Ok. I see your problem. For what you want to do, your userdb entry is wrong. It should be: test home=/home/courierusers|[EMAIL PROTECTED]|systempw=testpw|gid=100|uid=1011 Do NOT put the domain name after the username in the userdb entry, and list your local domain ONLY in the "locals" file. > -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- > Van: Anand Buddhdev [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Verzonden: maandag 10 juni 2002 10:45 > Aan: M. van der Kolk > CC: Courier Mailinglist > Onderwerp: Re: [courier-users] question setting up userdb > > On Mon, Jun 10, 2002 at 10:02:29AM +0200, M. van der Kolk wrote: > > > I'm having a problem setting up the userdb authentication.
