Am I right in thinking that this should work fine with the vpopmail password checking program "vchkpw"?


It should if 'vchkpw' is compatible to the standard checkpassword. I
programmed this plugin because i use an custom checkpassword too.

Thinking a little further about this, how about a plugin that interfaces to various checkpassword implementations, i.e. runs an external program with a username/password pair and returns success or
fail depending on the exit code of the program?

Details of the checkpassword interface here:

Other implementations detailed here:

Basically, the plugin would take a program name as a parameter and
run it with username/password.

Does that sound feasible?

Don't know why I didn't find your post from 29/07/04!
