similar to: Dovecot doesn't use vchkpw properly :(

I am currently using Dovecot 0.99.14-r1 as provided by Gentoo, in a Qmail + VPopmail configuration. I am curious as to how to configure it to ensure the most stability, as it serves >1000 clients. I would rather disable any indexing that give small speed improvements if they are not known to be stable. Advice? Cheers, -- Casey Allen Shobe | http://casey.shobe.info cshobe at

Hey all, So I've got a shared namespace in dovecot where users can, via a custom control panel, share their folders into (which creates a symlink) in order to allow anyone on their domain to access it. I store mail in maildir. The issue is that when people share folders, they expect that when they make subfolders, those are automatically shared as they are contained within it.

I have built dovecot with kerberos support, however am not able to log in using GSSAPI support in my mail client. I receive the following error: SASL(-4): no mechanism available: No worthy mechs found Additionally, Digest-MD5 does not work - I receive an authentication failed (as though I have an incorrect password) if I try to use it. I am using PostgreSQL for authentication, and returning

Hey all, Well, I typed up all the below, then managed to fix the problem before sending this to the list. I'll send it anyways, in case anybody else is affected by it (and because it does indicate a definite bug in Dovecot's experimental Kerberos support). The fix is to recompile without kerberos enabled, and to take gssapi out of the auth methods in the config (the latter alone

Hi, I a currently running a server which is using uw-imap server which currently has 190 users. I am looking to move the server OS and the imap server to Dovecot Imap Server. We are currently using mbox as the default mail file. I have a couple of questions to ask. 1) Would it be better if we moved to maildirs during the server move? 2) All current mail files are in a directly called

Hi all, I'm new in using dovecot and I'm running in a problem, which I cannot solve without hours and hours of work. Maybe there is a solution, which I didn't find with old friend google :_) Here is the problem: We are using an old mailserver (it's running fine for 5 years) with qmail and the old uw-imap server. All users have their grown directories under a home/Maildir folder.

make[4]: Entering directory `/home/root/dovecot-1.0.beta3/src/plugins/convert' mkdir -p -- /usr/lib/dovecot/imap /usr/lib/dovecot/pop3 /usr/lib/dovecot/lda for d in imap pop3 lda; do \ rm -f /usr/lib/dovecot/$d/lib02_trash_plugin.so; \ ln -s ../lib01_convert_plugin.so /usr/lib/dovecot/$d; \ done ln: `/usr/lib/dovecot/imap/lib01_convert_plugin.so': File exists ln:

We have 3 folders in every user's account which need to be there. Sometimes the users are stupid and delete or rename them. Is there any way to make them unmodifiable, but still allow them to see them, and move mail into/out of them?

Hello, I'm curious if anybody knows how to configure the order in which domain controllers are contacted by clients for authentication purposes and other such stuff. I've a situation where it seems that all our Windows computers are attempting to authenticate off of a remote server before the local one, which is backwards. I'm not even certain where to check what they are actually

Hi, I'm using a domain where the DNS is hosted by a couple of domain controllers on the network, outside of my control. I do have ability to work with group policy and active directory users and computers. I was able to join a samba/linux computer to the domain using 'net rpc join -S <IP of local DC/DNS server>'. This caused an entry for the computer to show up in Active

I just installed OpenSSH-3.0.2pl1 on a new machine, but am unable to use it. SCP works, ssh outbound works, and ssh inbound appears to work but I never get a prompt. The password authentication works... The output of ssh -vv from a client machine is exactly the same as the output when connecting to a machine where I do get a prompt, so it must be something outside of the ssh connection

What's the easiest single step command to use cdparanoia & oggenc to convert a CD straight into oggs without sucking a ton of disk space for WAVs in the meantime? Is it possible to do it so that the WAV rip resides in memory and only the ogg gets written to disk?

This is a linux from scratch based on the 2.4.13 kernel. I'm using a GCC 2.95.3, autoconf 2.52, and automake 1.5. Libvorbis compilation fails with a Signal 11 error as shown below.

Problem: Using MySQL storage for the user and password db with MD5-CRYPT hashes, Dovecot fails to successfully authenticate when the MD5-CRYPT or MD5 settings are specified as default_pass_scheme in dovecot-mysql.conf. Dovecot /does/ successfully authenticate against MD5-CRYPT hashes when default_pass_scheme is set to CRYPT, which according to the docs should be DES encryption. (I do not

Hey Guys, I'm using vpopmail, and was told here that I need to use the vchkpw passwd module to authenticate AND get my lastauth data updated. It works like a charm, but I've come across another minor issue. vchkpw sets the 'connection-type' based on the variable TCPLOCALPORT If that's not set, it defaults to pop. What this does in my environment is cause someone who is
