Hi all, we're running a Sun Fire 280R with Solaris 9, sendmail, qpopper and UW-imapd. We recently applied the Sun Patch Cluster from August 26th.
Afterwards, we encountered serious problems concerning qpopper: Each time a user tried to fetch mail from our server, the pop3 dialog cancelled when submitting the user's password, and qpopper gave a PAM error. We could solve the problem by "switching back" to: CRYPT_DEFAULT=__unix__ instead of: CRYPT_DEFAULT=md5 in /etc/security/policy.conf In addition, we had to delete and "recreate" Unix passwords for all the users who have been created in the period since we've been using md5 passwords. Has anybody got a glue why qpopper does'nt work with md5 passwords after having installed August's Patch Cluster? 'showrev' reveals the following: Release: 5.9 Kernel architecture: sun4u Application architecture: sparc Hardware provider: Sun_Microsystems Domain: Kernel version: SunOS 5.9 Generic 117171-08 Jul 2004 We're running qpopper in version 4.0.5 (non-standalone) which was built using the following configure options: /configure \ --enable-shy \ --with-pam=other \ --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl \ --enable-log-login \ --enable-specialauth When using the UW ipop3d instead of qpopper, everything works fine. If you need any further information, please feel free to contact me. I'm very looking forward to getting any hints from you.
