hosts and resolv.conf seemed to do the trick. Thanks much guys!

I hope this helps.

Whatever you're running chrooted, the following files in /etc are
good candidates for your ${chroot}/etc:

group   localtime   passwd  pwd.db  services
hosts   master.passwd   protocols   resolv.conf spwd.db

Of course, *passwd* et al should be created from scratch.

Hello misc@,

I am having a problem getting a webmail package (InstantWebMail) to work 
properly under OpenBSD 3.7 in the chroot. It is a simple PHP application 
that connects directly to a POP server. Everything is installed from 
packages.


When it tries to connect to the server, it outputs this error:

fsockopen(): php_network_getaddresses: getaddrinfo failed: 
non-recoverable failure in name resolution


I cannot tell what resource it is trying to access.

Can anyone give me a pointer on where to look?

Thanks much!

I'm not familiar with InstantWebMail, but it sounds like you've got it 
set to connect to a POP server by hostname rather than IP. Either change 
it to an IP in the config, if applicable, or better yet, copy 
/etc/resolv.conf into the chroot (/var/www/etc). I'm willing to bet 
that's the problem...

man getaddrinfo tells you what that function does.
There is an error in the name resolution.
You are in a chroot

I bet you have to copy /etc/resolv.conf to the chroot :-)

2005-06-02 Thread Jason Crawford
My guess is you need to put a copy of /etc/resolv.conf in the apache
chroot (as in, /var/www/etc/resolv.conf), because your webmail
application is trying to resolve the hostname for the pop server. If
you are using a hostname, try an IP, if they are on the same box, tell
it to use 127.0.0.1 for the pop server, so then you don't have to
worry about using encrypted pop.

Probably resolv.conf.
