RE: [courier-users] PAM Authentication Problem (Newbie question)?

Title: Message

I think that this may be my problem.   I inspected my authlib subfolder and did NOT see the authpam file.  I had read earlier that the pam-devel library needs to be installed for Courier-IMAP to compile the authpam module.  I downloaded and installed the pam-devel-0.75.46.7.3.rpm from Redhat.  Incidentally, I have pam-0.75.46.7.3 installed.  I rebooted the server and made a rpm of courier-imap-1.4.3.tar.gz.  I installed the new courier-imap rpm, but the authpam file is still missing?  Any idea what I'm doing wrong? -----Original Message----- From: Gabriel Calderon [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 27, 2003 1:20 PM To: 'John C.

Check to see that you have authpam in the authlib subfolder, if you don't you need to compile PAM support for courier. Also if you are trying to use pam with winbind make sure that your system does not have an auth-system-winbind, if it does you should use this instead of auth-system in your imap or pop3 pam authentication file.   Hope this helps   -----Original Message----- From: John C.

I've edited my /usr/courier-imap/etc/authdaemonrc file.  Specifically, I changed the following Authmodule list to: Authmodulelist="authpam" Any insight would be appreciated. John
