Hello,
 
I had a disaster when I used rsync to transfer some existing domains from one machine to another.  I am attempting to restore service to this domain on the new machine but I have a problem. 
 
-bash-2.05b# vdominfo bsdpeople.com
domain bsdpeople.com does not exist

-bash-2.05b# vadddomain bsdpeople.com
Please enter password for postmaster:
enter password again:
Error: Username exists
Ok so I comment out the postmaster in the vpasswd file
 
-bash-2.05b# vadddomain bsdpeople.com
Please enter password for postmaster:
enter password again:
Error: Domain already exists
What should I do now?  I am root, can I override the password for postmaster from the command line? 
 
I have tried renaming the vpasswd.cdb and then trying the various /home/vpopmail/bin/  tools.  I have the vpasswd file and all the Maildirs so I should be able to salvage this and not have to rename the existing folder, delete the domain name, and then recreate the domain, and from there move all the mail back and then fix all the permissions which are bound to get screwed up.
 
Thanks
 
 
Rick Up
