Sometimes the crypt funtion in the crypt libraries don't actually
work. Like on standard slackware systems. That could be the
problem.

 Hi Peter
 
 I was half way through writing a very same message.
 
 I'm running the same on FreeBSD 4.0-STABLE,
 and experience the same problem. Interesting
 things to note are that I'm
 - not getting this problem for shell a/c users
 - getting this problem for virtual users, regardless of whether
I use mysql or normal storage.
 
 I'm also getting this problem on all versions from 3.4.11-2

 hum, from reading the code, it would appear that
 this error occurs when checking to see if they are real users [1]
 
 - so, they have not been identified as vpopmail users.
 
 - why, I'm not sure. I'd like to use mysql for my authentication
 and it would be quite helpful to get a log of all the sql executed
 against the database. However,  can't quite see how to do that.
 
 - where in either vmysql.c or vchkpwd.c is the actual
 authentication code?
 
 any clues welcome ken!

 [1] note that the checking of real users works, so the vpopmail
 stuff is executing as a valid passwd-readable user id.

would it be possible to force it to use real crypt libraries and
compile them in / can you tell me which files from a redhat install
I need / how to edit the make file to include them?

thanks

I'm not sure.

are you using the default cdb authentication module?

well, I'm not aware if i'm not! If it helps, the stuff
in the cdb directory get's compiled in. I'd like to use
mysql auth if possible.

- so, I think so.

Does the user get added to the vpasswd file in the
  ~vpopmail/domains/domain name/ directory?

yes, it does.
