[gentoo-user] Sorta OT: cant connect ipad to a courier imap ssl server

2011-12-09 Thread W.Kenworthy
I am having a problem connecting an ipad via ssl to a gentoo courier
imap ssl server.  Its working fine with gentoo/evolution but I get a
segfault in the server when the ipad tries to connect:


couriertls[12283]: segfault at ec9c78e ip 4c144feb sp bf95557c error 4
in libc-2.12.2.so[4bfff000+183000]

Ive rebuilt most of the packages involved and getting nowhere.  Can an
ipad use a courier imap server over ssl?  Theer are a lot of bugs over
the years for both courier and apple IOS and the only solution Ive seen
thats said to work is turn off ssl.  The ipad does work fine without
ssl!

I am currently travelling and my laptop works fine over ssl and also via
an openvpn connection which software is apparently not available for the
ipad.

Can anyone offer a solution - even some way to set a static route on the
ipad to connect to the tunnel running on the laptop would work.  I have
used RIP from the router to tell the ipad the routes in the past - but I
dont have access to the router here to set up RIP :( - and of course I
can find any RIP implementation for the ipad to allow it to read the
laptops RIP routing updates :(

Snookered!

	We've had a number of issues with iPad/iPhone connecting to internal 
dev sites with self generated certs. Is your cert self generated? Also 
which mail program are you using? You might try K-9 and see it that 
works though I assume it'll depend on the same shared libs and will 
likely behave the same.
