similar to: dovecot: Fatal: Time just moved backwards by 3603 seconds.

Hi, after setting up a KVM based virtual guest on one of our virtualization servers, we see dovecot die on that virtual guest regularly because of an alleged time shift. The virtual guest is Centos 5.4 based with dovecot 1.2.8 (at first we also tried with the original 1.0.7 (?) dovecot shipped with Centos). I wrote "alleged time shift" because there is no timeshift whatsoever, or

Hello, I am experiencing a number of 'Time moved backwards errors' such as: Mar 27 11:38:20 host-78-129-239-60 dovecot: imap-login: Time just moved backwards by 729 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards Mar 27 15:20:10 host-78-129-239-60 dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 4214 seconds. This might cause

OK.. So I synced the clock.... and got .... dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 1 seconds. I'll sleep now until we're back in present. http://wiki.dovecot.org/TimeMovedBackwards ( The first time I did this the clock moved backwards 2 hours after a timezone change and dovecot suicided ) I think I understand the concept ... However a mail server should probably be synchronized to the

Scenario: server PC abruptly switched off due to power cable problems (an UPS cannot solve this issue), so during shutdown Linux was not able to resinchronize the system clock. After a few hours the server come back on, Linux booted and the services (ntpd, dovecot and many others) started But the system clock was 45 minutes ahead, so: Jan 19 11:13:39 gw ntpd[2112]: synchronized to LOCAL(0),

i've dovecot --version 1.2.5 hg log | grep changeset | head -n 1 changeset: 9407:a3e16df805e3 in my logs, i'm seeing ... Oct 05 16:51:40 dovecot: Error: Time just moved backwards by 1 seconds.

This wins the 2007 award for strangest (or most amusing) log message: dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 13 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now. It does, unfortunately, leave dovecot dead, which was pretty mysterious to me. Maybe it could re-exec instead?

Hallo, I am running dovecot on a PC (a workstation) to have a mail client independent storage for my mails. Now I would like to have the system clock set correctly by using ntpd or ntpdate (using debian/sid). The problem is, that the PC is not online at boot time, but is set online on demand manually using "pon" to start the pppd later. So ntpd cannot sync the time on boot time

Hi all, I am running dovecot version 1.1.1 (dovecot --version) and keeps to have time moved backwards problem. I first found dovecot dead without obvious error message, but see the following when restart dovecot service by # service dovecot restart >Stopping Dovecot Imap: [FAILED] >Starting Dovecot Imap: Warning: Last died with error (see error log for more information): Time

Hi there, I got a daily cron (rdate to local time server) job wich adjusts time and which constantly gives me headache. Every day my dovecot suicides with: "dovecot: Time just moved backwards by 11 seconds. This might cause a lot of problems, so I'll just kill myself now." Of course my onboard clock is constantly off by more than 5 secs. I don't want to abandon time

Hi. I'm trying to test EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION in Dovecot. To do this I first configured Thunderbird and Opera to use my server, neither of them were successful. As a result I contacted both organisations to enquire if they supported EXTERNAL AUTHENTICATION in their products. Thunderbird responded and said yes. However, on closer inspection my contact at Thunderbird identified

Dunno, your email provider doesn't want to talk to me, heh, screw them :) They claim i'm on an rbl, no rbl checks verify this.

Good day everyone - This maybe somewhat OT, but I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good tool for cloning *nix drives. The one thing though is that I will be cloning a smaller drive than the destination drive and would like to distribute the free space accordingly on the new drive. Can anyone recommend anything? Thanks in advance. :::::::::::::::::::::: Dustin

Hi. I've made a new attempt at build Dovecot. The build and then install processes appeared to work find. Then when I try to run Dovecot it reports the error: /share/MD0_DATA/optware/opt/sbin/dovecot: error while loading shared libraries: libdovecot.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory To get a better idea of what's going on, I added

Hi, Sorry. This is what I find when I try to run Dovecot. # dovecot -F Segmentation fault If I comment out the SSL configuration values, then: # dovecot -F doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /opt/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: ssl enabled, but ssl_cert not set These are the configure options, "--enable-maintainer-mode" & "--enable-devel-checks" were added

Hi everyone. Please note, I've asked a very similar question before and I apologize for sounding like a broken record. Well here it goes. What I want to do is authenticate my users using a certificate. Thereby authenticating both the user and server with strong tokens that are centrally managed. In the worst case scenario the user should only need to enter a password for the certificate

Dovecot (v1.1.rc8) died tonight, with an error about time moving backwards by 4398 seconds. I can see from logs that this has happend a few times before with the imap processes, without me noticing. I sure noticed the master process missing, though :-). I was puzzled that it was always 4398 seconds, in particular because this server runs an NTP daemon. A little searching for this problem shows

After getting my feet wet with asterisk@home, I want to set up a second asterisk box to add a call shop billing and other add-ons such as LCR. My question is as follows. Is there a backup program that will save to a tape drive or a USB CD Writer so if I mess up an install I don't have to go through a complete reinstall? I saw a few programs out there but they required X windows and from
