Ok, what I get is a bit strange: First it tries to read /var/qmail/users/cdb (and gets a no such file), then it tries to open: ####/vpasswd.cdb, where #### is an odd capital B (but different), 2 u characters with accents, and an upside down question mark. This also returns "no such file". Checking on the actual mailservers there is indeed a cdb file in qmail's ~/users directory, however it doesn't exist on the Linux box, even though both qmail and vpopmail are running. <tries adding a test domain> Ok, that created /var/qmail/users/cdb, but vuserinfo is still trying to open ####/vpasswd.cdb, where #### is a different set of strange characters, and getting a "no such file". I guess this is the point of failure (it's wanting to open the password file for that domain), any ideas how I persuade it that the files are available? Hmm - tried adding a domain again - this time it locks the terminal and gives a "file busy try later" error.
