similar to: auth_passdb using MySQL fails at starup

Hi all, I'm new here and would very much appreciate any help you can give me. We are running a rather outdated mail server that until recently has been running beautifully. Under the pretense of "it is ain't broke, don't fix it" it hasn't been updated so is running Fedora Core 4 and dovecot v0.99.14. What is happening is that as users log in (via thunderbird), they

I'm trying to get dovecot working on Solaris x86. I've got it working just fine on RH Desktop 4; and while I have a built, limping version on solx86, it's not actually usable except from other solx86 systems. Basic details: Version 1.0rc23 OS Solaris x86 (64 bit) CPU Opteron Filesystem NFS (but it's

Hello, I'm testing Dovecot that is part of Debian/sarge (v0.99.14-1). So far so good. I have migrated some mailboxes for testing with success and seems that everything works fine. One thing I do not figure out is, what to do about shared mailboxes, which are the very reason of searching for an alternative IMAP server, The Wiki states that there is some sort of shared mailboxes, based upon

A summary of my problem, I had wrong UIDs for a user (eg pmal) between the /etc/passwd file and the smbpasswd file. When I was trying to loggin from a couple of machines running either win nt or win 98 I was reading in the log files that the loggin could not be completed because the UID were wrong but there were instances were I could loggin from another computer with the same username. I really

I've included the non-defaulted bits of my dovecot.conf file at the bottom of this email. As I understand my set-up it's using unix authentication methods (/etc/passwd via pam?). Considering disable_plaintext_auth and auth_mechanisms, what exactly is being passed? I was hoping to get auth_mechanism = digest-md5 but that's not working out very well right now. It seems I can only

Hi, im using 0.99 stable in RPM form, Im using this for postfix+dovecot+real unix users, now i tried to enable virtual support with this: protocols = imap pop3 ssl_disable = yes log_path = /var/log/dovecot.log info_log_path = /var/log/dovecot.info login_user = dovecot mail_extra_groups = mail auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_passdb = pam auth_userdb = passwd auth_userdb =

Hello, I have some questions about removing the instrumented instructions at runtime. Assume I instrument some instructions by using some transformation passes. At runtime, I just need those instrumented instructions at the beginning, and I would like to remove instrumented instructions at runtime to reduce overhead. Does anyone know how to do this by using LLVM? Thanks, Bo -- View

Im a dovecot newbie and need a little help with the passwd-like file auth mechanism in dovecot I got dovecot to work fine with regular /etc/passwd file auth .. so I wanted to start using another authentication store for virtual users. So .. I created a /etc/dovecot-passdb file and plopped in an encrypted password using md5crypt. Here are the appropriate lines from the dovecot.conf file

Hi all I just compiled Dovecot v1.0-test70 and i tried using the dovecot-example.conf for a quick test to see if the daemon would work.

Dear Dovecote devotees, I have been going through dovecot configuration for the first time. I am not an experienced systems administrator so I had to do a left turn to read up about PAM while doing all the configuration for my new webmail service. I found that the writing in the dovecot documentation about PAM to be rather misleading in at least one aspect. The documentation I am specifically

Hello. I am trying to setup Dovecot on an Alpha running FreeBSD 4.10. I am simply trying the imap/pop3 protocols at this time. But with both protocols the log message I get is: pop3-login: fd_send(5) failed: Bad file descriptor dovecot: child 275 (login) returned error 89 or imap-login: fd_send(5) failed: Bad file descriptor dovecot: child 275 (login) returned error 89 I have tried

Dear all We are using a definition of rules which has perfectly worked with SuSE8.2 and vmware and a local samba on some clients. The systems got an update to 9.2. Now we got a very strange problem which probably could belong to an firewall definition problem. After booting of the system the samba connection to vmware works perfect but a few hours later it isn''t possible to copy a

I'm trying to set up a temporary mailserver using Debian Sarge and Dovecot 1.0 with maildir format. My only previous experience has been on a simple imap server. I have read the wiki documentation and searched the archives, but can't tie down my problem. The log tells me Info: passwd-file(anne) : unknown user. I have set auth_userdb = passwd-file /etc/imap.passwd auth_passdb =

I've recently converted over to dovecot to uw-imap, and am having a heck of a time trying to find actual docs that describe how to set up virtual users properly without using ldap or posgres.. Basically I need to know what goes in auth_userdb and auth_passdb for a system with *NO* local user accounts in /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow. I will only create mbox files for these users in /var/mail/%u

my mailsystem is using postfix and virtual mailbox which stored in mysql db. SMTP AUTH is using PAM, pam-mysql to authenticate against a mysql db. I installed dovecot 0.99-14. In the dovecot example config file it mentioned that auth_passdb can check against thru PAM but auth_userdb didn't Does it mean that auth_userdb should use other means e.g. /etc/passwd, shadow, vpopmail, etc and in my
