default domain via MySQL

2001-10-10 Thread Yuri A. Kabaenkov

Hello,

  Why default domain works only throught .qmail-fault file.
  I am using 5x RELENG and try to add default email throught
  valias or manualy insert proper line in mysql table. But it
  doesn't works.

  Why this problem exists?

 Hi
 
 I recieve email to the correct mailboxes etc, but when cheching email, it
 says vchkpw failed:incorrect password in the log.
 
 I have moved the assign file from another server, and rebooted. Since
 recieveing goes nice, and I don´t get any warning otherwise, what could be
 wrong ? The /vpopmail  (and subdirs) is chmod 700, .qmail-default 600.

 Hi
 
 Thanks for the suggestion. I have only one server, have just tar/untared 
 these files ower.
 
 However, when I did a 770 on the .vpasswd file in one of the domains, I get 
 this status message in Eudora and Outlook:
 
 ERR: aach, child crashed

I was seeing this exact same problem last night. It turned out
that there was a problem with tcp.smtp.cdb being updated. I saw
nothing in the logs either. There were a load of
tcp.smtp.tmp.XXX lying around in /var/spool/pop3/etc. I did some
cleaning up and that seemed to fix things.

Adam.

 
 When viewing the maillog, it says nothing about this error.  I have also 
 tried coping the cdb file over,  but that didn´t help. What is strange, is 
 that I can access the accountts trough qmailadmin, and vew all pop 
 accounts, change password etc..

pop users?

2001-10-10 Thread Remo Mattei

Hi guys, I would like to see if I can create a user and redirect all
email to a /dev/null.

it's for a script that' s running on the server and I do not want the
message failure coming into my mail box.

THANKS

Re: vchkpw

2001-10-10 Thread Are Haugsdal {HiMolde}

Hi

If anyone can give me something else to try, I would REALLY apriciate it. Have tried 
to solve the same problem for 8 hours, it still gives me error when checking mail.

I have done everything I can think of, I have also removed the vpopmail and qmail, and 
reinstalled it. Shouldn´t be a permission problem, since qmailadmin uses the same 
password-list, and shows all pop accounts. 

Could it be a issue with this 5.0 version ? How may I make a even better removal of 
all files, to install an older version ?

This is my start command in rc.local :
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -u 502 -g 501 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd \ 21 | 
/var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup ns1.domain.no 
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw 
/var/qmail/rc 

How much is the price to fix a thing like this, if anyone know who I could use to do 
this ?

It looks to me like you are missing the /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d part in
your second tcpserver call.

/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R 0 pop3 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup
ns1.domain.no /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d 
should work

 By using --enable-default-domain=domain.name

 domain does not exist. 
 
 By using ./vadddomain domain.com and creating default

Vpopmail 5.0 and MySQL w/ QMAIL 1.03

2001-10-10 Thread Michael T. Grubb

I have a bit of an issue with users being denied authentication temporarily.
From time to time users are being denied authentication for no real good
reason.
This is a fairly high volume site.  When the users hit retry a couple times
it will go through.
I changed the max_connections variable of the MySQL database to match the
concurrency number
for vpopmail which is 400 for about 6000 users. I thought it might have been
an issue of not enough sessions to serve the users but when I looked through
the logs for a 400/400 I didn't find anything. Any suggestions or perhaps
some architecture change suggestions would be swell.
I am currently running this thing on a PIII 500Mhz w/ 256MB of ram and
plenty of hard drive
space on a 100Mb nic.

Thanks in advance.




null domain problems redux

2001-10-10 Thread Nathan J . Mehl


So, doing a bit of actual debugging here...  (This is hampered by the
fact that all the C I know, I learned from reading perl and guessing;
my apologies in advance.)

My problem with being unable to authenticate users in the null domain
appears to reside somewhere in vauth.c, around line 369:

if ( domain == NULL || domain[0] == 0 ) {
snprintf(vpasswd_dir, MAX_BUFF, %s/users, VPOPMAILDIR);
} else {
snprintf(vpasswd_dir, MAX_BUFF, %s, Dir);
}

I prepended a bit of debug code:

openlog(LOG_NAME,LOG_PID,LOG_MAIL);
syslog(LOG_NOTICE,domain: %s \r, domain);
syslog(LOG_NOTICE,vpopmaildir: %s \r, VPOPMAILDIR);
closelog();

...and came up with some very interesting results (formatted here for
legibility):

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vpopmail[26697]: 
[ID 644755 mail.notice] domain: D3E4 ^M

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vpopmail[26697]: 
[ID 210808 mail.notice] vpopmaildir: /project/vpopmail ^M

Oct 10 18:27:56 bigtime vchkpw[26697]: 
[ID 117675 mail.notice] vchkpw: system user not found velcro:127.0.0.1

...well, sure enough, 0xD3 0xE4 isn't NULL or 0, so that's why
it's not setting vpasswd_dir to VPOPMAILDIR/users.  But where the heck
is that string coming from?  

Any insights from the list would be appreciated.
