Hi! here is the problem , i have local users some have shadow password, some not, so i must create two auth one to login via shadow , and one via passwd so here is my config file (stripped comments): protocols = imap imaps pop3 pop3s imap_listen = 192.168.0.2 pop3_listen = 192.168.0.2 imaps_listen = 192.168.0.2 pop3s_listen = 192.168.0.2 login = imap login = pop3 auth = default auth_mechanisms

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

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

Hi again, I'm on Freebsd 4.x and instead of using the mysql patch, it seems like it would be easier to just use "auth_passdb = pam *" with the pam_mysql drop-in. I'm not really a pam.conf writing expert though. Here's what it currently contains (works for /etc/passwd users) imap auth required pam_unix.so imap account required pam_unix.so

I have tried to configure dovecot to use passwd-file authentication and I havent been able to. I changed the following in the dovecot.conf file (I want to have all the mailboxes in one directory): default_mail_env = maildir:/opt/mail/%u auth_userdb = passwd-file /etc/passwd.imap auth_passdb = passwd-file /etc/passwd.imap auth_verbose = yes It gives me the following error (I hoped it would be

Hi there, I've currently compiled and running dovecot version 0.99.10 on my FreeBSD 4.8 system from the ports and am having problems with authenticating clients with the imap/pop3 service. The error message i get is: Jul 11 19:26:18 dev dovecot: Dovecot starting up Jul 11 19:27:23 dev dovecot-auth: passwd(james): invalid password field '*' Jul 11 19:27:23 dev imap-login:

hey friends, I am running my company's mail server on FC3 which comprises of Postfix + Dovecot + MailScanner + Clamav + Squirrelmail + MailWatch + Spamassassin. I am using Dovecot 0.99.13-3 version on FC3 and I want to implement Quota limits for the users. I am using userdatabase as /etc/passwd file (auth_userdb = passwd ) and password database as pam(auth_passdb = pam) for dovecot. I read

Dear All, I would like to plot text with a box around it. I used strwidth and strheight to compute the size of the box which is plotted with rect: z <- rnorm(10) # horizontal text works plot(rnorm(10)) x1 <- 5 y1 <- 0 label <- "Label" cha <- paste(" ", label, " ", sep = "") xh <- strwidth(cha, cex = par("cex")) yh <-

Hi! I'm trying to use MD5 hashed password in a passwd-file (not the system one). I've set auth_userdb = passwd-file /my/passwd/file auth_passdb = passwd-file /my/passwd/file auth.txt additionally describes a syntax like: auth_userdb = passwd-file[34] /my/passwd/file to denote MD5 passwords in the file, but I've been unable to get any combination of using []'s after

Hello, list members! I'm new to dovecot, and haven't needed to maintain an email server instance for quite some time. I recently got a fairly simple postfix + dovecot installation functional as needed, however I now need to get procmail filtering incoming mail, and after reading various docs and wikis, I find that I'm still having a tough time feeling confident on how best to

Samba Gurus, I've got a Solaris box running samba 2.0.7. A couple of users on Windows XP clients are reporting problems saving files from within MS Word, and Wordpad to the samba share, which of course is a mapped drive. They get an error saying "This is not a valid file name".... These XP boxes do have the reg hacks plainpassword.reg and signorseal.reg installed. The work around

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

I'm new to Dovecot and I'm having trouble getting basic, flat file userdb lookups to work. This must have been asked before, but if so, I can't find it. I'm following the basic setup here: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/SimpleVirtualInstall with a few minor differences. Output of doveconf -n is below, as well as relevant entries from postfix main.cf and master.cf. When I

Hi, I have a vector of strings (class character) with 6 elements (length 6). I call it 'names'. "Graham Chapman" "John Cleese" "Terry Gilliam" "Eric Idle" "Terry Jones" "Michael Palin" And I want to turn it into another vector of strings called 'shortnames' with the same length. The new vector should look like:

Can Samba provide a central service for mapping or syncing username and password across different applications for example AD users accounts and Lotus Notes "ClientID's" ... (something just shy of a metadirectory service) I've used Samba in a past life do something simular and sound like Samba has matured significantly. any thoughts ... or am I hunting down the wrong hole -james
