similar to: passwd-file management utility

Is there a tool equivalent to the system "passwd" command (or maybe "adduser" or "useradd") that can support a passwd-file by setting a password, encrypting it with the salted MD5 scheme? The system "passwd" command doesn't have an option to "do it to this alternate file instead of /etc/shadow".

I'm looking for an IMAP testing tool, suitable to use with Dovecot IMAP. It needs to support TLS, STARTTLS, and login/authentication. It needs to be able run from command line, shell scripts, and even do so under cron jobs (e.g. a way to supply the password to use w/o a terminal prompt). Typical interactive mail clients just don't cut it (even the text mode ones). One reason is I need

I'm setting up a Postfix and Dovecot combination. What I want to do is have a user database that (1) is not running from some engine (so not LDAP or SQL or such) ... and (2) is completely disassociated from system users (e.g. most email users are not in /etc/passwd and most /etc/passwd users are not email users). Ideal would be a one-file solution, which can be managed by text editing or

I have recipient_delimiter = + in main.cf (Postfix). But deliveries to dovecot/deliver are still being rejected. It appears that the full email is still in the envelope (e.g. phil+howard at example.com which I want to be delivered to phil at example.com). Is that how it's supposed to work and Dovecot just doesn't support this?

Hi radeonhd, nouveau, mesa3d developers, Firstly, thank you all very much for all the important work you do. I've been working as a part-time developer on the "Spring RTS" project (open-source game engine) which runs on linux (and other os). Some time ago I tried the engine on the open-source ATI radeonhd driver, which I understand to be partly based on mesa 3d, and all textures

I see no documents in the Dovecot documents wiki on how Dovecot features can be used in the fight against spam. One hit came up in a search, and it was about how to fight spam in the MoinMoin Wiki itself (e.g. TextCHAs and such). I already asked in another thread about removing message files at the search from a designated "learn-spam" folder. My next question would be how to

I have this in dovecot-postfix.conf: mail_location = maildir:/home/mail/dnamesum=%12MLd/dname=%Ld/unamesum=%12MLn/uname=%Ln/mail Yes, it is excessive, but that's just for testing. The pattern I really want is less clear for debugging. In postfix/main.cf I have: mailbox_command = /usr/lib/dovecot/deliver -c /etc/dovecot/dovecot-postfix.conf -a "${RECIPIENT}" I verified through

Greetings - This may be a little off-topic here so if someone wants to point me to a more appropriate mailing list I would appreciate it. I administer the network for my small company and am preparing to install a new server in the next month or so. It will be running CentOS 6 and function primarily as a Samba file server to 10 Windows workstations (XP, Vista, 7). It will also host our

A detail I forgot... The need is to have members of the groups wheel and users being dropped to a shell and administer the server while members of only the group users have a script started forcing them to a few command on the server.

I suspect this is a user agent issue, given that Evolution is flaky in so many areas. When I deliver mail to a subfolder/subbox (e.g. the -m option in the deliver command), and Evolution doesn't know of it, yet, creating it fails, and Evolution still can't get to it. Doing things the other way around (create it in Evolution first, then deliver to it) works fine. Seems to be silliness to

I'm working for a higher education institution, and we have Novell Netware for our file sharing services. We are looking at what migration paths are available. I know samba works, we use it on a number of Solaris and Linux boxes and have it authenticate against our Windows ADS. Manually editing samba confiiguration files for up to a hundred users is OK. The challenge is how do you manage a

Hello everybody, I'd like to have LPK (or something like that - getting public keys from LDAP) integrated into mainline OpenSSH. *** First of all, a summary. The project page at http://code.google.com/p/openssh-lpk/ mentions that a few distributions include LPK per default; but reading the various threads at Support for merging LPK and hpn-ssh into mainline openssh?

Hi James, We use Samba 4.2 DCs and have Linux talking to the DC fine. This is using Kerberos via SSSD on CentOS 6 and various Fedoras - Password expiry works, nested Groups work, Sudo rules and Netgroups can be placed inside the AD tree as well. A combination of the samba-tool command and pdbedit can achieve most things, however you will still need the Windows Management tools to interact with

Hmm, thanks to all who replied... you've actually made me think of another question... I gues it's a bit odd on this list to see someone who's looking at using AD that doesn't know anything about it... last time I was tempted down the Windows path it was Win9x. Anyway, you mentioned "netgroup management", which makes me wonder if the other NIS style maps can be

Replying back to the list :-) The Sudoers functionality is achieved by modifing the Samba schema, the sudo package itself distributes the schema change LDIF: $ rpm -ql sudo | grep schema /usr/share/doc/sudo/schema.ActiveDirectory /usr/share/doc/sudo/schema.OpenLDAP /usr/share/doc/sudo/schema.iPlanet Technically if you could find the correct schema to store autofs data in AD then it should work.

A while back, I asked if there had been any consideration in making rsync support direct ssl (as opposed to just ssh). I've been looking around for a secure way (e.g. encrypted, so passwords are never in the clear, and even content is obscured from sniffers) to allow a set of limited-trust users (limited-trust being defined as mostly customers, whom you trust with their own data, but not with

Using Suse ES9 SP2 with OpenLDAP backend with Samba 3.0.21pre I'm getting the following error. "The stub received bad data Would you like to administer another domain?" then User Manager closes when I select no. User Manager seems to work in limited fashion if Low speed connection is selected. This has worked fine until a few days ago and I have not made any changes. Thanks
