[vchkpw] Slightly OT: Sqwebmail Auth Probs?

2003-01-14 Thread buffalo 
Greetings All,

Sorry if this is slightly OT, but has anyone running 

qmail/vpopmail/mysql/sqwebmail (on RH 7.3 in our case)

run into a problem with sqwebmail logins after multiple login/logouts?

We're seeing a situation where if a single user logs into and out of
sqwebmail more than about 4 times over a short period of time (say 5-10
minutes), the login screen will start rejecting known good login/passwd
combos with the error message invalid userid or password.

TIA for any and all pointers/suggestions,

--Duncan

The only thing I can recommend is disableing the authdeamon
for sqwebmail during configuration.

Have you tried compiling sqwebmail with the following configure options :

  --without-authdaemon --with-authvchkpw

Everyone,

It turns out that turning off all authentication except the vchkpw  
method can be done at authdaemon start time by editing (for default
installs):

/usr/local/share/sqwebmail/authdaemonrc

even if many auth modules were built/compiled during the sqwebmail build 
process.

Many thanks to all who replied for sending me in the right direction...
