I have several shell scripts to manage user accounts on a server. I've been using a file with the usernames of peoples accounts that any script needs to process. I had a thought that I can and should be setting up groups and adding user accounts to those groups so I don't have to maintain a set of files with the user accounts. So essentially, I am looking for a (simple) shell

Greetings all, I'm a new user of Dovecot and want to say thanks for the great software. I am having a problem at the moment. I run a heterogeneous network with windows and Mac clients logging into a Fedora Linux 2 box running sendmail and previously UW-IMAP, but now Dovecot. I am using strictly pop3, plain authentication with mbox format. Every computer in the network is working fine with

So I setup ssh on a server so I could do some work from home and I think the second I opened it every sorry monkey from around the world has been trying every account name imaginable to get into the system. What's a good way to deal with this?

Greetings, I'm a Fedora user likely going to switch to CentOS in the next few days. I'm wondering if anyone has some heads up advice for me? I am very familiar with FC6 and before so I anticipate few problems I haven't already seen (and know were fixed). The main reason for the move is so I don't have to re-install so frequently and hopefully not have to deal with so many

I'm setting up multiple systems and ideally I want the same package configuration on all of them. So I'm going through yum and rpm queries manually to try and get this done. There must be a better way. Is there a way to use yum or rpm to configure multiple systems with the same packages? If yum or rpm has something native built into it to do this, that would be great. If

As I mentioned on this list before, I'm switching from Fedora 6 to Centos 5. I'm setting up the mail server and on Fedora I used the milter rpms for greylisting, spamassassin, mimedefant etc. However I don't see that those are included with Centos? Is this true, or do my yum repositories need to be changed to look in an 'extras' location? Or is there some other source

I'm finishing converting from POP to IMAP and I'm seeing some potentially powerful uses, but I wonder if my ideas aren't more abuses. I want to create 'multi-user' accounts that allow groups of users to archive and share emails with each other. For example, in the case of a sales department, emails from customers may have requests for new product features. I could create

What would be the effect of changing the password field in "/etc/passwd" from "x" to "*"? I noticed I have an "/etc/passwd.rpmnew" file which changes the password of many service accounts from "x" to "*". I am wondering if I should merge those changes into my "/etc/passwd" file. -- Matt Seitz Manager, File System

For some time now i have been running BackupPC 3.1.0 on CentOS 5.1 x86_64 however after upgrading to CentOS 5.2 BackupPC will not start. "sudo /etc/init.d/backuppc start" return OK but there is no BackupPC processes. This fails also. # sudo -u backuppc /usr/bin/BackupPC -d # echo $? 0 This succeeds, but of course does not fork. # sudo -u backuppc /usr/bin/BackupPC So for some

I am trying to compile the small Samba 3.0.2a source on Solaris 9 to use ldap. The ./configure run reports: "WARNING: libldap is needed for LDAP support". The Solaris installation has it's native libldap installed in /usr/lib, but the configuration does not seem to find it. Would anyone know what I am missing? Thanks...dlb David Bost Dow Jones and Co. 4300 North Route 1 South

Running two Fedora 6 systems with all the latest updates as of a week ago. One system is the mail server (sendmail, dovecot), the other is the master (open)LDAP server with the mail server running a slave LDAP instance. The problem I'm having is the client pop3 users are frequently being told their passwords aren't correct by their email clients (Outlook, Eudora). They try again, a

Dear, I am using the R package SNPRelate but I found an error when I run the following command. Do you know what might be the problem?

This isn''t even close to ready for release, but in case anybody is interested, has feedback, finds it useful as is, or even wants to collaborate...

My ocfs filesystems used to mount automatically at boot, but now I've noticed that I have to do a mount -a after the boot up is completed to mount them. I've checked the init state to see that ocfs is enabled at run levels 3, 4, & 5 # chkconfig --list ocfs ocfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off Nothing shows up in the /var/log/messages file that would

Hi to all, We are a bit of newbes to imap etc, so may be we just not doing it right. Nevertheless, We have compiled dovecot to run under Solaris 8/9 for IPv6 test. We are going crazy. After a successful compilation, the troubles really began. Solaris 9 1. Every?time we reboot- the directory /var/run/dovecot/auth is gone ???? 2. After the dir is created manually, the server starts.
