Summary: Glitches about documentation ch. 3 and ch. 9
Product: Exim
Version: N/A
Platform: Other
OS/Version: Windows
Status: NEW
Severity: bug
Priority: low
Component: Documentation
AssignedTo: nigel@???
ReportedBy: giovanni@???
CC: exim-dev@???
In section 9.3, there is the following table:
1.2.3.4: data for 1.2.3.4
192.168.0.0/16 data for 192.168.0.0/16
"abcd::cdab": data for abcd::cdab
"abcd:abcd::/32" data for abcd:abcd::/32
The explanation is really unclear, because on a first read I was sure there was
a bug, i.e. missing colon after line 2 and line 4, but after reading further, I
noticed that the double quotes delimit the key, so you don't even need the
white space. Correct? I think it should be reorganized.
About section 3.12, the "check_local_user" description is unclear about the
side effects. It states that it sets $local_user_uid, $local_user_gid, and
$home but it doesn't explain how it's related to "user" and "group" settings.
In chapter 15, the "check_local_user" description it states the the only side
effect is setting $home.
In the same chapter, the description for the option "group" states that it's
default is given by "check_local_user", so basically it means that it overrides
one of the side effects of the latter one. Is it correct to state that "group"
always sets $local_user_gid variable?
