Hi all,
I am new to dovecot and squirrelmail and I am trying to configure squirrelmail
with dovecot as its imap server. When i disable "Secure Imap (TLS)"
option (2-A-7) from squirrelmail configure menu, it's working fine. But when
i try to enable tls support, squirrelmail is giving the following error:
Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to 192.xx.xx.xx:993 in
/usr/share/squirrelmail/functions/imap_general.php on line 445
ERROR
Error connecting to IMAP server: tls://192.xx.xx.xx.
111 : Connection refused
Go to the login page
The port numbers of the imap server are as follows:
imap_listen 143
pop3_listen 110
imaps_listen 993
pop3s_listen 995
Squirrelmail and the dovecot imap server are running on different machines, so
it is essential to enable tls support. All the machines are running Debian
Sarge.
Can anyone suggest a solution for the above problem ?
Thank you.
Srinivas

Only two things I can think of: 1. Dovecot was not configured for imap with ssl (check that ssl_disable is not set to yes). Also check the protocols statement that it supports imaps. 2. Check that you do not have access lists blocking off 993 to your squirrelmail. This is often encountered if using tcp wrappers and you're running dovecot through (x)inetd.

But i couldn't make out the 2nd point, you suggested.Can you, please, describe it a little more ? Srinivas _______________________________________________ No banners. No pop-ups. No kidding.

dovecot and squirrelmail configuration successfull!!
The problem was:
There were many other options related to ssl,which were
enabled, like ssl_cert_file,ssl_parameters_file and so on.
i disabled them all, and it's working fine now. Now, only,
ssl_disable = no is uncommented.
Thank you all.
