[vchkpw] R: [vchkpw] Enable-roaming-users tests

2003-12-25 Thread Andrea Riela
 After the POP connection, you should be able to send the email.

Ya, thanks, now it works fine.

Just one question: the best configuration of clearopensmtp and
--enable-relay-clear-minutes?
Could you send me an advice?
Now, if I've to check the system with the binary without roaming, I need to
clear the external-IP allowed: I could delete all entries on open-smtp file,
and use the command clearopensmtp to update the tcp.smtp.cdb, or what?

Thanks for all, Merry Xmas!!!
Regards
Andrea

Thank you very much, Tom

 When you enable-roaming-users, you're enabling a POP before SMTP 
 feature.  That means you need to authenticate via POP and 
 pick up email 
 before attempting to send.  With a properly configured system, you'll 
 be able to send from your IP address for 30 minutes after you 
 establish 
 a POP connection.

Ya, ok, that's clear.

 Keep in mind that if you're using courier-imap you need to 
 recompile it 
 after building vpopmail with enable-roaming-users since it links 
 directly to libvpopmail instead of calling vchkpw.

That's not clear. I use qmail for pop3, and I will use Courier only for pop3
with ssl.
Now I'm testing the enable-roaming-users only with qmail and vpopmail
(vchkpw).

The problem is: when I use --enable-roaming-users=no, I haven't
possibilities to send an email from no-LAN ip to no-LAN ip. And that's
right. But when I use --enable-roaming-users=yes, nothing, and I don't
undestand why.

My steps:
1- ./configure ... --enable-roaming-users=n  make  make install
That works fine

2- qmailctl stop
(rm /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw)
make clean
./configure ... --enable-roaming-users=y  make  make install
qmailctl cdb
/home/vpopmail/bin/clearopensmtp
qmailctl start
Send email from [EMAIL PROTECTED] (internal account) to other external
account via different connection (dialup) -- 553, not allowed rcphost

I've forgotten something?
Thanks
Andrea

This sounds like the domain is trying to be relayed into your lan
system, but it doesn't exist in the rcpthost/morercpthosts file.

Maybe you should check the mx records? Where is the rcpthost denied
message coming from, the server your relaying through or the remote
system? If its coming from your own server, then there is your 
problem.

I have to ask.  Why not use stunnel to create the SSL tunnel and just use
the standard qmail POP3 like you're doing for non-SSL?

My line to start this is:

env - PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin \
tcpserver -H -R -u 89 -g 89 0 pop3s \
stunnel -T pop3s -p /var/qmail/control/servercert.pem \
   -l /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup vengeance.tokimi.net \
   /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 

This uses a 3.x version of stunnel.  A version 4.x stunnel requires
something completely different.

But, to answer the issue with Courier pop3...

 The problem is: when I use --enable-roaming-users=no, I haven't
 possibilities to send an email from no-LAN ip to no-LAN ip. And that's
 right. But when I use --enable-roaming-users=yes, nothing, and I don't

 qmailctl start

 I've forgotten something?

If I've followed this conversation correctly...

Rather than removing /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw at the beginning of step
two, shouldn't you be renaming it to a different path so that you can use
it for use with plain POP3 (with should not authenticate IPs)?  Or am I
confused?

After rebuilding vpopmail with --enable-roaming-users=y in step 2, you
should then recompile Courier to ensure that it is linking against the new
(and proper) version of libvpopmail.a   Changing the vchkpw binary will
not affect Courier since, as Mr. Collins says, Courier links directly
against the library and does not ever deal with the vchkpw binary.

I hope this helps.
