[qmailtoaster] POP3-Connector-like piece for Qmail?

2007-04-05 Thread Nolan Garrett

I am interested in a POP3-Connector like piece for Qmail.  Basically this
would get a users mail via POP3, and then store it in the local vpopmail
mailbox.  Has anyone heard of such a thing?  Any thoughts on where I could
find one, or how I could implement one?


Thanks!

Nolan


[qmailtoaster] QmailToaster, Multi-Domain Hosting, and Backup MX?

2006-12-27 Thread Nolan Garrett

Hello!

I have Qmail configured to host email for multiple (local) domains.  I also
need it to act as a backup mx for three particular domains.  I've read
around a bit, and so far what I've found on Google hasn't much helped me in
figuring out how to configure this.  Has anyone tried this?  Any idea how I
perform this?

Thanks!

Also, in my case, I had to turn SELinux off.

Suexec follows a stringent set of criteria before it will execute a CGI. Check this list of 20 criterion and see if you've configured qmailadmin to pass all of them:

/etc/httpd/conf/toaster.conf accordingly. I don't think suexec will 
let you run it through a symlink.

Re: [qmailtoaster] Suexec apache2 qmailadmin

2006-11-13 Thread Nolan Garrett




I don't know if this helps or not, but in my case I was required to
rename qmailadmin to index.cgi, and change it's ownership to vpopmail
and vchkpw. This user and group was given a UID and GID  500.
Also, I had to recompile suexec using the directions from the link
below so that I could execute out of /usr/share/qmailadmin.

Re: [qmailtoaster] hardening qmailtoaster

2006-09-06 Thread Nolan Garrett
I've run Bastille, and found that it did not affect my Qmail
installation in any way, but that many of the changes that Bastille
proposes are well explained and do enhance the security of the box.

Chris Marcellin wrote:
 Hi;

 I've searched the list on this subject before posting, and there is
 little mention of it. I was wondering if anyone has tried hardening
 their toaster with Bastille, or any other hardening tool. Besides the
 normal shutting down of services via chkconfig, and locking down
 important files with chattr, and iptables.  Has anyone run Bastille
 hardening tool after the installation of toaster. And if so,
 pros/cons, please. I have written a tutorial/reminder on server
 hardening, but, I'm not sure if this would suffice for a toaster
 install, I'm not sure if it would interfere with user rights, perhaps
 even lock the server too much. If anyone is interested you can check
 it out at:

 Please, note, I'm not an Linux Admin like many of you, so, perhaps it
 may be simple for you.  Tell me what you think!

Re: [qmailtoaster] Error while trying to authenticate

That is exactly what I did, and it has been functioning fine for over 24
hours now, so I think we're good to go.  Do I still need this soft link
to mysql.sock in my /tmp directory?  Doesn't seem like I would, now.

I started compiling and installing the qmail-toaster package to resolve
those packages you'd stated earlier weren't upgraded, but it was working
fine with just a courier-authlib recompile.  I have a new error now,
something to do with mrtg - not sure what it means:

WARNING: Problem with External get '/usr/bin/qmailmrtg S /var/log/qmail/spamd':
   Expected a Number for 'in' but got 'failed to open dir /var/log/qmail/spamd'

ERROR: Target[spamd][_IN_] ' $target-[3]{$mode} ' did not eval into defined

I was lucky enough to get 200 cron email messages with this error.  I
uninstalled qmailmrtg for now, since I don't use it, but I always
thought it'd be nice to use for informational purposes.  Recompiling and
installing qmailmrtg didn't help.  Thoughts?

 Basically from my testing, you at LEAST need to rebuild and recompile

 This package for sure builds against some static libraries in mysql5
 and vpopmail.
 To make sure everything went right, I would also rebuild and reinstall
 qmail-toaster, and courier-imap-toaster. I haven't dug into these
 files to see if they compile using the libraries in vpopmail and
 mysql, but better safe than sorry.
 Hope that works for everyone else. It's worked so far on my test

 Nolan,
 If you can stand it, can you recompile *only* courier-authlib? Then
 we'll have some idea of what really needs to be rebuilt and what
 doesn't. It would make sense (to me who knows little) the that
 courier-authlib might be the only thing needing rebuilding. Well,
 possilby qmail-toaster too due to pop3 and smtp auth.

This the the same error I am dealing with, on FC5 with

any fix and (as you can see) have applied the update at

[qmailtoaster] Qmail, vpopmail: vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away

2006-08-25 Thread Nolan Garrett
I'm using the Qmail Toaster package from www.qmailtoaster.com. Approximately every 24 hours, clients are unable to connect to vpopmail/Qmail, and the following error is in my /var/log/qmail/authlib/current file:

vmysql: sql error[3]: MySQL server has gone away
Stopping and starting Qmail fixes the problem. I've performed the steps listed at: 
http://qmailwiki.inter7.com/Vpopmail#When_using_MySQL_for_authentication.2C_I_get_the_error_vmysql:_sql_error.5B3.5D_MySQL_server_has_gone_away and everything seems to be fine.
I've also installed the latest vpopmail from the devel.qmailtoater.com site, in hopes that the problem would be resolved that way. My current toaster packages are listed below.

This SQL server is not a busy server. It hosts a PHP Nuke site, which gets about 5 hits a month, and that's about it.

No errors in the MySQL log files. Additionally, I've run Qmail-toaster this way for well over a year, with no problems. The issues occured when I upgraded to the lastest versions of everything from the 
Qmailtoaster.com site - I then upgraded to the next version of vpopmail from the devel.qmailtoaster.com site in an atttempt to fix the problem.

I could make a cron job to just restart qmail, but that doesn't seem like an elegant nor long term solution... it's just avoiding the inevitable problem...

Re: [qmailtoaster] DSPAM with QMT

I am using DSPAM with QMT, successfully for over a year now. It took a
little bit of tweaking, but I got it to work. I posted several links
on my site that helped me get it all together.

Hope it helps!

Will do - it'll be a few weeks though.

Thanks!

Re: [qmailtoaster] DSPAM with QMT

2006-08-25 Thread Nolan Garrett
In my opinion, DSPAM is much easier to train and use than spamassassin. 
I happen to have spamassassin installed as part of the Qmail-toaster
packages, but DSPAM, after being trained with like 100 messages, had a
97% accuracy right away.  After a year of training, I now see a 99.5%
accuracy rate.  At this point, I have never seen a message that was spam
that DSPAM didn't catch but spamassassin did - but I never really
trained spamassassin (is that possible?) or know anything about it's
actual operation.  I tried using it for two days, and decided to use
DSPAM instead.


I'll try to get this up on the wiki soon - I'll have to spend some time
remembering how I did it.

 So DSPAM is like spamassassin?

 Is it better? or it's best to have both installed at the same time?
 Thanks
