comment on

my original code (before i changed the layout of the file) looked like this:


my $datafile = '/etc/postfix/virtual';
my $req_addr = "$username\@$domain";
my ( $name, $atdomain ) = $req_addr =~ /^([\w.-]+)(@[\w.-]+)$/ ;
open FH, $datafile or die;
my @virtual = <FH> ;
close FH ;
open FH, ">$datafile" or die;
my $wrote_it = 0 ;
for ( @virtual )
{
  print FH $_ ;
  if ( $_ =~ /$atdomain/ && !$wrote_it )
  {
          print FH "$req_addr\t$username\n" ;
    $wrote_it++ ;
  }
}
close FH ;

Which would edit the /etc/postfix/virtual file if it looked like this:


aaaa.com        VIRTUALDOMAIN
@aaaa.com        postmaster


bbbb.com     VIRTUALDOMAIN
@bbbb.com    postmaster

cccc.com    VIRTUALDOMAIN
@cccc.com   postmaster

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
