[vchkpw] How to ask for change the password
Hi all.. I need to know how to ask users to change the password automatically when a pre-determined period passed out. i.e. I would like to ask everybody to change the password once a month or something like this. Almost all my users uses MS Outlook as e-mail client. Best regards, Quique -- Enrique Luis SchamannGerente de Infra-estruturaSalutia - Tecnologia e SaúdeEd.

[vchkpw] phantom vpopmail alias domain
I have an alias domain that exists and appears to be working without the usual symbolic link for it being present in /var/vpopmail/domains. If I try to add that domain I get a message indicating the domain already exists. Sending email to that domain routes correctly to the domain that it is supposed to be an alias of. But the alias domain is invisible. Does vpopmail maintain the domain list somewhere else? I'm aware that vpopmail is just a layer on top of qmail, and I admit that I don't know enough about qmail to really understand the underpinnings, so apologies. I am using vpopmail-5.3.12. Thanks, Kurt Bigler
Re: [vchkpw] Working towards vpopmail 5.4 stable
a process to update all possible dot-qmail files would be VERY heavy and would be abused, besides you CAN easily rename a domain, without that hassle, it's just not as clean, change the name (NOT the path) in user/assign, and issue UPDATE vpopmail SET pw_domain='newname' WHERE pw_name='oldname'; you could then symlink domains/olddomain to domains/newdomain for ease of dir navigation. matt On Thu, 5 Jun 2003 10:28:02 +0200 "Raboo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > thats why it should exist, it's to much job to do it manually ;) > > - Original Message - > From: "Tom Collins" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "vpopmail list" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, June 05, 2003 7:02 AM > Subject: Re: [vchkpw] Working towards vpopmail 5.4 stable > > > > On Wednesday, June 4, 2003, at 03:48 PM, Raboo wrote: > > > rename domains. > > > If I use vdeldomain on a alias will it remove the domain or just > > > the alias > > > domain.

[vchkpw] Vpopmail/courier-imap with ldap
Hi there, I'm running vpopmail with a cdb backend and courier-imap with the authvchkpw module. I was wondering if many people are using the ldap backend. I was also wondering if it's possible to use ldap for certain domains, and cdb for others. The reason I'm asking is that I have a samba domain running for internal users, and right now their passwords are not synced with vpopmails. I would like to run ldap for our domain, and run cdb for domains that we host. Is this possible? If so, are there any docs that could get me started? Thanks

I tryed your advice. But there's perhaps no concept of ld.so.conf in BSD Please refer the following URL. http://www.my-opensource.org/lists/myoss/2002-04/msg00034.html I ask about OpenBSD3.2 user. "/var/run/ld.so.hints" file is binary file. man ldconfig LDCONFIG(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual LDCONFIG(8) NAME ldconfig - configure the shared library cache SYNOPSIS ldconfig [-RUmrsv] [directory ...] DESCRIPTION ldconfig is used to prepare a set of ``hints'' for use by the run-time linker ld.so to facilitate quick lookup of shared libraries available in multiple directories. It scans a set of built-in system directories and any directories specified on the command line (in the given order) look- ing for shared libraries and stores the results in the file /var/run/ld.so.hints to forestall the overhead that would otherwise re- sult from the directory search operations ld.so would have to perform to load the required shared libraries. The shared libraries so found will be automatically available for loading if needed by the program being prepared for execution. This obviates the need for storing search paths within the executable. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable can be used to override the use of directories (or the order thereof) from the cache or to specify addi- tional directories where shared libraries might be found. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a `:' separated list of directory paths which are searched by ld.so when it needs to load a shared library. It can be viewed as the run-time equivalent of the -L switch of ld. ldconfig is typically run as part of the boot sequence. The following options are recognized by ldconfig: -R Rescan the previously configured directories. This opens the hints file and fetches the directory list from the header. Any additional pathnames on the command line are also processed. -U Unconfigure directories specified on the command line or remove inaccessible directories from search path if no directories spec- ified. This option cannot be used with -m. -m Merge the result of the scan of the directories given as argu- ments into the existing hints file. The default action is to build the hints file afresh. This option cannot be used with -U. -r List the current contents of ld.so.hints on the standard output. The hints file will not be modified. -s Do not scan the built-in system directory (``/usr/lib'') for shared libraries. -v Switch on verbose mode. Security Special care must be taken when loading shared libraries into the address space of set-user-Id programs. Whenever such a program is run, ld.so will only load shared libraries from the ld.so.hints file. In particular, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not used to search for libraries. Thus, the role of ldconfig is dual. In addition to building a set of hints for quick lookup, it also serves to specify the trusted collection of directories from which shared objects can be safely loaded. It is presumed that the set of directories specified to ldconfig are under control of the sys- tem's administrator. ld.so further assists set-user-Id programs by eras- ing the LD_LIBRARY_PATH from the environment. FILES /var/run/ld.so.hints SEE ALSO ld(1), link(5) HISTORY A ldconfig utility first appeared in SunOS 4.0. It appeared in its cur- rent form in NetBSD 0.9a.

