dovecot - Sep 2011 - How to port this dovecot-1.x configuration file to dovecot-2.x

Hi,

I am trying to move from dovecot-1.x to dovecot 2.1 but I have this 
error :

Sep 23 16:04:13 lda: Error: userdb lookup: 
connect(/var/run/dovecot/auth-master) failed:
Permission denied (euid=5000(vmail) egid=5000(vmail) missing +r perm: 
/var/run/dovecot/auth-master, dir owned by 0:0 mode=0755)

and I dont' manage to find information about how to translate this old 
configuration part:

socket listen {
     master {
       # Master socket provides access to userdb information. It's 
typically
       # used to give Dovecot's local delivery agent access to userdb so 
it
       # can find mailbox locations.
       path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master
       mode = 0600
       # Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root)
       user = vmail
       #group      }
     client {
       # The client socket is generally safe to export to everyone. 
Typical use
       # is to export it to your SMTP server so it can do SMTP AUTH 
lookups
       # using it.
       path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
       mode = 0660
     }




Thanks

Preferably you'd use auth-userdb now instead of auth-master.

doveconf converts that just fine:

service auth {
  unix_listener /var/run/dovecot/auth-client {
    mode = 0660
  }
  unix_listener /var/run/dovecot/auth-master {
    mode = 0600
    user = vmail
  }
}

But again, auth-userdb instead of auth-master is safer.
