Hello,
I faced the problem with samba (AD) + mutt (gssapi) + dovecot (imap). From
dovecot log:
Jan 2 17:58:42 server dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Input buffer full (no
auth attempts): rip=192.167.14.16, lip=192.167.14.16, secured
My situation:
CentOS 6.2
IMAP: dovecot --version: 2.0.9 (CentOS 6.2)
MUA: mutt 1.5.20 (CentOS 6.2)
Kerberos: samba4 4.0.0alpha17 as AD PDC
$ klist -e

Etype (skey, tkt): arcfour-hmac, arcfour-hmac
I fixed this problem with enlarging LOGIN_MAX_INBUF_SIZE. I also red about
wrong lower/uppercase
but it's not definitely my problem (I tried all possibilities of lower/uppercas
in login).
I sniffed the plain communication and the "a0000 AUTHENTICATE GSSAPI" line has
around 1873 chars.
When I enlarged the LOGIN_MAX_INBUF_SIZE to 2048 the problem disappeared and
I'm now able to login
to dovecot using gssapi in mutt client.
I use also thunderbird (on windows with sspi) and it works ok with
LOGIN_MAX_INBUF_SIZE = 1024.
Does anybody have any idea why it's so large or how to fix it another way? It's
terrible to
patch each version of dovecot rpm package. Or is there any possibility to
change constant?
I have no idea how much this should affect memory usage.
The simple patch I have to use is attached.
Please cc: to me (luf at pzkagis dot cz) as I'm not member of the this list.
Best regards,
Ludek Finstrle
