I have a server roark (fedora core 5 with samba 3.0.23a-1.fc4.1) with a home directory awilliam. I'm trying to mount it on my linux workstation (fedora core 5, samba 3.0.23a-1.fc5.1). On my workstation I do: mount -t cifs "//roark/awilliam" /mnt/roark-awilliam/ -o username=awilliam,password=xxxxxx and when I cd to /mnt/roark-awilliam, ls works, but if I cat a file I get the

I added myself into OpenLDAP and deleted my user account from /etc/passwd. Now samba complains in the log file: Jan 25 10:17:56 roark smbd[2767]: build_sam_account: smbpasswd database is corrupt! username awilliam with uid 511 is not in unix passwd database! however, I'm resolving my awilliam with nss_ldap, so I can ssh and su -l awilliam fine. so shouldn't samba be able to get

The mail server responded: Target mailbox doesn't allow inferior mailboxes." I am running dovecot version 1.0.13-6.fc8 under Fedora 8.

Hello, I have dovecot set up with expire-tool to nuke Junk messages greater than 30 days old. On a server with many user accounts, it seems to work on most of them. However, on my user account, expire-tool skips my Junk folder entirely, despite it containing messages from January of this year. Here is the expire-tool --test output: Info: alex at scienceforums.net/Junk: timestamp 1284027481 (Thu

Hi guys, I was wondering... my Inbox is 1.3GB large, my mailbox size limit is 6GB (6442450941). Other users have 500+ MB in their Inbox. I have about 27GB of mail. I'm running dovecot 1.0.7 now under Fedora 7 with postfix. I have no trouble at all, everything is working perfect. I use ext3 as my file system, and I store mail in maildir format. Will I have any inode, file system, issues? Is

My Windows XP SP3 clients aren't loading their logged_in_username.bat from my netlogon share, and I can't figure out why. It looks like in the log file the Windows PCs are loading the script, its just not executing it on the windows PCs for some reason, but if I click start, run, and type in \\roark\netlogon\scripts\jholland.bat it runs fine. Running samba 3.0.31 and here's the

Hi, i don't know. Is normal login_max_processes_count > 1024?? Our environment is about 1700 users (imaps + thunderbird or imaps+horde). The server is RedHat Enterprise Linux 5.2 User logins different in a hour: # cat dovecot.info | grep 'Nov 11 10' | grep "login: Login" | cut -d'<' -f2 | cut -d'>' -f1 | sort | uniq | wc -l 685 Logins in a hour:

I am having a problem getting users that were added in smbldap-useradd to be able to login. After I add them they are visible, but you can see I get this error - pdb_get_group_sid: Failed to find Unix account for test10 I believe that this has something to do with nss_ldap. because doing a getent passwd, it doesn't display any smb info. Any debugging info or help would be amazing, I'm

Hi, today I have built dovecot from cvs sources, and upgraded server from beta-7 to this newer version. Then i got problems with opening INBOX using thunderbird 1.5.0.2. The client says "Opening folder...", then, after about half a minute, blinking "connecting to the server" and returning to "Opening folder..." /var/log/maillog gets the messages: --- Jun 22

I have also looked to see if the dovecot.conf file is

Hi, I just installed dovecot 1.1.11 and am having some issues. Mail appears to be delivered to the Maildirs just fine, but when a client (Thunderbird) tries to retrieve them I get this: dovecot: IMAP(info at aedisit.com): maildir_file_do(/var/mail/ > aedisit.com/info/cur/1251566335.V14I27a91M380600.kim): Filename keeps > changing After turning on mail debug mode, I get this: Aug 29

I'm trying to configure dovecot on a SUSE system, and having trouble with the simplest possible authentication scheme: using the standard Linux users and passwords. My configuration is: dovecot -n # 1.1.7: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.27.45-0.1-pae i686 openSUSE 11.1 (i586) protocols: imap pop3 ssl_listen: * ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir:

Having tried and failed to get 1.0.8 with quota-rewrite to send warnings, I removed the 1.0.8 and installed the latest 1.1 - however I still can't get the warnings! Can someone advise what might be wrong - it must be my configuration?? To compile 1.1 I used ./configure --with-deliver --with-mysql. I've chopped and changed my conf till I'm blue in the face. My dovecot-mysql.conf file

Hi, I just upgraded to from dovecot v1.1.15 to v1.2.9 so I can use dovecot- sieve. Most everything seems to work but my webmail (roundcube) clients are not seeing their subscribed folders. Reading over the upgrade docs at http://wiki.dovecot.org/Upgrading/1.2 I'm wondering if I have the two settings below configured correctly. dovecot.conf: mail_location =

I recently am attempting a mbox to Maildir conversion, initially for a single email address, and then for everyone. To further this diagnostic here is the dovecot -n: dovecot -n # 1.1.4: /etc/dovecot.conf base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ protocols: imap pop3 ssl_disable: yes disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/libexec/dovecot/imap-login

I am playing around with dovecot and want to use local filesystem for indexing. But whenever I open a new imap connection the following warning is shown: Apr 30 10:14:42 beira dovecot: Mailbox indexes in /app/home/gasi are in NFS mount.
