This would work, right? : imap stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login imaps stream tcp nowait root /usr/sbin/tcpd /usr/local/libexec/dovecot/imap-login --ssl imap-login would try to connect to master process using some named socket. If it couldn't, it would create the master process itself. Master

Hello everybody, I hope this question is appropriate for this list. Apologies if not. I am running a set of virtual machines under debian 6, to build a mail/collaboration server. I am mainly using dovecot, postfix, openldap and heimdal. Mails are stored using maildir, on a NFSv4 share. My users are system users, but using LDAP and libpam-ldap and libnss-ldap for caching credentials

Hi, I have been using qmail-ldap for quite some time and now moved to postfix/dovecot. One feature that I miss is that provided by qmail-secretary. qmail-secretary basically is a mail list manager with following features: 1 no limit, just explode to all members 2 members only, as the name says; only members are allowed (based on envelope sender, so not very secure, everybody can fake

Hi, For the past day, I have been researching about making dovecot to support mailfront (http://untroubled.org/mailfront/) imapfront-auth natively and able to use mailfront imapfront-auth with dovecot imap v1.2.16 without starting any dovecot related services and no /etc/dovecot.conf file is required.

I''m trying to have puppet manage daemontools service. Following the documentation <http://docs.puppetlabs.com/guides/types/service.html>, I added this in my puppet configuration: class

Hi, I just started running RC2 on Thursday. I migrated an old Courier IMAP server, and the only issue I had was that I didn't understand how to enable quotas :) It's impressively fast, and I'm quite happy with it so far. This morning I found that dovecot had crashed, I had exceeded FreeBSD's kern.maxpipekva Has anyone successfully run dovecot under daemontools? I got it to

Hello, Using Puppet 2.7(.20), I''m trying to override the "restart" command of a service controlled by daemontools provider using: service { ''bamboo-agent'': hasrestart => false, provider => ''daemontools'', restart => ''/bin/touch /var/run/needs-restart'', ... } And ... notify =>

Does this version implement the ability to be run under Dan Bernstein's supervise/multilog utilities? I.e. can sshd be told not to daemonize and log all messages to stdout/stderr instead of syslog? Thanks, -- Jos Backus _/ _/_/_/ "Modularity is not a hack." _/ _/ _/ -- D. J. Bernstein _/

Hello, I'm trying to run smbd with djb daemontools' supervise. Here's the way I followed: # 2/6/2002 # problem running samba-2.2.4 and supervise problem: run smbd with supervise subproblem 1: smbd & nnmbd with -D option deteach from tty, so supervise cannot control them; solution 1: we can patch smb/server.c (foreground patch) to prevent deteach, but a second

Hi all, I am trying to use samba with daemontools. (and it's brother runit: http://smarden.org/runit/). I do not want to talk much about runit itself. The main point is that samba *must* run in foreground mode (no fork, no detach from terminal). It is fine up to this point. I found an option '-F' and if I start with smbd -F It will run in foreground so it's OK. But I want to

I was wondering if anyone was aware of a method for mounting virtual CD devices with CD image files. I keep images (.CUE/.BIN pairs) of my CD collection on a NAS appliance tucked away in my closet. I'd like to write a script to mount each one, create ID tags, rip the tracks, then move along to the next one. I figure with a quad core opteron, it should be able to crank through them in a

Hi there I'm having difficulties in getting dovecot to run under daemontools. Also, from a sysadmin perspective, so far, I find dovecot's config rather complex - I suppose that's what happens when one attempts to appease all authentication methods... anyway, I digress. System details, to set the scene: OS: Slackware Linux Linux Kernel: 2.4.29 GCC: 3.2.2 Dovecot version: 1.0.rc6

Hello all, I have dovecot running under daemontools and I can't see dovecot-lda in action when I read the logs. I've set the logs to /dev/stderr because daemontools redirects /dev/stderr to /var/log/dovecot/current. The dovecot server works fine and I know that dovecot-lda is actually doing the delivery, because the sieve facility is working as well. I can get lda log working -but

Hi all, I'm trying to use daemontools to manage the icecast server. I've got it installed and working (with qmail) However it wont work with icecast.
