Hi,
I seem to be forced to run the auth proces as root because I want to use
pam for local users. My gut feeling says that this is Not Good. Is there
another way?
For the virtual users 'vmail' is good enough because that user may
access the MySQL database.
If your /etc/shadow is readable by "shadow" group, you can use
auth_user=something that uses shadow group as the primary group (maybe
create a new "doveauth" user).
TNX Timo. I have added vmail to the shadow group. Now it may read
/etc/shadow.
