[cpx] WARNING: Do NOT run vinstall mysql4.1

A vuninstall mysql4.1 followed by a vinstall mysql4.1 will  wipe out 
rc.conf and removes the vsapd startup line.

I got burned, and Verio support has confirmed there is a problem. Of 
course you won't see it until you reboot.

Another side effect is that spamd doesn't start, so you will 
obviously have no spam filtering either.

Check your rc.conf files... It should look (at least) like this:

mysql_enable="YES"
mysql_args="--old-passwords"
enable_quotas="YES"
spamd_enable="YES"
vsapd_enable="YES"
spamd_pidfile="/var/run/spamd.pid"
spamd_flags="-c -d -r ${spamd_pidfile} --socketpath=/var/run/spamd.sock"

DOUBLE check your /etc/rc.conf or you will be in for a rude surprise 
next time you reboot
