I figured out the reason that APOP was failing on Solaris 8...
the libraries are located at /usr/local/lib and qpopper was seeking
/usr/lib
a simple symlink to /usr/local/lib solved that trouble. This happends only
with the NEW 3.1b6
Ironically, on another exact same machine...qpopper compiled fine, but
after initial popauth -init nothing will work:
# popauth -user joe
popauth: unable to open POP authentication DB /etc/pop.auth:
Permission denied (595)
I did verify that it was compiled with apop user pop and all the
permissions are set fine..I tired this 3X just to be sure...no luck.
I did notice, that when I do a popauth -init on THIS machine, I see two
files in /etc:
/etc/pop.auth.dir
/etc/pop.auth.pag
whereas on the original Sun machine, I do not see these files....I wonder
if this points to the source of the trouble?
I cannot understand this, as both machine are SUPPOSED to be identical.
Thanx!
