Re: [vchkpw] cram-md5 smtp auth failure.
Thanks for the answer qmail-smtpd is trying to run the checkpassword program, and can't. check the permissions on your checkpassword program (specified on your qmail-smtpd command line- if the example you sent is accurate, this will be /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw.) and here's the part a lot of people forget- also check the permissions of each directory which contains it. for example, if the program is /home/vpopmail/bin/ vchkpw, you need to make sure that /home, /home/vpopmail, and / home/vpopmail/bin all have AT LEAST x permission for group and other (i.e. chmod go+x /home /home/vpopmail /home/vpopmail/bin.) drwxrwsr-x 5 root staff 4096 2006-02-06 15:55 home drwxr-xr-x 8 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 2006-02-06 15:55 vpopmail drwxr-xr-x 2 vpopmail vchkpw 4096 2006-02-06 15:58 bin the next problem you're going to run into is that (according to the smtp run script you sent) qmail-smtpd is running as the userid qmaild, and in order for vchkpw to read the vpasswd.cdb files and do its job, it has to be run as either the vpopmail user, or as root.
