I’m having a problem with vpopmail 4.9.6-1 and virtual domain pop
authentication. I’m looking for a solution that will actually work for the
default domains and all domains. I’ve been successfully running vpopmail 4.6
with ip-alias-domains with no authentication problems, but I’m moving all mail
for mydomain.com to the server now, and I want to have it as the primary
domain. I’ll try to keep this short, but I’ll also try to explain everything in
as much detail as possible. Here are the problems I’ve had with two different
configurations: Examples of DNS: 192.168.0.11 – mail.mydomain.com (forward and reverse match, actual name
is mail.domain.com) 192.168.0.10 – main-server-ip.mydomain.com (forward and reverse match) 192.168.0.30 – myvdomain.com (forward and reverse match, reverse is
domain.com, not mail.domain.com) vpopmail directory structure: myvdomain.com mydomain.com mail.mydomain.com symlinked to mydomain.com Configuration 1: ./configure --enable-default-domain=mydomain.com --enable-roaming-users=y
--enable-ip-alias-domains=y --enable-apop=n --enable-passwd=n I can telnet to the pop server on mail.mydomain.com and authenticate
without the trailing domain name (%mydomain.com or @mydomain.com) Ex: telnet mydomain.com 110 <server greeting>, user username
<ok>, pass password <ok>. I can telnet to the pop server on mail.myvdomain.com and authenticate
WITH the trailing domain name, but not without it. Example: user/pass does not work, user%domain/pass does work. (Note: This worked beautifully before I added the default-domain
configuration option) Configuration 2: ./configure
--enable-roaming-users=y --enable-ip-alias-domains=y --enable-apop=n
--enable-passwd=n I can telnet to the pop server on mail.mydomain.com and authenticate
with the trailing domain ([EMAIL PROTECTED]), but it will not work as
only the username. (Note for quick readers: the vpopmail mail.mydomain.com is symlinked to
the actual mydomain.com folder, but the IP resolves to mail.mydomain.com) I can telnet to the pop server on mail.myvdomain.com and authenticate without
the trailing domain name. I’ll quickly overview the problems with the two configurations: 1: default-domain is compiled in, only the default-domain can
authenticate without a trailing %domain 2: default-domain is not compiled in, all domains but mydomain.com can
authenticate without a trailing %domain because the ip for mydomain reverses to
mail.mydomain instead of mydomain. If anyone can help me out with a possible solution it would be greatly
appreciated. I’ve recompiled this to try different options about 10 times now,
but I wasn’t anywhere close to where I was with these two options. I’m figuring
what I need is a way for default-domain to work with ip-alias-domains or a way
for a symlinked folder to work with vpopmail (or a reason why it’s not
working). Thanks in advance for any help you can offer. Shawn __________________________________________________________________________ Shawn Delano
