Re: [qmailtoaster] Password size limit

2006-10-25 Thread Quinn Comendant
This sucks. Have you posted this bug to the vpopmail (vchkpw@inter7.com) or 
qmailadmin mailing list?

I wonder if it is as simple as changing the database specification in mysql.h 
to have larger password fields?

 If you user is already created and you try to change the password to
 something longer, it says it changes it, but it really doesn't.  I have
 played with this multiple ways and never found a warning as to why this
 was happening.  I check the database and verified that there is a 16
 char limit on the clear password which causes all the scripts to do
 weird things. 
 
 Not sure what needs to be done, but either proper warnings need to be
 inserted into the scripts, or the database needs to increase the field
 size, or possibly both.

Not yet; I'm not convinced this is a bug.  This may actually be a
side-effect of having imported this domain from another, older version
of the Qmail Toaster.  I'll have to find out.

No I haven't b/c I am not sure if it is a qmailadmin problem, I
believe it is just a qmailtoaster problem since the database field size
is only 16 char, and not a varchar or something else.
