Hi all!!
I am new here and i have an IMAPs related question. I have tried to set
up the IMAP over SSL server in an alpha server with red hat 7.2 three
times :-(
In my last try i have followed this instructions:
-- Securing-Optimizing-Linux-The-Ultimate-Solution.pdf
When compiling the IMAP i have made all the changes except this one
because of the alpha architecture:
Edit the Makefile file (vi +425 src/osdep/unix/Makefile) and change the
line:
BASEFLAGS="-g -fno-omit-framepointer -06" \
To read:
BASECFLAGS="-03 -march=i686 -mcpu=i686 -funroll-loops
-fno-omit-framepointer" \
Then i did:
- make lnp SSLTYPE=unix
- i created the file /etc/pam.d/imap
- i enabled the service imaps via xinetd and i started it
- The server listens in port 993
Now is where i get confused, the server is going to run inside a LAN
(sanson.fer.net->192.168.1.12) and i want the clients to get their
emails from both inside and outside the LAN. Is this possible? (i guess
so)
Now i have to make the certificates. And here is where i get lost.
Reading the document it says that it is very important to know the Fully
Qualified Domain Name (FQDN)
Our mail accounts are [EMAIL PROTECTED] and we get the mail throw
fetchmail to the local machine SANSON.fer.es also called mail.fer.es
When i make the certificate, in the option COMMON NAME if i put
mail.fer.es, when i try to get the mail with evolution it requieres me
to introduce the password for [EMAIL PROTECTED] (my own account). I also
have an account in that server with a password, but if i introduce it it
is not validated, here is the /var/log/maillog
Mar 28 11:13:09 sanson imapd[28654]: imaps SSL service init from
192.168.1.6
Mar 28 11:13:15 sanson imapd[28654]: PAM pam_parse: expecting return
value; [...requiered]
Mar 28 11:13:15 sanson imapd[28654]: PAM pam_parse: expecting return
value; [...requiered]
Mar 28 11:13:20 sanson imapd[28654]: Command stream end of file, while
reading line user=fmf host=atun [192.168.1.6]
And here is where i get stocked :-(
I was thinking about changing our local PCs from name.fer.es to
name.fer.net to make it equal to our internet name ...
Any idea? any help will be apreciated
Gracias!!
