I am using Openbsd 2.6 and I am having a problem with checkpassword.
When I do the test in the install doc for checkpassword
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup host /bin/checkpassword pwd
It works fine, verifies my user id and password. When I try to telnet
to the server using it's fqdn on port 110 I get this:
atlas# telnet atlas.teoi.net 110
Trying 206.30.147.56...
Connected to atlas.teoi.net.

-ERR authorization failed
Connection closed by foreign host.

If I telnet to localhost i get the same error as above but the line with
the numbers@atlas etc has different numbers. The same happens if I try
this from any machine in my subnet. Here is what one of my machines
with win98se & outlook express (the one for IE5) spit out at me
There was a problem logging onto your mail server. Your Password was
rejected. Account: 'atlas.teoi.net', Server: 'atlas.teoi.net', Protocol:
POP3, Server Response: '-ERR authorization failed', Port: 110,
Secure(SSL): No, Server Error: 0x800CCC90, Error Number: 0x800CCC92
I can send mail out and get it at the destination address with out any
problems. I have tried turning on and off the "require authentication"
option in outlook but no luck...gave me another error which was obvious
(not running ssh/ssl on the pop3d). I haven't tried this in netscape
communicator's mail, the only machine I have it on is mine running RH61
and ns 4.61. I am using the win98 box with outlook so I don't have to
mess with my netscape on my machine. I'm going to replace my slackware
box with the openbsd eventually. Another thing I noticed is my pop3
sessions are getting logged, splogger is logging my smtp but they are
setup the same as far as I know. Here are my start up's for both:
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/tcpserver ]; then
echo -n ' Qmail-smtp'; /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -v
-u 2850 -g 32750 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1 \
/var/qmail/bin/splogger smtpd 3 &
fi
if [ -x /usr/local/bin/tcpserver ]; then
echo -n ' Qmail-pop3'; /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R 0 pop3
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup atlas.teoi.net \ /bin/checkpassword
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 2>&1 \ /var/qmail/bin/splogger pop3d
3 &
fi
Please let me know if this wrong, it appears to work for the smtp
without a problem. I saw an example on one of the web sites that put a
| right after 2>&1 and when I did that splogger wouldn't load...error
said it couldn't find it. I took the | out and and it loaded but pop3d
is only one not logging.
Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestions.
