Look at qmail-pop3d-ssl.run
       


Sorry - I mean /var/qmail/boot/qmail-pop3d-ssl/run (but its exactly the
same...)
This is placed there by running 'make setup check' in the qmail-ldap
source directory.

 

I have this script in /var/bin/boot but will copying it to
/var/qmail/service
and creating a link to it in /service (to start using it with svc) is
enough?
     

I guess this dont worked because svscan look for run and not for other
files like "qmail-pop3d-ssl.run"
 

No, that was a typo, as I understood. Also above /var/bin/boot should 
read /var/qmail/boot

 

I have /var/qmail/control/cert.pem and the control/*cert files in place.
I already have tcpserver running, patched with tcpserver ssl/tls patch.
     

With permissions like this?
rw-r-----  1 qmaild  qmail  /var/qmail/control/cert.pem
 

Yes, the permissions are correct. Excatly as you indicated above. (my 
smtp is already running on ssl)

I tried linking /var/qmail/boot/qmail-pop3d-ssl in
/var/qmail/service/qmail-pop3d-ssl
and creating a link to /var/qmail/service/qmail-pop3d-ssl in
/service/pop3d-ssl
   

Why do you linking /var/qmail/boot/ directorys to /var/qmail/service and
then to /service?
My svscan is looking at /service. Therefore I linked the needed
service-directorys to /service.
You have to do:
# ln -s /var/qmail/boot/qmail-pop3d-ssl/ /service/qmail-pop3d-ssl
 

I did similar thing, and thats why svstat /service/qmail-pop3d-ssl showd 
me desired status.

But, before you do this, go to /var/qmail/boot/qmail-pop3d-ssl and type
./run
tcpserver: status: 0/40
tcpserver: status: 1/40
tcpserver: pid 38667 from xxx
tcpserver: ok 38667 xxx:xxx:995 :xxx::53016
pbsadd unable to read controls                [1]
tcpserver: end 38667 status 0
tcpserver: status: 0/40
[1] you can comment out pbsadd in the run-filerun
So you can see if this works out... (you can connect with telnet and
then with an POP3-SSL capaple Client to port 995 and see whats going on)
If this all OK, you can place the link into /service.
Thank you very much for the help. This step worked. After commenting out 
pbsadd
it gave me all the output on terminal. There I found that it is not able 
to find control/qmail-pop3d.cdb
and thats why it was dropping connections. So I just copied the file 
from /service/pop3d/tcp.cdb
to control/qmail-pop3d.cdb and voila. It worked. So I uncommented pbsadd 
line and now its working
without problem.

Thanks again.
