Florian Fida's questions

I Have Apache2-Prefork running using mod_php and php 5.2.
And i also have php-fpm with php 5.3 running inside a chrooted environment (listening to an unix socket which would be reachable for apache)

Can someone please guide me how i have to configure a Virtualhost to use Fastcgi. (I've been searching the web for an example, but didnt find anything...)

And there is a point that confuses me...
if php runs across an include or fopen in which context will that be executed? Apaches or the chrooted environment? Can i still pass php directives over httpd.conf and .htaccess?

The whole FastCGI thing is still pretty confusing for me :) thanks in advance for any help!

Update: I'm pretty sure that i have to use mod_fastcgi and the FastCgiExternalServer directive. But i dont know how to tell apache that he sould do that only to .php files

I followed this tutorial:
http://www.bitstormweb.com/linux-administration/multiple-versions-of-php-mysql-and-apache-under-debian-linux.html
When in Step 3 - running debootstrap - my ssh connection got terminated for some reason.
i was able to reconnect but now i have a bootstrap directory in unknown state.

Any idea what i have to do now? Can i just remove it or is it somehow connected to the rest of the system?

Please Help!
Thanks :)

Debian docu says i should do it this way:

CHECK_RCPT_DOMAIN_DNSBLS = zen.spamhaus.org/$sender_address_domain : dnsbl.sorbs.net/$sender_address_domain

but it does not work. my dialup ip is listed on dnsbl.sorbs.net but i can telnet to the mx and leave a message. not even a 'warning' header listed or something...

I'm trying to make exim4 read the relay hosts from a file. i tryed lsearch:

# /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf 
dc_relay_domains='lsearch;/etc/exim4/relay_domains'

but it produces a warning and doesent work...

WARNING: using 'lookup;' constructs in /etc/exim4/update-exim4.conf.conf has never been supported!

I've just configured exim4 using 'dpkg-reconfigure exim4-config', and it works as expected but there are several things i want to add to the standard configuration:

1. exim should allow incoming mail but only process outgoing mail for local requests
   (like sendmail or local connections).
2. i would like to forward some messages but i dont really get it with the router settings.
   if i have a list like this:
   [email protected] : [email protected]
[email protected] : www-data
*@dom2.com : [email protected]
   how can i get exim to process it?
   do dom1.com and dom2.com go to dc_other_hostnames or dc_relayhosts?
3. bevore delevering an email exim should boune it once and deliver it on the second attempt - if thats possible with exim.

Thanks in advance for any tip!
