Murder sample configs

2010-04-15 Thread Simon Beale
Hi I'm trying to set up a cyrus murder set of boxes on 2.3.16 to eventually replace our single creaking dovecot server, and am currently failing to get a working configuration. My current intention is to have switch-101 (frontend + murder master) switch-102 (frontend) store-101 (backend)

Backend attempting to proxy to itself?

2010-04-26 Thread Simon Beale
I'm having problems with getting the backend responding correctly in a murder cluster (using Simon Matter's 2.3.16 rpm built on CentOS 5.4). I've got it so that I can run cyradm and issue 'cm user.simon' on the frontend, see it make the mailbox on the backend, and doing 'ctl_mboxlist -d' on

I'm currently having an issue where clients (Outlook/Thunderbird etc) can't delete shared folders if the folder resides on a different backend to their INBOX. Looking at the IMAP traffic, the client is doing: . RENAME user.test.subfolder INBOX.Trash.subfolder . NO Permission denied If subfolder

I'm trying to plan a promote/demote of a backend and a replica, to effectively swap them over in 2.4.13 cluster. Given the hostnames are different, and we haven't got a magic dns record to update, the list of mailboxes on the master needs to be changed. My thinking of how to do this was to run
