I am looking for PHP functions that implement passwords that much the dovecotpw implementation. I downloaded one from PEAR, Crypt_HMAC, but the passwords it generates look nothing like the dovecotpw passwords, which could be my fault because I know nothing about the field. Is there a guide or some library that implements them to match dovecotpw?

...stored as "{crypt}zxcv..." in LDAP. I setup SQL, and began getting this: dovecot: Jan 23 16:37:47 Error: child 8718 (auth-worker) killed with signal 11 Passwords are stored as "zxcv..." in SQL. I changed default_pass_scheme from CRYPT to PLAIN, and no troubles. I then tried dovecotpw: dovecotpw -p 123 -s PLAIN-MD5 {PLAIN-MD5}202cb962ac59075b964b07152d234b70 dovecotpw -p 123 -s CRYPT Segmentation Fault (core dumped) So I then tried this: truss dovecotpw -p 123 -s crypt open64("/dev/urandom", O_RDONLY) = 3 read(3, "F80E82 c", 4)...

Hi, please apply the following patch to dovecotpw. Without this, it will be unusable on powerpc and (maybe) other architectures where the char is unsigned by default. --- dovecot-1.0/src/util/dovecotpw.c (revisione 2066) +++ dovecot-1.0.new/src/util/dovecotpw.c (copia locale) @@ -40,7 +40,7 @@ const char *user = NULL; char *scheme =...

The idea of salted hash algorithms is to generate a different hash even if the same text is entered. That can be easily seen with dovecotpw: using NON-salted SHA256, same hash is generated for a given password [root at correio ~]# dovecotpw -s SHA256 -p 123 {SHA256}pmWkWSBCL51Bfkhn79xPuKBKHz//H6B+mY6G9/eieuM= [root at correio ~]# dovecotpw -s SHA256 -p 123 {SHA256}pmWkWSBCL51Bfkhn79xPuKBKHz//H6B+mY6G9/eieuM= [root at correio ~]...

Is there any other mechanism than using passwd files with md5-hashed passwords created by dovecotpw that will support cram-md5 authentication? Has anyone created setups where the passwd databases reside in the individual users home directories? Is it possible to persuade dovecotpw to update the passwd databases automatically. Having to use a text editor to paste in the passwords sets a high u...

Hi I would like to simulate dovecot's dovecotpw with a perl script I tried / used use Crypt::SaltedHash; my $csh = Crypt::SaltedHash->new(algorithm => 'SHA-1'); $csh->add($passwd_string); my $salted = $csh->generate; also use Digest::SHA1; use MIME::Base64; $ctx = Digest::SHA1->new; $ctx->add($passwd_string); $ctx-&...

Where can I find documentation on how to use the "dovecotpw" program that I was referred to? No man page. No wiki. Very little from "dovecotpw -h". What I need to do is generate the "passwd-file" contents with an MD5 scheme (the one equivalent to /etc/shadow is preferred).

Hello, I just installed dovecot version 2.0.8 from the source tarball. After doing ./configure, make, and make install, I don't have the dovecotpw binary anywhere. It is not in /usr/local/bin or /usr/local/sbin where the other binaries are; I also did a find / for it and don't see it. Is there some configuration flag I'm missing? I read the flags in ./configure --help and nothing seems obviously applicable to me. Is there a cryptog...

Hello, Is this the proper place to suggest an enhancement for the stock dovecot package ? The enhancement would be the following: For the time being, the dovecotpw utility offers a standardised way to interactively encode a user password in a certain scheme, say: dovecotpw -s CRYPT Enter new passord: Re-enter new password: etc. Given a *valid* /etc/imap.passwd file (passwd-file authentication), dovecotpw should be able to process it non-interactively and...

Hi again, I`m a bit confused how to store a SSHA256 password in the database and I can`t find any information in the wiki. Do I have to store the SHA256 hash and the salt separately (what would the password_query be like in this way) or just the final SSHA256 hash? Regards Patrick

...m using SQL as a backend for the password storage, and I don't want to store the passwords in plaintext. I've also configured dovecot to be rather restrictive when it comes to authentication methods (only CRAM-MD5 is allowed). To generate the passwords to go into the database I can use the dovecotpw utility, but I'm wanting to stick some sort of minimal admin interface on the server to be able to manage the users etc without having to use the CLI. I've looked at the theoretical explanation of the hashing algorithm, and I've read through the source code that dovecotpw uses to gener...

Where do you think the following binaries should be installed to? The possible locations are: - bin/ - sbin/ - libexec/dovecot/ (or lib/dovecot/ in most Linux distros) So the binaries are: 1) These probably belong to bin/ or sbin/ or both: - authtest - dovecotpw - doveadm 2) Binaries that you might want to call from mail_executable setting: - rawlog - gdbhelper 3) Index file dumping programs, mostly meant for debugging problems: - idxview - listview - logview - mailboxlogview - threadview 4) Some extra tools that might be useful sometimes: - im...