It's all about _where_ to step in and "why e.g. qmailadmin is not designed to support this kind of interception yet". Creating aliases manually and including spamassassin in the delivery chain ain't a problem, the only problem is keeping this persistent when modifying aliases with qmailadmin.

Re: [vchkpw] libmysqlclient.so.12.o error
Hello, Cream[DONut] Thank you very much for your advice. I tryed your advice. But there's perhaps no concept of ld.so.conf in BSD Please refer the following URL. http://www.my-opensource.org/lists/myoss/2002-04/msg00034.html I ask about OpenBSD3.2 user. "/var/run/ld.so.hints" file is binary file. man ldconfig LDCONFIG(8) OpenBSD System Manager's Manual LDCONFIG(8) NAME ldconfig - configure the shared library cache SYNOPSIS ldconfig [-RUmrsv] [directory ...] DESCRIPTION ldconfig is used to prepare a set of ``hints'' for use by the run-time linker ld.so to facilitate quick lookup of shared libraries available in multiple directories. It scans a set of built-in system directories and any directories specified on the command line (in the given order) look- ing for shared libraries and stores the results in the file /var/run/ld.so.hints to forestall the overhead that would otherwise re- sult from the directory search operations ld.so would have to perform to load the required shared libraries. The shared libraries so found will be automatically available for loading if needed by the program being prepared for execution. This obviates the need for storing search paths within the executable. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable can be used to override the use of directories (or the order thereof) from the cache or to specify addi- tional directories where shared libraries might be found. LD_LIBRARY_PATH is a `:' separated list of directory paths which are searched by ld.so when it needs to load a shared library. It can be viewed as the run-time equivalent of the -L switch of ld. ldconfig is typically run as part of the boot sequence. The following options are recognized by ldconfig: -R Rescan the previously configured directories. This opens the hints file and fetches the directory list from the header. Any additional pathnames on the command line are also processed. -U Unconfigure directories specified on the command line or remove inaccessible directories from search path if no directories spec- ified. This option cannot be used with -m. -m Merge the result of the scan of the directories given as argu- ments into the existing hints file. The default action is to build the hints file afresh. This option cannot be used with -U. -r List the current contents of ld.so.hints on the standard output. The hints file will not be modified. -s Do not scan the built-in system directory (``/usr/lib'') for shared libraries. -v Switch on verbose mode. Security Special care must be taken when loading shared libraries into the address space of set-user-Id programs. Whenever such a program is run, ld.so will only load shared libraries from the ld.so.hints file. In particular, the LD_LIBRARY_PATH is not used to search for libraries. Thus, the role of ldconfig is dual. In addition to building a set of hints for quick lookup, it also serves to specify the trusted collection of directories from which shared objects can be safely loaded. It is presumed that the set of directories specified to ldconfig are under control of the sys- tem's administrator. ld.so further assists set-user-Id programs by eras- ing the LD_LIBRARY_PATH from the environment. FILES /var/run/ld.so.hints SEE ALSO ld(1), link(5) HISTORY A ldconfig utility first appeared in SunOS 4.0. It appeared in its cur- rent form in NetBSD 0.9a.

