similar to: Director and forwarding LDAP user as Master user

Hello, Please somebody suggest me how to remove the "*masteruser" appendix from the dovecot director database while using masteruser authentication. My situation is: - all users get authenticated in LDAP on the dovecot-director frontend - then they are forwarded to dovecot backend as username*masteruser ( this is a way how to proxy users with encrypted passwords). To enable it a added

Hi All, I have compared Dovecot performance to Courier and it appears that as a POP3 server Dovecot is slower in 2 times but as an IMAP server it is faster in 1.5 times. The same node (16CPUs), testing time is 30 min, please see results and dovecot configs attached. Benchmark software is MStone used by Sendmail Inc so is is quite reliable. I do not see anything else to tweak in Dovecot to

Greetings to all I need a masteruser/proxy account for some applications to be implemented and i am having some problems. Normal users are proxyied through ldap queries to the remote machine and this is working like it sopose to, but i can't make the master user to work. Below are both the dovecot.conf and dovecot-ldap.conf and verbose logs on the proxy machine. If i log directly on the

Started implementing the MasterUser changes to my config files so I can finally offer SPA for pop3/imap. Things are working fine with the MasterUser (horray!), however one of my guys started using SPA with Outlook Express and started getting another users mailbox. Turns out to be related to NTLM. His Outlook express is configured for the username of 'johnsmith'. However, you'll see

Hello, I have Director setup to proxy requests to backend servers. This works fine when using "standard" username/passwords. I am not try to enable the use of the Dovecot Master user through Director into the backend servers. a.) username is being sent as masteruser*username b.) request hits the proxy and authenticates, and then is passed to the backend servers and fails auth. - logs

Hi all, i have some troubles in the implementation of my proxyconfiguration. i have two kind of users, the first will be proxied to a dovecot backend with masteruser-login, the other one will be proxied to another non-dovecot imapserver with nopassword. Everything looks to work if i use passwd-file like this: user1:{PLAIN}pass1:::::::proxy=y host=192.168.1.1 destuser=user1*masteruser

Awesome, thanks for the advice. Using the following now works... passdb { driver = static args = proxy=y password=doesnotmatter } Cheers.

Dear All, I have noticed that dovecot.index is not generated straight away if you have just a few emails in the mailbox. Instead of that dovecot.index.log is modified and accessed by clients. Only if the number of email reaches some level then it creates dovecot.index in user mailboxes. Can somebody please tell me when (in my understanding of the process) the index log file drops all data into

Hello All, Have anyone met the problem I am struggling with at the moment ? The problem is when I run two instances of dovecot 2.1.8 which are one for proxy-director and another one is a regular one on the same server then I have big amount of strange entries in the /var/log/mail.err: Jul 26 11:51:20 dovecot-test-1 dovecot: director: Error: Empty server list Jul 26 11:51:20 dovecot-test-1

I need to migrate an old mail server running Dovecot (0.99.14) to a new server running Dovecot (1.0.7; as shipped with CentOS 5.2). My plan was to use the imapsync utility as this will "seamlessly" do the conversion from mbox to maildir between the boxes as well. I've got the MasterUser authentication working fine on the new host and was just about to start getting

hello, in which way do you login ? loginuser*masteruser or just masteruser?

Hi, Dovecot 2.1.12 sends panic message when it tries to authenticate some users. Apparently because they use different authentication mechanisms on different email clients at the same time. For example, in debug logs this user uses CRAM-MD5, NTLM and PLAIN in account settings of his email clients. All passwords are stored in plain text (base64) in LDAP. Please advise me what I can tweak to fix

Hi List, I am using the Dovecot 2.1.12 with NTLM authentication enabled. The Dovecot is set up in cluster with directors, 60 000 connections simultaneously. I have noticed that NTLM authentication is processed differently for Thunderbird and Outlook 2010 users. It actually makes Outlook 2010 clients query LDAP more often that Thunderbird ones which is not good potentially for overall performance.

Hi List, I just updated an old sendmail installation to a modern postfix/dovecot system with mysql backend. Everything works fine but SMTP-AUTH fails with some clients. The problem is, that with PLAIN (old) clients send the base64 coded form: USERNAME\0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which, as i understand dovecot interprets as MASTERUSER\0USERNAME\PASSWORD. New clients send \0USERNAME\0PASSWORD which works

Hi. I'm trying to use checkpassword for simple auth and masteruser auth. I have two programs, one called checkpassword-master (for masteruser lookup) and another called checkpassword for normal passdb and userdb lookup). All works fine for non-masteruser authentication (in this case dovecot makes a single call to checkpassword binary). But if a master-user authenticates, dovecot execute
