I've got vpopmail/qmailadmin installed on a Debian 2.2 system and am having a problem with vchkpw.  I have done this install on other Debian systems configured the same way, and didn't have this problem.  When I telnet into port 110, and put in my username and password, the connection immediately closes. No explaination is given by the host.  In the logs, I get this:
 
mail vpopmail[19213]: vchkpw: setgid 0 failed errno 1 user@domain:IP
 
This is how I'm invoking qmail-pop3d:
 
/usr/bin/tcpserver -g89 -u89 0 110 /usr/sbin/qmail-popup HOSTNAME \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/sbin/qmail-pop3d Maildir &
 
89 is the GID and the UID for the vpopmail user. The group is vchkpw.
 
Mail is delivered to the Maildirs OK. I have also checked to make sure qmail-pop3d is working by invoking it with checkpassword and checking a POP account for a local user.  Only when vchkpw is used do I have a problem.  Any help would be much appreciated.
