All, Just move our mail servers over to a new mail server running postfix 2.11.1 and dovecot 2.2.13 and getting the subject line errors in my /var/adm/files.

What I'm seeing is that dovecot runs along just fine for about 4 days, and then it will just stop authenticating everyone (IMAP and POP). No errors in the logs other than all authentication attempts comes out as password mismatch.

All, I searched archives and found one related to our problem, with subject "samba 3.0.26a and dropboxes", but there was no solution. So posting this again for hopes of a fix. We have dropboxes where users can drop files in someone else's dropbox folder. You have write permissions but not read for the folder. In UNIX the dropbox permision is set as 2733. This all

We applied latest MS security patches on our Windows 2008 R2 domain controllers. That had unexpected consequence of breaking all our Samba servers. They no longer can authenticate with our domain controllers. Looking into this we think it has to do with the BADLOCK security patch.
