Greetings Using FC7, dovecot-1.0.3-6.fc6 and maildir I have a recurring problem with permissions. We have a (real) account on the system called "custs". Within the email account for custs there exists some 300 folders, one for each customer. This worked okay originally with mbox. Everyone had access to their own email folders and they all had access to the "custs"

Greetings I have a customer who has mail server running dovecot with an IMAP account (Customers) which contains hundreds of folders (one per customer). Looks like this: Customers Fred Smith and Co Joe Blogss Cust-1 Cust-n They have a requirement to report monthly on the total number of emails added to each customers' folder during the month. Basically I need to be

Hi I have a customer who is having a problem with Samba password changes. The samba server (server12) is set up as a PDC for a WIndows domain with XP clients. Samba is Version 3.0.26a-SerNet-RedHat. OS is Centos 3.9. There is also a separate mail server (server56) running FC6 which uses NIS for user validation. NIS server is running on server12. Generally speaking, everything is working and

Greetings Running Fedora Core 3 and dovecot-0.99.13-3.FC3 as a production mail server for around 30+ accounts. A couple of times a day dovecot just stops. Nothing in the mail log except for Apr 26 00:48:19 sydsrv05 imap-login: Can't connect to auth process at default: Connection refused It's got to the point that I have put a script into cron.hourly to restart the dovecot service

Greetings We just updated two RH9 servers to 3.0.14a-1 and are still seeing a lot of errors in the logs. They're not stopping us working but I would _really_ like to understand what is causing them. On the first server, in the logwatch, we get a whole swag of: samba: Unknown Entries: session opened for user janicer by (uid=0): 6 Time(s) session opened for user sonjap by

I'd been hoping to move all of our site to ssh protocol 2 whilst we are still small enough to do this without serious pain, however the lack of authentication and connection forwarding is making that difficult at present. I see the current (2.2.0p1) code base does not have the code on either client or server side for ssh2 to handle tunneled connections or authentication agent. Is this

As an experiment I set up Challenge/response authentication on a Linux system with PAM using a pam_opie module (this module works fine with console logins and su). I can log into the box using the opie password, *but* it does not give me the challenge - which can make things a little tricky :-) I can well believe this might be a fault in the PAM pam_opie module I am using, so has anyone got

Thanks to some of the guys on #samba-technical (obnox in particular!), I now have a working samba configuration. The environment: In our setup each user has an entry in both openldap (no samba schemes) and AD. Each account has the same name and even has a Unix UID entry in AD. Our users ssh into Linux boxes, authenticating off of openldap. Files are shared via samba. Due to the account

Hi A quicky - has anyone had success with an X100P in the UK ? I'm seeing some oddness - when I plug the wall socket into the card, I lose dialtone. If I unplug it, it comes back. Does this sound familiar to anyone ? Cheers Nigel Nigel Taylor Technology Director ITAzure Limited Dunn House Warren Park Way Enderby Leicestershire LE19 4SA 0116 286 3016

Long ago, when I wrote the ssh config file on my desktop box, ssh (which might have been the non-openssh one) took 3 possible values for the StrictHostKeyChecking option - yes, no & ask. Today, when I attempted to connect to a new machine, with no DNS entries (so using IP address) from my desktop box, ssh (now 2.3.0p1) SEGVed. Looks like there is some subtle interaction between having an

Good morning! I run an imap-only Ubuntu 8.04 mail server with dovecot 1.2 and pam_ldap, so all my users are posix users. No virtual user or domain, no sql so far. I am setting up shared folders with "namespace shared". I got no errors upon restarting the service, but I get no shared folders listing. As per the wiki http://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared I can use a bdb

Hi, I'd like to create a shared folder to be used with an Outlook client and a Thunderbird client. We're currently using mboxes. I've read the documentation here about creating a shared folder: https://wiki.dovecot.org/SharedMailboxes/Shared It doesn't make reference to how to do this using mbox format. Is it possible? Should we convert to Maildir? Perhaps there's a way to

Hi, I''m trying to get RAdmin [uses tcp 4889] access to my Windows machine which is behind my firewall.

Stephen et al, You may remember me raising the point that the new e2fsprogs (1.25 as I remember) griped about old journals not having all the appropriate fields zeroed. I've just discovered that the RH 7.2 installer produces journals (ie on partitions created as ext3 from within the installer) that flag these warnings with a modified 1.25 e2fsck (the mods being to clear the errors rather

Hello all, I've setup samba Version 2.2.0a on Slackware 8.0 # uname -a Linux slackware 2.4.5 #6 Fri Jun 22 01:38:20 PDT 2001 i686 unknown I start samba as root from a console as: /usr/sbin/smbd -D -d10 -l /var/adm/smblogs/log -s /etc/samba/smb.conf /usr/sbin/nmbd -D -d1 -s /etc/samba/smb.conf In smb.conf I have: [files] comment = mystuff valid users = nigels path = /usr1 read

Hi Aki I see what you are saying, and no I don?t believe so. I?m using typical /etc/passwd for the user db. I reviewed https://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields <https://wiki.dovecot.org/UserDatabase/ExtraFields> but I?m not clear on how to actually return system_user userdb attribute. I also have set mail_user_groups = sharedusers in dovecot.conf and then in /etc/group put all

Howdy folks! I've been trying to research how to (or if possible at all) implement public folders using the namespace feature on a server with multiple virtual domains. After about an hour of looking around I'm a little confused. :) I guess there are two questions: 1) Is it possible / does it work? 2) If yes, does anyone have a sample configuration or write-up of How You Did It[TM] to

Hello all. At XMOS we are working towards updating the upstream XCore backend for newer versions of the chip. XCore is the XMOS processor. The XCore backend was written by Richard Osborne at XMOS. Richard has moved on. The current code owner in CODE_OWNERS.TXT, Robert Lytton, has also moved on. For some years XMOS has developed the compiler in-house, for new versions of the chip, but not

I appear to have a broken filesystem on this box to the point where I am probably going to rebuild the system since I have lost trust in it.... I was wondering if there was any reasonable postmortum work I could do on it before it gets rebuilt. History is that the laptop has a much mauled partition set on it - initially it came with 100% win2k, I then shrunk that and added linux (a RH71 install

We have a server running Centos-3 with all latest updates. The server hosts 3 printers for us which are accessed by various Windows clients. About 3 months ago we noticed that, after a cups update, if you looked at the print queues in Windows they would show old jobs that had long been printed. After a further cups update this quirk went away but it's just come backs again - possibly after
