Dear all, I am trying to setup Dovecot with GSSAPI support. For testing purposes gssapi is the only method allowed for login. As I cannot login to my mailbox, I'vo got two questions about the following log entries: dovecot: Info: auth-worker(default): passwd-file /dovecot/store/db/test-userdb: Read 3 users dovecot: Info: auth(default): new auth connection: pid=3915 dovecot: Info:

Hi all, I have a setup of some nodes running Dovecot 2.0.13 and Postfix 2.5.6 with storage in NFS and authentication happening with PAM. Poking around in the wiki, I tried out different possibilities but now I am stuck -- and are hoping for your (enlightening) comments and tips. My planned setup for IMAP and LMTP is like this: IMAP ==== 1. A loadbalancer directs new sessions to a

Hi, I didn't know where to post this one so I'll start off with you guys and then try Postfix if I'm barking up the wrong tree! Having set up my mail server (Dovecot/Postfix), users are experiencing long delays (a couple of minutes) when sending mail from mail client such as Thunderbird - this increases with attachments. Having had a brief discussion with someone, they mentioned

Hi, I have a Linux machine as Samba Fileserver, authentication through NT PDC, lots of W2K, NT and XP clients and some MAC clients running under OS X 10.2. People share documents on that server and for the M$ clients, it works. The OS X clients can read but not write. The error messages are directory related (permission), and sometimes we get the statement 'disk full'. But there are

Hi, I have > 11 TB hard used Mailstorage, saved als maildir in ext3 on HP EVA. I always wanted to make some mesurements about several influences to the performance (switch to ext4, switch to mdbox), but I never had enough time to do that. At the moment I *need* more speed, we have too much waitI/O on the system and I already used all other performance and tuning-tricks (separated cache,

Hi there.... Again with the same question, but with a little more information technically. Config: 1 Samba File Server (Suse Linux) 40+ M$ Clients (NT, W2K, XP) 4 Mac OS X clients (10.2,10.3) Authentication throug NT PDC Everything works fine for the M$ part of it. Problem: when someone from the OS X side log onto the share it looks nice by first sight, but the file permissions, owner and

First off, a disclaimer: this is not a problem with openssh per se as it is also occurring with other software on my server, but I was hoping someone reading this might know more about the problem than I do. Thank you very much in advance for your help. Problem: connecting to the server via sftp results in a hang here: if (select(max+1, rset, wset, NULL, NULL) < 0) { which is line 1428 from

Hello, I'm using dovecot 1.0 under debian etch. The lda socket path is set to: auth_socket_path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth But this gives me the error: net_connect(/var/spool/postfix/private/auth) failed: Permission denied I suppose deliver is run as dovecot user. I read about running deliver as root with the suid bit set. I'm not quite sure if this is a good solution. Is there

Hallo. In our dovecot 1.2.6 server running under Solaris 9 I would like to set up a second quota root because the mail folders are in the users home directories and the inboxes of all users are in /var/mail. As soon as I add quota2 = fs:INBOX:noenforcing:mount=/var/mail the imap client crashes repeatedly as soon as the user tries to open a mail folder. Thanks for any help. Dovecot Logfile:

We are just trying to bring up a new server and chose to use Dovecot rather than the uw-imap from our previous servers. At this point I am just testing with some throw away accounts using squirrelmail. I can load my inbox, but then the imap connection is lost. I presume you need some real information to get your teeth into, so this is going to get a little long. I'll give you three things

I'm bringing up a system with dovecot that has been running for years with uw-imap. In making the switch, I put a tail on the log file, made the switch, and sent a test mail and received it. I was able to receive mail with no apparent difficulties, but the log file was disconcerting. A number of users connected during the few minutes I had it running, and for each of them there was an
