hello, this may be a very stupid question but how do i load a config file? i didn't find the docs part which explains how to start the imapserver at all. i have put this in my xinetd.conf: service imap { disable = no socket_type = stream protocol = tcp wait = no user = root server = /usr/local/dovecot/imap flags = IPv4 } and the server is running, but thats all. as u can see i have installed the server in /usr/local/dovecot and i have put the config file in /etc, /usr/local/etc and the programmdir itself - nothing worked. what commands must i write in the xinetd.conf to get the server running ? thanks -- E-Mail by jesus.ch and livenet.ch News, Magazin, Events, Forum, Chat, Free E-Mail, Dialin, Jobs, Top-Newsletter

>which does everything itselfwithout loading the config file it dosen't do anything - i can connect to the server but thats all. how should the server know where i store my mboxes etc. i must load the config file - but how ? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Timo Sirainen" <tss at iki.fi> To: <dovecot at procontrol.fi> Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 8:07 PM Subject: Re: [Dovecot] How do i load a configfile ?> On Mon, 2003-09-01 at 20:57, Tweek wrote: > > hello, > > > > this may be a very stupid question but how do i load a config file? > > i didn't find the docs part which explains how to start the imapserverat> > all. > > There's two possibilities: Run the "dovecot" binary which does > everything itself, or start imap-login from inetd. > > > server = /usr/local/dovecot/imap > > So imap-login here :) > >-- E-Mail by jesus.ch and livenet.ch News, Magazin, Events, Forum, Chat, Free E-Mail, Dialin, Jobs, Top-Newsletter
