OK, this is quite easy when you figure it out. This works for Mandriva 2006.0 anyway
In the specfile you need to change --without-shadow to --with-shadow and then rebuild the package and install it. Then in the /var/qmail/supervise/imap4/run (and imap4-ssl and pop3d-ssl) file you need to add /usr/lib/courier/authlib/authshadow to PASSPROG as so PASSPROG="/usr/lib/courier/authlib/authshadow \ /usr/lib/courier/authlib/authvchkpw" This enables both /etc/passwd and vpopmail's vchkpw authentication. In addition, the spec file is broken IRT using authpwd. The spec file has --without-authpw but it should be --without-authpwd so that if enabled, it'll work. Hopefully you can incorporate these changes into the next release. It would be nice to see the various authentication methods enabled or disabled during the build process. For example, authvchkpw would be enabled as default but you could also add --with authpwd on the command line. As far as I'm concerned, everything is now working fine in Mandriva 2006.0 apart from the graphics in the mrtg module, I'll get around to looking at that later. >From a sysadmin view, this proves a point: Leave a user with a problem long enough and they'll fix it themselves :) Regards Nigel -- www.myoldcontacts.com - Tell your friends to tell their friends www.sysadmininc.com - Consultancy, Service, Sales, Networking... www.british-expats.com - Connect with British Expats World Wide www.kxez.com/shows_britishinvasion.php - 9-11pm Sunday.
