If something refuses to run, try:

chattr -R -suSiadAc /usr/sbin

Example: if dovecot doesn't run or install/upgrade, try doing...

whoami
lsattr /usr/sbin/dovecot


We use dovecot on our servers to process email. However, with IMAP it keep freezings so here are possible solutions.

# vi /etc/dovecot.conf

change and/or uncomment :

Here's how we do it on RHEL:

Logged in as root:

* Create file at /etc/cron.hourly/clockset
* with these two lines only:

rdate -s time-a.nist.gov > /dev/null
hwclock --systohc > /dev/null

search: ([A-Za-z0-9\s-=";/0]*)

replace: $1whateveryouwant

The () mark takes place of $1

e.g.

this is wrong: <td><img src="img/D0204</td>

location of whm/cpanel (/scripts/upcp) conf file: /etc/cpupdate.conf
