found it's
way into the CVS which was the case with the last SAProxy version as
they say..
Perhaps some if not all Win32 problems can be solved using the latest
Perl 5.8 version along with some updated modules like net-dns/tie-dns
and tie-registry etc. but I don't know as I'm no perl programmer aswell.

The post that was cited below was mine, so I guess I'll answer the
question. :) No, it does not mean that dcc/razor/pyzor are working
under win32. My suggestion was originally in response to someone who
was having trouble getting the RBL tests to work when invoking SA from
pop3proxy, though they were working fine if he invoked SA from the
command line.
AFAIK, nobody has yet gotten dcc/razor/pyzor working under win32. If
you come up with a way to do so, I'm sure I and a bunch of other folks
would be glad to hear about it.
