vchkpw

2001-10-10 Thread Are Haugsdal {HiMolde}



Hi
 
I recieve email to the correct mailboxes etc, but 
when cheching email, it says vchkpw failed:incorrect password in the 
log.
 
I have moved the assign file from another server, 
and rebooted. Since recieveing goes nice, and I don´t get any warning otherwise, 
what could be wrong ? The /vpopmail  (and subdirs) is chmod 700, 
.qmail-default 600.

Re: duplicated email problem. help me

2001-10-10 Thread Bruno Negrao

Well, I had the problem of duplicated (3x,4x!...) messages here in my system
and these multiple equal messages were not related with the dot-qmail files.

I solved it using a perl script called eliminate-dups
http://qmail.valueclick.com/eliminate-dups it accounts the messages before
they are left in the maildirs preventing that two equal messages are stored
into a maildir.

For vpopmail 4.9.10,

head config.status

or, if you must grep, use

grep "^# ./configure" config.status

Basically, config.status tells you in the first few lines with
which switches configure was run. You are looking for the

--enable-roaming-users=[y|n]

switch.

** Sent: Wednesday, October 10, 2001 2:06 AM
** To: Troy Settle
** Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
** Subject: RE: User Directories in 5.0
**
**
** Ah, I see your problem.
**
** vpopmail does not create the directory if it doesn't exist.

Bingo!  But just a few hours ago, you said "Worked for me. created user
directories."  What's wrong with this picture?

**
** What is does is:
**
** If the user does not have a directory assigned to them..
** then it creates the directory,
** and updates the authentication system with the directory.

I saw this, but it's not quite what I need.  The directory is already
assigned, it just needs to be created.  I can not leave the directory
assignment up to vpopmail at this time, for two reasons.  The first is that
the authentication database will be read-only (because it's just a small
part of a huge billing system called Platypus).

The second reason, is that I don't like the way vpopmail does it's directory
hashing.  Granted, someone put a lot of thought and work into the current
directory hashing scheme, but it makes it damned hard to find an individual
user's directory.  Right now, I have to cd into the domain's directory, grep
the username, read the directory, then issue another cd.

Much easier to just cd ~vpopmail/domains/foo.com/u/s/user

Or even `du -sh ~vpopmail/domains/foo.com/u/s/user/`

Oh, and doing 2 directory hash based on the first 2 characters of the
username yields well over 1000 top level directories.  This is more than
sufficient for systems with 10's of thousands of users, and probably well
into the hundreds of thousands of users.

**
** If you want to go ahead and just
** rm -rf /home/vpopmail/domains/test.com/*
** Then vpopmail can not help you.

Never said that was what I wanted to do.  That was for demonstration
purposes only (actually, I did a mv so I could mv it back and forth for
testing purposes as I worked on my code).

**
** vpopmail delegates the responsibility for file
** system integrity to the file system drivers.
** It does not attempt to duplicate the file systems
** responsiblity of maintaining the integrity of
** the file system.

Where did I say anything about filesystem integrity?  In almost 8 years,
I've never had any issues with UFS, and don't expect to either.

**
** Why the heck would you want to go and delete
** users directories once they are created?
**

Again, that was for demonstration purposes only--to make it clear that
vpopmail does not, and can not, at this time, create user directories.  This
worked in 4.8.5 but does not work in 5.0.

I think Yuri has the answer to my question.  I'll work it into vdelivermail
and vchkpw, then submit it as a patch with the rest of my work when I'm done
and you're ready to accept contributions for 5.1.

RE: vchkpw

2001-10-10 Thread Troy Settle


Are,

This is because vpopmail checks the CDB to make sure the domain really
exists.

IMO, this is silly because if the domain didn't exist, then neither would
it's directory or it's vpasswd(.cdb).  My current solution, is to do a
vadddomain on both machines, which in itself is a mess because vadddomain on
the second machine will exit with an error that the domain already exists.

Note to the guys at Inter7: For some of us, qmail/vdelivermail runs on one
machine while pop3/vchkpw runs on another.  NFS mounting ~vpopmail is ok
because qmail will defer if it's not availiable.  NFS mounting /var/qmail is
NOT ok because that will render one machine or the other inoperable.

