pop users?

Re: vchkpw
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 ?

Vpopmail 5.0 and MySQL w/ QMAIL 1.03
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
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. -n [EMAIL PROTECTED] It is inhumane, in my opinion, to force people who have a genuine medical need for coffee to wait in line behind people who apparently view it as some kind of recreational activity.
