Hi Timo,others, Adding login_access_sockets = tcpwrap wasn't enough : I also had to recompile dovecot 2.0.13 with the --with-libwrap option. Then linking failed as it didn't link with libnsl.so but that was easily fixed.
However, if I try to connect now with tcpwrap switched on I still have a problem. It doesn't connect and shows the following error message : tail /var/log/dovecot.log Jul 27 15:05:42 auth: Debug: Loading modules from directory: /opt64/dovecot-2.0.13/lib/dovecot/auth Jul 27 15:05:44 auth: Debug: auth client connected (pid=20071) Jul 27 15:05:44 imap-login: Error: connect(tcpwrap) failed: No such file or directory Any idea what I might have forgotten ? Thanks a lot for the response ! regards, Kees Lemmens.