However, when I did a 770 on the .vpasswd file in one of the domains, I get 
this status message in Eudora and Outlook:

When viewing the maillog, it says nothing about this error.  I have also

I was seeing this exact same problem last night. It turned out
that there was a problem with tcp.smtp.cdb being updated. I saw
nothing in the logs either. There were a load of
tcp.smtp.tmp.XXX lying around in /var/spool/pop3/etc. I did some
cleaning up and that seemed to fix things.

Hi

If anyone can give me something else to try, I would REALLY apriciate it. Have tried 
to solve the same problem for 8 hours, it still gives me error when checking mail.

I have done everything I can think of, I have also removed the vpopmail and qmail, and 
reinstalled it. Shouldn´t be a permission problem, since qmailadmin uses the same

Could it be a issue with this 5.0 version ? How may I make a even better removal of 
all files, to install an older version ?

This is my start command in rc.local :
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -u 502 -g 501 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \ 2>&1 | 
/var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup ns1.domain.no 
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw &
/var/qmail/rc &

How much is the price to fix a thing like this, if anyone know who I could use to do 
this ?

Re: vchkpw

2001-10-10 Thread Brandon Ramirez

It looks to me like you are missing the /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d part in
your second tcpserver call.

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
ns1.domain.no /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d &
should work

Hi

If anyone can give me something else to try, I would REALLY apriciate it.
Have tried to solve the same problem for 8 hours, it still gives me error
when checking mail.

I have done everything I can think of, I have also removed the vpopmail and
qmail, and reinstalled it. Shouldn´t be a permission problem, since
qmailadmin uses the same password-list, and shows all pop accounts.

Could it be a issue with this 5.0 version ? How may I make a even better
removal of all files, to install an older version ?

This is my start command in rc.local :
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -u 502 -g 501 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd
\ 2>&1 | /var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &

Vpopmail 5.0 and MySQL w/ QMAIL 1.03

2001-10-10 Thread Michael T. Grubb

I have a bit of an issue with users being denied authentication temporarily.
>From time to time users are being denied authentication for no real good
reason.
This is a fairly high volume site.  When the users hit retry a couple times
it will go through.
I changed the max_connections variable of the MySQL database to match the
concurrency number
for vpopmail which is 400 for about 6000 users. I thought it might have been
an issue of not enough sessions to serve the users but when I looked through
the logs for a 400/400 I didn't find anything. Any suggestions or perhaps
some architecture change suggestions would be swell.
I am currently running this thing on a PIII 500Mhz w/ 256MB of ram and
plenty of hard drive
space on a 100Mb nic.

Thanks in advance.




null domain problems redux

2001-10-10 Thread Nathan J . Mehl


So, doing a bit of actual debugging here...  (This is hampered by the
fact that all the C I know, I learned from reading perl and guessing;
my apologies in advance.)

My problem with being unable to authenticate users in the null domain
appears to reside somewhere in vauth.c, around line 369:

if ( domain == NULL || domain[0] == 0 ) {
snprintf(vpasswd_dir, MAX_BUFF, "%s/users", VPOPMAILDIR);
} else {
snprintf(vpasswd_dir, MAX_BUFF, "%s", Dir);
}

I prepended a bit of debug code:

openlog(LOG_NAME,LOG_PID,LOG_MAIL);
syslog(LOG_NOTICE,"domain: %s \r", domain);
syslog(LOG_NOTICE,"vpopmaildir: %s \r", VPOPMAILDIR);
closelog();

...and came up with some very interesting results (formatted here for
legibility):

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vpopmail[26697]: 
[ID 644755 mail.notice] domain:  ^M

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vpopmail[26697]: 
[ID 210808 mail.notice] vpopmaildir: /project/vpopmail ^M

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vchkpw[26697]: 
[ID 117675 mail.notice] vchkpw: system user not found velcro:127.0.0.1

...well, sure enough, "0xD3 0xE4" isn't NULL or 0, so that's why
it's not setting vpasswd_dir to VPOPMAILDIR/users.  But where the heck
is that string coming from?  

Any insights from the list would be appreciated.

clearopensmtp strangeness

2001-10-10 Thread Bill Shupp

Since upgrading to 5.0 final beta on our production machines, I get this
error randomly from clearopensmtp (run from cron every 30 minutes):

tcprules: fatal: unable to create
/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp<€@0M N/Å;¨‡ÿ¿°Ù: file does not exist


I get them in groups of 5, each one minute apart.  Anyone else see this?  I
can't reproduce it when manually running clearopensmtp.  Does this just mean
the files are locked or busy?  Roaming users seems to be working fine.

Cheers,
