Jens & Josh,

Thanks a ton for all your help. I pieced together everything and was able to make tls & chkuser happy by doing the following:

running qmail-smtp as the vpopmail user
changing ownership of /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem to qmaild.vpopmail (440)
compiled chkuser2 patch without the uid/gid switching

My logging issues were due to not having generated the cdb files in /etc/tcprules.d (tcp.qmail-smtp.cdb); once I created these files the logging started working right away. Looks like everything else was simple a permissions problem. This was a lot harder to figure out without logging. Once I got logging working correctly the problem made itself obvious.

Thanks again for all your help.

Matt

I don't have it enabled, and I have no problems running qmail-smtpd as
vpopmail:vchkpw using tcpserver flags (-u vpopmail -g vchkpw).  Which TLS
patch set are you using?

I am using the Gentoo ebuild and I have read all the negative
information reguarding the state of the ebuild but as I am new to Gentoo
and qmail I thought it would be a good route for me.  As such, I'm not
to sure how to answer the TLS patch question.

I do believe I've ran my issue down to a permissions problem.  When I
run qmail-smtpd as the vpopmail user & group chkuser works but TLS does
not.  The opposite happens when it is ran as the qmail user.  I have
edited /etc/group and added qmaild to the vpopmail group and vpopmail to
the qmaild group (qmail-smtpd was set to run as ${QMAILDUID} by default)
but that did not fix the problem.

The issue I'm experiencing is compounded by the fact that I'm running
qmail-smtpd with chkuser on port 2525 so as not to affect users on the
standard port.  I have been thus far unable to make logging of the
second service work so I can't tell what file(s) are being permission
restricted.

If you're running default-setup in gentoo:

mkdir /service/$YOURSERVICENAME/log

and create a file
/service/$YOURSERVICENAME/log/run

with the following contents
- -------- SNIP ------------
#!/bin/sh
# Gentoo Startup script for qmail's SMTP daemon (logging)
# $Header:
# /home/cvsroot/gentoo-x86/net-mail/qmail/files/run-qmailsmtpdlog,v 1.1
# 2003/11/30 11:32:06 robbat2 Exp $
SERVICE=smtp
source /var/qmail/bin/qmail-config-system && \
exec /usr/bin/setuidgid qmaill /usr/bin/multilog \
${LOG_OPTS} ${LOG_DEST}2
- ----------- SNAP --------------

make it executable (chmod +x) and you'll have your log in
/var/log/qmail/qmail-smtpd2/current



If anyone has any suggestions as to what file permissions I could check
out, I'm all ears.  Thanks again for all your help Josh.

Maybe try "chmod g+s /var/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw"

Matt
