I try to configure dovecot with virtual users. I put my users file in folder /etc/dovecot/my_domain_name/users. My auth-passwdfile.conf.ext file looks like this: passdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/%d/users } When I try to log in, I get this: dovecot: auth: Error: passwd-file(test,some.ip.addr.here,<rQT+ziijGE1tpoAB>): stat(/etc/dovecot//users) failed:

Hi, The args parameter of userdb contains scheme, username format and location of the password file. Please take a look this link https://doc.dovecot.org/configuration_manual/authentication/passwd_file/ For example, mine is: userdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/imap.passwd } $ head /etc/dovecot/imap.passwd to at localhost.local

Hello all I use debian 9 with dovecot 2.x: real system users and virtual users: almost all works perfectly ;) Virtual users can connect via imap and pop using name + domain name: user00 at domain1.org, etc. pam (real system users) users can connect via imap and pop ONLY without domain name It's a problem with pam authentication because linux make users authentication with only username

Thank you for the reply. In old server (production1), I have changed like this for passdb. rest all i kept the same. passdb { args = /etc/dovecot/master-users driver = passwd-file master = yes #pass = yes } passdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%u /etc/dovecot/passwd } Now I am getting the below Authentication error from

I am not sure if I understand it correctly, that this configuration is for each user has its mailbox in its home directory. This is not my intention, I have in 10-mail.conf the mailloration configured as: mail_location = maildir:/opt/local/var/spool/dovecot/%u:LAYOUT=fs > On 23 Mar 2023, at 12:37, Duc Anh Do <doducanh2710 at gmail.com> wrote: > > Hi, > > The args parameter

Hi, There is a note in the document: *For a password database it?s enough to have only the user and password fields. For a user database, you need to set also uid, gid and preferably also home (see VirtualUsers). (gecos) and (shell) fields are unused by Dovecot.* You can leave empty what you don't need.

I tried to log in as test at some_domain. From thunderbird client. Although, I get this logged after before mentioned log: imap-login: Disconnected (auth failed, 2 attempts in 14 secs): user=<test>, method=PLAIN, rip=some.ip.addr.here, lip=another.ip.addr.here, TLS, session=<rQT+ziijGE1tpoAB> On Mon, Apr 13, 2020 at 1:16 PM Ivo < c.e4ed1a035298f9021dcfbca4d511c303 at ultra.hr>

Hello I am attempting to use an external IMAP server for authentication, on Dovecot 2.3.16 (7e2e900c1a), running on Ubuntu 22.04. The external server requires usernames of the format: user at domain However, my local users, where the mail is actually drawn from, are of the format: user (passwd file driven). I was able to log in with just "user", and have it both authenticate

very intrigued by your solution Timo, have attempted something similar in the past to no avail. When I tried I was unable to retain the user at domain when setting the domain as extra field - protected is new to me and can't find documentation - but also doesn't work :( # cat passwd.domains 10.100.1.1:::::::domain:protected=foo.org 10.100.1.2:::::::domain:protected=bar.org # cat

Thank you for the response. So, both password files (master and regular user credentials) have the same contents in this scenario, correct? -Kishore On Mon, Aug 3, 2020 at 11:42 PM Joseph Tam <jtam.home at gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, 3 Aug 2020, Kishore Potnuru wrote: > > > =============== > > Jul 28 11:14:23 auth: Fatal: Master passdb can't have pass=yes if there
