-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi, i got a problem with dovecot 0.99.14 - after a while of checking pop3 periodically, the dovecot-auth process gets killed.

Hi, I just got a comment from one of my IBM support engineeres that there is a problem with auth-passwd.c only calling authenticate() once. He claims it should potentially be called several times, in case several authetication methods are defined in /etc/security/user. F.ex.: SYSTEM = "NIS and DCE" Suggested (untested) patch should look like: ----------------- cut

We have come across a problem with OpenSSH 2.3.0p1 (and still in 2.5.1p1) which affect authentication on an AIX 4.3 system. The code in auth-passwd.c at line 168 reads: #ifdef WITH_AIXAUTHENTICATE return (authenticate(pw->pw_name,password,&reenter,&authmsg) == 0); #endif however, the AIX manual page for "authenticate" states: "The authenticate subroutine maintains

Hi all, on my system ("AIX 6.1" with "xlc -q64") the "configure" script for "dovecot-2.0.2" breaks with: checking whether fd passing works... no configure: error: fd passing is required for Dovecot to work in config.log: configure:19524: ./conftest configure:19524: $? = 1 configure: program exited with status 1 It seems, that the last

Hello everyone, I wanted to run Dovecot inside Gramine [1]. Gramine is a tool to let normal Linux binaries run with the help of the Intel Software Guard Extensions (SGX) technology [2] in a secure enclave to which the operating system doesn't have an access to. Most parts of Dovecot now run fine, however, Dovecot uses the SCM_RIGHTS flag for the sendmsg system call to exchange file

Hi there, I got dovecot compiled and running on HP-UX 11.23. It's using LDAPUX and PAM for authentication. So far, it works. But after logging in the connection is closed immediately. It looks like this: telnet <ip> 143 Connected to ... Escape character is '^]'. * OK Dovecot ready. a01 login <user> <pass> Connection closed by foreign host. The dovecot log says:

Hi All-- First, thanks to Timo for solving my last issue. I got dovecot up and running on one of my machines, and it does exactly what I want. Now I'm trying to install dovecot on an older box (glibc 2.0.7 Linux kernel 2.0.36), and encountering some problems: -- firstly autoconf/automake does not seem to correctly deal with the madvise function on this system. It detects that we don't

Hi, I'm trying to install dovecot-0.99.9-test6 with gcc-3.2.2 under AIX (4.3.3) and found some problems. First, I need to define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED to 1 in src/lib/fdpass.c and src/auth/mycrypt.c or undefine it to compile successfully. When I define _XOPEN_SOURCE_EXTENDED to 1, I get the following error while connecting: dovecot: Apr 21 17:56:44 Info: Dovecot starting up imap-login:

Hi David, I'm sure loginfailed(..) should be called immediately after authenticate(..) returned an error. It is directly related to an invalid password try. (Please see my attached mail from May 2001 to the list). I'm not so sure when loginsuccess(..) should be called (setting the loginfailed counter to zero): Either 1) when somebody logs in successfully using all kinds of valid

The patch below follows changes in AIX utmp handling made between AIX 4.3.3 and 5.1. With it, utmp entries are properly recorded again. The patch applies to OpenSSH 3.1p1, and seems to work fine. The co-worker who sent me the patch hasn't tested backwards compatibility on AIX 4.3.3 systems. Richard ------- *** openssh-2.9.9p2/auth-passwd.c.org Tue Jul 3 23:21:15 2001 ---

Hello, We run dovecot 1.0.rc6-1 on a debian system. The user auth db is postgresql and the storage folders are on a NFS partition. Latelly every 2 days the authentification hangs and i see in the logs: Sep 21 10:04:22 c005 dovecot: login: tried to change state 0 -> 17808 (if you can't login at all, see src/lib/fdpass.c) What is the problem ? What can i do ? Thank you ! -- Catalin

Dear list, since the order of authentication and AFS token/KRB TGT forwarding changed (around 3.0), we have had problems with users accidentally overwriting their credentials from a "password" login with forwarded credentials. E.g. user A logs in as user B, but stays with the AFS permissions of user A. A workaround is to use "-k" on these sessions, but "it worked without
