After hours of playing around with this setup, I think I finally figured
out a way to make Configuration 2 work. ./vaddaliasdomain mail.mydomain.com mydomain.com Works beautifully, please ignore my ignorance. J Shawn -----Original
Message----- 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
