I've got qmail running without a hitch on my main server, problem is the backup server. I rsync'd all the data from server A to server B and I have a permissions problem on my mail directories.
Entry in /var/log/maillog:
Mar 14 20:26:47 backup imapd: chdir "/home/vpopmail/domains/mysqerver.com/me": Permission denied.
Of course the names have been changed to protect the innocent..
I can chmod them but that's a cheat, any help would be greatly appreciated. By the way I set qmail up on server B using the toaster, must have missed something.
Try:
chown -R vpopmail:vchkpw ~vpopmail/domains
When migrating data, it's always easier if you setup the new system with the same vpopmail/qmail uids/gids as the old server. And use -a with rsync to preservce permissions.
Regards,
Bill
