I have tried getting qpopper to work with PAM on a Solaris 8 box. I
configured with ./configure --with-pam=pop3 and the compile goes fine. I
make install. I edit /etc/pam.conf. I edit inetd.conf to allow pop3 and
restart inetd.

The pam.conf is :

pop3    auth required   /usr/lib/security/$ISA/pam_krb5.so.1

The inetd is:

pop3   stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/local/sbin/popper  qpopper -t/tmp/pop.log 
-s

The error message I get is:

Jun 20 18:09:45.783 2001 [19952] mp1 at i4.nyu.edu (128.122.108.192): -ERR

(i4.nyu.edu) 128.

Has any one gotten qpopper to work PAM on Solaris? Anyone know what this
error means?

Thanks,

Michael
