similar to: Debugging password schemes

Hi, all. About two and a half years ago, I wrote a hack to add an additional MD5-based password scheme to Dovecot, but I wrote it as a hack to src/auth/password_scheme.c since it was relatively easy to do, and I needed to get a machine running since the machine I was replacing, a Sun Ultra 5 running Post.Office, had dying hard drives. Now, I'm actually sitting down and adapting it as a

Hi, all. I was curious how difficult it would be to add a new password scheme to Dovecot? I have to transplant mailboxes from one machine to another, the older machine running Post.Office from now-defunct Software.Com, which was bought by OpenWave, then discontinued. Apparently, Netscape's mailserver offering from the day also supports this scheme. There's code out there that was

Hi, all. I have successfully deployed the code I wrote to handle Post.Office password hashes. However, I had to implement it as a hack to password-scheme.c. I'd like to implement it as a module so I don't have to hack Dovecot whenever a new release comes out. However, I had a few thoughts: 1. I used Dovecot's own MD5 routines in my implementation because I know how they

Hello. I have been having trouble configuring the source code for the abovementioned. I have to use RSARef as I'm a resident of the USA, so I can avoid patent violation. The configure script fails to see the OpenSSL+RSAref mix on three different platforms, including the following: FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE (Which has its own port, but I wanted to try it there to see if I could reliably reproduce

A friend of mine sent me this link: http://linux.slashdot.org/story/09/07/30/130249/CentOS-Project-Administrator-Goes-AWOL I went to the main page and read the letter and the "Facts." Are there any more details, mainly along the lines of CentOS sticking around - I know you folks all work really hard on this, and you know better than me how many others depend on you - but - there's

Running CentOS 5 (long story, will be updated some day). A 5 yr old Dell PE R415. Whoever spec'd the order, they got the cheapest, embedded controller. Push came to shove - these things gag on a drive > 2TB. So, we bought some PERC H200's for it, and its two mates. This morning, I brought the system down, and put in the card, and moved the SATA cables. This did not end well. The new

Hello, am I right, that dovecot can't cope with ldap so authentification is handled by ldap itself? And, for that I have to use {CRYPT} and cannot use other mechanisms as {SMD5} Are there any other possibilities? A --

Hello; I've been playing with a nifty Open Source java based report writer called Datavision (datavision.sourceforge.net) and I've managed to write enough logic to calculate phone bills at different rates from the MySQL cdr's. (cdr_addon_mysql) Eventually I want to have sets of rate structures for each user of the system - so I can bill client A at 3 cents a minute and client B at 2

A few weeks ago, suddenly, reading news at lunch, I could not get to nytimes.com. I could ping it, and nslookup it, and if I put the IP address in place of the name, it was fine. After *much* back and forth over a ticket I put in, over the last week or so, our group figured it out: It *seemed* to be related to IPv6, and there's only *some* few sites, such as the Times, and Orbits, and one or

Dear friends: New to Centos, DVD version 4.4. Fabulous distro, rich in features, applications, very stable and robust. My first install failed to boot up (after rebooting, switching in Bios from CD/DVD to hard drive. This was probably because I chose to install the Grub boot loader in MBR. I got the error message: GRUB, Stage 2 Loading... But it never loaded up. Nothing happened. So, I

Working with a dovecot migration, I am curious what version (if any) of Dovecot (dovecot-auth) supports SMD5 and ldap-MD5 when using Dovecot -> OpenLDAP direct binding? Thank you! Eric

Hi all! I've got a VM at work running C6 on HyperV (no, its not my fault, that's what the company uses. I'd rather gag myself than own one of th ose things.) I ran out of disk space in the VM, so the admin enlarged the virtual disk. but now I realize I don't know how to enlarge the partition and its filesystem. I'll be googling, but in case I miss it, it'd be great if

> Password schemes: HMAC-MD5, RPA, SKEY, PLAIN-MD4, LANMAN, NTLM, SMD5 The web is flooded with plain text passwords and hashed passwords harvested from hacked servers. Dovecot stores passwords with the same scheme used for client authentication. Therefore, we use crammd5/hmac-md5. It does not look like much, but is better than plaintext. As md5 is about to go, and I have no intention to

Hey guys, I have what i think is a really simple problem :( I installed the seqinr library. I want to do an RSCU analysis. But i can't get it to work in even the simplest case. for example, if i have a string read in: > newdata5 $testseq [1] "agtgagatgatagatagatagatagatagatagatagaccccccagata" and then i perform an RSCU analysis on it... >

Hello! I'm storing passwords as MD5 hashes in a MySQL database and have specified "default_pass_scheme = PLAIN-MD5" in dovecot-sql.conf. Can Dovecot append or prepend a salt to a password before hashing them? Because without salt the plaintext passwords can be restored from the MD5 hashes using rainbow tables. Greetings Steffen Weber
