Except that it's not what I can use.

Marc, go read the pages that Lena wrote.  In it are the ACL stanzas you need.

I need to set a variable

set acl_m_auth_failed = true

If authentication fails. How do I do that?

Unlike routers, authenticators don't "do" anything.  They simply describe
a configuration for that type of authentication.

To do something on a failed login, you have to use ACL configurations
as described by others.

Here are my authenticators:

dovecot_plain:
    driver = dovecot
    public_name = PLAIN
    server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
    server_set_id = $auth1

dovecot_login:
    driver = dovecot
    public_name = LOGIN
    server_socket = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client
    server_set_id = $auth1

How would I add something like server_condition that would let me do
something on a failed login?

Hi Marc,

Is there a way for an ACL to do something on authentication failure?
I'm
trying to trap the IP addresses of hackers trying to guess passwords.

Thanks in advance
Have a look at acl_smtp_auth.  I also use an extended or condition on
the authentication :-

....

         server_condition                =       ${if or
{${authenticated_lookup} {${perl{Run_A_PERL_SCRIPT_HERE}}}}}

My actual condition is a bit more complicated but the above serves
to illustrate.

It basically says if the authenticated lookup succeeds, then continue
if it fails then run the perl script.  You can then do the processing
with the perl script - I use it to count failed attempts and log them
to a file - it could quite easily be used to firewall IP addresses etc.

Typical old fashioned shell script short circuit.
