similar to: chdir failed, but requires group permissions

I've had this issue for sometime, I finally gave up and switched to Courier-Imap but I'm finding I hate data storage / structure so I decided to give dovecot another go but am still running into the same issue. I had this working once upon a time and can not for the life of me figure it out. Here's some basic info. Dist: Gentoo 2005.1 Emerge Info: net-mail/dovecot-1.0_beta8

Full_Name: Alex Galakhov Version: 2.1.0 OS: Linux (Debian) Submission from: (NULL) (195.19.131.68) After software upgrade source() does not work properly anymore. It completely ignores the chdir= parameter. This is because is.character(file) is always false after the assignment file<-file(file). The fix is (written by hand in diff-like syntax, hopefully, you'll understand it):

daemon.c does just a chroot, without chdir. The result is that pwd does not work correctly (it causes fs/dcache.c:prepend_unreachable() to add the unreachable string). A workaround is to add "cd /" before each sh command. ><fs> mount /dev/sda2 / ><fs> sh "cd / ; chroot / ; /bin/pwd" / ><fs> sh "/bin/pwd" (unreachable)/ ><fs> sh

Hallo, one of my colleagues has problems with Samba (V 3.0.32). Samba runs on a Linux server (Slackware 2.6.29.6), some clients are attached via a Windows Terminalserver. Wiederum war auf dem Windows-TS 1(!) User in die Arktur3.6 -Dom?ne f?r ca 20 Minuten angemeldet und hat dabei ca 4400 Meldungen in die /var/log/messages geschrieben.

I'm on R 2.1.0. In the "source" function there is a bug preventing the proper use of the chdir option (which simply doesn't work). The problem is that in the function the following line occurs: file <- file(file, "r", encoding = encoding) This overwrites the variable "file" and later causes the check if (chdir && is.character(file)

Dear R-users, I used to give commands such as: > source(file="~/path/to/file.R", chdir=TRUE) but with the latest v. 2.1.0 it does not seem to work anymore. I tried to figure out what it was going on and it seems that the string for which > class(file) [1] "character" is changed to > class(file) [1] "file" "connection" when the connection is

Hi, I'm having problems accessing home directories though NFS. This setup uses LDAP and Kerberos. Users defined on the local host work fine.

Hi Dovecot fails to chdir() into users home directory giving the following error: Oct 9 16:43:49 jura dovecot: dovecot: Fatal: chdir(/a/home/mina) failed: Permission denied (euid=1118 0(mina) egid=11332(devel) missing +x perm: /a/home) Oct 9 16:43:49 jura dovecot: dovecot: child 14441 (imap) returned error 89 (Fatal failure) The reason seems to be that user primary group is "devel"

Perhaps it could be useful to have a "CHDIR" config-file directive? I'm thinking it'd override anything passed by config.c32. I'm also thinking it'd be a config-file-global, rather than a LABEL-specific, option. Then a config-file could set its own working directory without using config.c32 as an intermediate step. Does this seem like a reasonable feature to have? -

Hello, I am trying to configure rsyncd to mount destination encrypted FS (using EncFS) before syncing. In my rsyncd.conf : [test] path = /home/dest <...> pre-xfer exec = sleep 30 ; echo mypassword | encfs -S /home/ encrypteddir /home/dest ; sleep 30 (I have put "sleep 30" instructions just to make some tests) /home/encrypteddir is correctly mounted by rsyncd to /home/dest
