Re: [vchkpw] MySQL

2003-02-07 Thread Gary Stewart
with the mysql auth thing and had no luck till about 10 minutes ago,
when I decided to strip the --enable-clear-passwd=n from my
./configure
options.

Isn't vconvert supposed to understand non-clear passwords and
convert them?





AFIK it is, but I too do not understand the inner workings really.
I've only been running qmail for about a year. Maybe someone on the
list can answer with more insight than I can provide?

I don't think that anybody here want to write yet_another_mta, probably if

Not to mention there are those of us that don't want 300 patches
integrated into qmail.  Patches should be used on an as-needed basis,
not simply because they exist.  And even then, it's highly recommended
that one look for an add-on app that will supply the requested feature
instead of patching the qmail source.

[vchkpw] vpopmail/qmail + non virtualdomain aliases/forwards

2003-02-07 Thread Stratsimir Kolchevski
Hi there,

I'm administrating hosting server with over 50 virtual domains and I 
want a signle account to receive
the mails sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (e.g. to receive the mails sent 
to: abuse@domain1,
[EMAIL PROTECTED]) The only solution I am aware of is to make 
.qmail-abuse in every domain dir,
but then the postmaster users will be able to delete those forwards 
using vpopmail frontend.

I've tried to put .qmail-abuse in /var/log/qmail/alias - it didn't 
worked for me.
I've also searched the archive of this list and google, but I was not 
able to find anything usefull nothi found...

Any ideas or/and references?

Alternativley, do a ./configure --help.  If I remember.. it's just
--disable-authdaemon and --enable-vchkpw, but I'm not positive on that so
check the install docs and try a ./configure --help for all the switches.

 Read the man page for 'ldconfig'.
 
 You'll want to run it with -m, otherwise you'll throw away all of your other

It's working perfectlly now. Thank you both for helping me out. 




[vchkpw] some bug vopmail/qmailadmin with plaintext enabled

2003-02-07 Thread martynas sklizmantas
hello,
maybe it was reported earlier, then sorry for your time ;)
if we use vpopmail with plaintext passwords enabled and some user
changes his password to string which contains ':' symbol - qmailadmin
doesn't list users after that account.

vpopmail version: 5.2.1
qmailadmin version: 1.0.6

[vchkpw] Why hide ~vpopmail/lib ?

2003-02-07 Thread Ajai Khattri

Why does the default install of vpopmail remove access to ~vpopmail/lib?

$ ls -l ~vpopmail

total 24
drwxr-xr-x3 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 Feb  3 14:38 bin
drwxr-xr-x5 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 Feb  3 14:38 doc
drwx--5 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 Feb  4 01:31 domains
drwxr-xr-x3 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 Feb  7 11:40 etc
drwxr-xr-x3 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 Feb  3 14:38 include
drwx--3 root root 4096 Feb  3 14:38 lib


Since courier-imap insists on being built as a normal user, it fails to 
link in the vpopmail library... either you force it to make as root or 
you chmod 755 ~vpopmail/lib.

RE: [vchkpw] Why hide ~vpopmail/lib ?

2003-02-07 Thread Tren Blackburn
It's a security concern.  If you compiled it with MySQL support, you can
run strings against the file and get the username and password you used
for the MySQL connection.  Just run the courier-imap configure with
--disable-root-check

Also, these questions have been answered in the past.  The mailing list
is a great source of information.

Tren
