[vchkpw] SMTP-AUTH, yet again...
Good thing I stopped shaving my head, else I'd have no hair to pull out... Trying to get SMTP-AUTH working with qmail-1.03, the 0.30 patch from elysium.pl, daemontools, & vpopmail 5.3.9 on OpenBSD 3.2. Tried lots of different stuff last night, nothing worked. Currently, my /service/qmail-smtpd/run file is as follows (aside from linewraps, which are correct in the actual file): - #!/bin/sh QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild` NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild` MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming` LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me` if [ -z "$QMAILDUID" -o -z "$NOFILESGID" -o -z "$MAXSMTPD" -o -z "$LOCAL" ]; then echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, MAXSMTPD, or LOCAL is unset in echo /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run exit 1 fi exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l "$LOCAL" -x \ /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \ -u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \ "$LOCAL" /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true 2>&1 - Running with the file above, I get errors in the log like this: Dec 3 12:01:43 athena vpopmail[19117]: vchkpw-smtp: vpopmail user not found kit @interdyne.net:208.36.84.242 The user [EMAIL PROTECTED] is able to receive mail no problem. If I change the run script to use `id -u vpopmail` & `id -g vpopmail` instead, attempts to auth fail with no logging. I've tried eliminating the variables just to make the script as simple as possible: - #!/bin/sh exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -lmail.interdyne.net -x \ /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c 25 \ -u 89 -g 89 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \ mail.interdyne.net /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true 2>&1 - (89:89 is vpopmail:vchkpw) I have no clue why this is not working & there's a sizeable dent in my forehead that matches the edge of the desk. Anybody care to smack me with the clue-by-four here?

[vchkpw] POP3 authentication error for default domain (userid without @domain trails)
Dear Friends, ** Problem indication [please kindly don't judge before you read "My Setting" section]: ** 1.) I cannot authenticate pop3 (telnet mail.testlah.com 110) with "ferytjhia", but it success with "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" or ferytjhia%testlah.com. I check log at /var/log/maillog, which tells me that whenever I try to log in without "@testlah.com" it cannot find user "ferytjhia", but it--paradoxically--successes for "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" Dec 3 18:29:28 mail vpopmail[8761]: vchkpw: vpopmail user not found [EMAIL PROTECTED],:192.168.1.108 Dec 3 18:29:41 mail vpopmail[8764]: vchkpw: login success [EMAIL PROTECTED]:192.168.1.108 "ferytjhia" is a user at virtual domain "testlah.com" (not defined at /etc/passwd) and I can see it at mysql database "vpopmail", table "vpopmail". No problem with receiving mail (I can see a mail coming at /home/vpopmail/domains/testlah.com/ferytjhia/Maildir/new). It also fails when I try using "fery" user (which is a user registered at /etc/passwd, NOT at virtual domain "testlah.com"). 2.) If I change file /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-pop3d/run: "/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw" --> "/bin/checkpassw", it can authenticate "fery" (which is a user registered at /etc/passwd), without using "@cobalah.com" ** My Setting (more on below): ** - I already compile with "--enable-default-domain=testlah.com" (and mysql, the rest configuration are below) - My authorized machine name is mail.cobalah.com (which is not likely to be used) - I want all my testlah.com user authenticate pop3 with their userid (without "@testlah.com") - I want to use one virtual domain (testlah.com) only for all my users (using mysql) - I used "lifewithqmail" qmail-1.03, ucspi-tcp-0.88, daemontools-0.76, checkpassword-0.90.tar.gz, qmail-pop3d-maildirquota.patch, vpopmail-5.2.1.tar.gz, autorespond-2.0.2.tar.gz, ezmlm-idx-0.53.316-1.i386.rpm, qmailadmin-1.0.6.tar.gz, Redhat linux 7.3, MySQL 2.23.49 Please help me.

RE: [vchkpw] Adding users
This has been covered, check the archives more :) 1) how are your current accounts held, /etc/password mysql db 2) there is vconvert command that will convert to a usuable format for vpopmail. 3) the archives have an example script you can do if your user names and passwords are in a text file. Search for post from me, as I asked this same question.

Re: [vchkpw] courier-imap tends to stop authenticating after awhile
I had the same problem for about three months. I finally made the mods that I had seen in the archives for vpopmail to remove the authdamon and my problem went away. I am using vpopmail 5.3.9 qmail 1.03 and courier 1.5.3 I do not run the authdamon's at all. that was the only way I could get it to work. - Original Message - From: "Taylor Dondich" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, November 25, 2002 1:28 PM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] courier-imap tends to stop authenticating after awhile > Okay, update to my problem.
