Hello all

I am trying to install UW IMAP mail server on a Red Hat 9 system. The system and other software are installed from RH distribution
RPMs using defaults.


Problem: Everything seems to be O.K but login attempts fail.

Telnet localhost 143 output:

Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4REV1 LOGIN-REFERRALS STARTTLS AUTH=LOGIN] localhost.localdomain IMAP4rev1 2001.315rh at Mon, 25 Aug 2003 17:10:50 +0300 (EEST)
1 NO LOGIN failed
* BYE [...] IMAP4rev1 server terminating connection
2 OK LOGOUT completed


Corresponding line in /var/log/messages:

imapd[xxxxx]: Login failed user=xxxxxx auth=xxxxxx host=xxxxxx

Incorrect password outputs an additional line:

imap(pam_unix)[xxxxx]: authentication failure; logname= uid=0 ...

Authentication is by PAM (default settings), /etc/pam.d/imap:

#%PAM-1.0
auth    required    pam_stack.so    service=system-auth
account    required    pam_stack.so    service=system-auth

/etc/xinetd.d/imap:

service imap
{
   socket_type        = stream
   wait            = no
   user            = root
   server            = /usr/sbin/imapd
   log_on_success    += HOST DURATION
   log_on_failure    += HOST
   disable            = no
}


Are IMAP logins rejected by default? How?


Thanks,

Tom
