Hello,
i have a test-system with 2 cyrus mail servers (squeeze and
squeeze-slave) running cyrus-imapd 2.4.13.
When plaintext logins are not allowed (allowplaintext: no) sync_client
crashes after some time.
Here is what the kernel log shows after crash...
Jan 18 18:36:08 squeeze cyrus/sync_client[19784]: sync_client RESTART
succeeded
Jan 18 18:36:08 squeeze kernel: [20819.197061] sync_client[19784]
general protection ip:7f1fcef7d1f9 sp:7fffaa8f4e10 error:0 in
libcrypto.so.0.9.8[7f1fcee6c000+175000]
Jan 21 12:10:04 squeeze-slave cyrus/sync_client[18798]: sync_client
RESTART succeeded
Jan 21 12:10:04 squeeze-slave kernel: [125161.364980] sync_client[18798]
general protection ip:7f9db3cbe1f9 sp:7fff8b8ba9c0 error:0 in
libcrypto.so.0.9.8[7f9db3bad000+175000]
Both servers are configured as sync_client and sync_server, so they
replicate each other.
I KNOW this is not recommended (on our productive-system we have this
running over 2 years now without any problems but with "plaintext logins
allowed" because of one stupid app which can't handle encrypted
connections).
To prevent any problems only one server has the "magic"
failover-ip-address which allows access.
Both servers are runnung debian squeeze and using ldap authentication
via saslauthd.
cyrus-imapd is compiled with openssl and openldap with gnutls (installed
from apt-repo).
When I compile openldap with openssl there are the same sync_client
crashes too.
I don't know if this is a sync_client tls connection problem or a
problem with libcrypto.so.0.9.8 from openssl.
What I can tell is that there are no problems with imap, pop3 and sieve
tls (starttls) connections via saslauthd with openldap.
Can you help me out so I can disable plaintext logins?
Regards
Darius
