similar to: Dsync test on 2.1.3

Hi, I am using dovecot 2.1.3 on centos 5.7. It was working fine but last few days I need to restart or reload dovecot service because at that time users are not able to login. Each time I am getting information from doveco.log is as : Jun 04 11:52:54 auth: Error: BUG: Authentication client gave a PID 17564 of existing connection Jun 04 11:52:54 auth: Error: BUG: Authentication client gave a PID

I had a recent disaster scenario with rsync. I was wondering if there were any suggestions to guard against in the future: I used to maintain "mirror" backups of the /home dir on our production_server using rsync to a backup_server. The primary server had a rsyncd daemon running and the backup_server had this line in the crontab: 10 01 * * * rsync -av --delete root at

Hi, I am using dovecot-2.1.3 on centos 5.7. Its running fine. I have two systems for mail server one is for backup. Currently I am running rsync daily. But I want to use dsync.

Can anybody give me any idea

Hello, excuse me but there is some documentation about replication now? I dont' understand where i must put the lines below (dovecot.conf? , 20-imap?) Excuse but it's not so clear for me cause i'm a new dovecot user. Another question, i use virtual users on mysql backend , so for replication i need to give ssh at every virtual users? Or i can use a only use a system ssh user?

Hello, I am totally confused configuring replication in dovecot. In my case I have 2 servers instead of running rsync as a daemon which takes a lot of time I would like SERVER-A will be the master and SERVER-B will be the slave My users directly interact with server A, Server B stands as a mails backup only I've setup SERVER-B ( backup ) like that, NO SPECIAL CONF on master SERVER-A

Hi, I'm trying to use the Dsync cluster feature in a simple setup, without director, but I'm having some troubles. First of all, I want to know if this functionality syncs the mailbox when the user receive a mail or only when the dovecot starts? Reading the Dovecot mailing list and the design description for a dsync-replicated Dovecot cluster, I understood that it should sync every time

Is it possible to get replication working in a virtual user setup that uses a static userdb ? My environment is fairly simple and typical - there's a single system user (vmail) that owns all the home dirs (/var/mail/domain.com/user). The virtual users (userid at domain.com:secretpassword) are kept in a single file (/var/mail/domain.com/PASSWD) that's unique per domain, and referenced as a

Hi, i tried to setup replication since some days but I'am stuck now. My conf: # 2.2.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.32-431.3.1.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.5 (Final) dsync_remote_cmd = ssh -l%{login} %{host} /usr/bin/doveadm dsync-server -u%u -l%{lock_timeout} -n%{namespace} log_path = /var/log/dovecot mail_gid = 5000 mail_home = /var/vmail/%d/%n mail_location =

In dovecot-2.1 hg you can now test dsync-based replication. Everything isn't finished yet, but it appears to work and I've enabled it for my @dovecot.fi mails. Some issues: - public namespace isn't replicated at all - shared namespace is replicated, but not private mail flags - I've only tested SSH replication setup now, not director replication setup (and director setup

Hi, My backup server (B) has a /backup/home and I'd like to restore /backup/home/userX to /home/userX in my server A I am trying to do with in the server where I want to restore. rsync -e ssh -avzp -R --exclude "*.journal" backup_server:/backup/home/userX/ /home/userX But it is creating a /home/userX/backup/home/userX What am I doing wrong? -------------- next part

Hi, By the Documentation the directive "dsync_remote_cmd" seems to me required only to dsync via ssh. Is this right? I have set dsync via tcp. Should I have set "dsync_remote_cmd" ? Thanks! Thiago Henrique

We using Dovecot with LDAP. From the beginning, we using GC LDAP query with port 3268 for email accounts. For example, user1 at our-organization.org (in the USA) with "base = dc=our-organization, dc=org" works fine. But refer to this document: https://wiki2.dovecot.org/AuthDatabase/LDAP When we change the LDAP from 3268 to 389 and with TLS, the base should be changed like this:

I figured out a previous issue to allow you to connect veritas BE to a samba system. You basically just defind a c$ share, and it was happy (Veritas BE version 8.5 Rev 3572) Now, I cannot get the user defined share to connect for the life of me anymore. The backup user can connect using windows shares, but within the application, I'm out of luck. It keeps asking for a username/password

The folders suddenly appeared unregistered, and once manually registered they were empty. Has anyone observed something like this?