[vchkpw] Shouldn't a POP3 server support APOP and SASL?
Hi, I try to give some short statements on that topic. qmail-popup supports APOP as its only secure authentication method, Courier's pop3d supports SASL like CRAM-MD5 but no APOP. If authenticating via vchkpw, CRAM-MD5 can't be used. As someone asked in the courier-imap mailinglist for APOP the answer was: "APOP is obsolete". That's true, but APOP is used by many. But there are many losy POP3 clients that support only APOP or CRAM-MD5 as secure authentication methods. AFAIK Eudora speaks CRAM-MD5 but no APOP, some versions of OE (maybe not all?) do the opposite. Please don't throw in POP3 over SSL as an alternative, as client support is even worse than with APOP or CRAM-MD5. Does someone have a pointer to a mail client comparison chart showing their support for secure authentication methods. As a company providing POP3 service I can not force our customers to change there favourite client. I think, a modern POP3 server SHOULD support both APOP and SASL. Is anybody out there (except Vladimir) who agrees? Many users patch qmail-smtpd to have SMTP_AUTH. Does nobody patch qmail-popup, to have CRAM-MD5? Don't you need it? I'm curently running qmail 1.03 and the outdated vpopmail 5.2.1 with the patches from Bill's site (shupp.org) provided by Vladimir. I have SMTP_AUTH and SMTP-after-POP3, I have APOP and CRAM-MD5 and it works fine. Before you say "then shut up and stay with it" (well, you are right), current vpopmail has some nice features and the promised version 5.4 is something I want to use. I don't want to offend anybody. I just have the need to read your opinion.

Re: [vchkpw] qmail-smtpd-chkusr Patch Problem
Tom, I suppose you're using the "regular" version, as you speak of setuid. You have to read carefully instructions at www.interazioni.it/qmail. These are the instructions for the regular version: "regular" qmail-smtpd-chkusr must be installed (by default in /var/qmail/bin) with setuid (user qmaild) and setgid (group qnofiles), and executed by tcpserver with -u vpopmail-user and -g vchkpw-group parameters. qmail-smtpd-chkusr starts running with the original qmail-smtpd uid and gid, switching to needed uid and gid only for vpopmail checks on user existance, turning back to the starting uid and gid. You have to set SUID (set-user-ID-on-execution) and SGID (set-group-ID-on-execution) bits on qmail-smtpd-chkusr: chown qmaild qmail-smtpd-chkusr chgrp qnofiles qmail-smtpd-chkusr chmod 6555 qmail-smtpd-chkusr and the result you see should be like (different size and date, of course): -r-sr-sr-x 1 qmaild qnofiles 57056 Feb 14 18:18 qmail-smtpd-chkusr Integrate qmail-smtpd-chkusr in your start files: As example, a real start command for qmail-smtpd-chkusr may be #!/bin/sh -e # # Using splogger to send the log through syslog. exec env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \ tcpserver -t 5 -v -p -x \ -u -g -l 0 smtp \ qmail-smtpd-chkusr splogger smtpd & where = vpopmail uid = vchkpw gid = your host.domain (!) = your tcp.permission.to.relay cdb NOTE: if you are using more system users for your domains, the execution uid (which I indicated as vpopmail) should be set to root.

Re: [vchkpw] Aliases not working with maildrop & spamassassin?
I thought I had solved this problem for a client of mine.
At the domain level, qmail seems to read .qmail- then .qmail-default file
for delivery instruction. So if your .qmail-test file says /user/Maildir
(default by qmailadmin), it'll completely bypass .qmail-default. Yes, your
.qmail-test should include like in .qmail-default, which
will invoke maildrop but spam tagging rule will be ignored because it can't find
you "test" alias in the database.
You can choose to fix it at the database schema level, which probably will
require a re-architecting the whole system. Fortunately, maildrop can be
scripted to manipulate the way mail is delivered. What I've done was added a
little code in the mailfilter file:
# Environment variables needed
import HOME
import EXT # user
import HOST # domain
ALIASTO=$1
if("$xALIAS" ne "x")
{
EXT=$ALIASTO
}
and my .qmail-test would say:
/path/to/maildrop /path/to/mailfilter user
so when maildrop is invoked, mailfilter checks to see if there's a command line
option passed to it. If there is, change the environment variable EXT and pass
it through spamd.
If you choose to do it at the user level, i.e. Maildir/.qmail, it might not work
(depending on your mailfilter) because it'll execute maildrop and then
delivermail, which would then reads .qmail-ext and .qmail-default, then
Maildir/.qmail and the cycle is repeated. Even if you can program your
mailfilter to break the cycle, CPU time is wasted in another qmail cycle.
Then again, my approach runs into problem when you have a .qmail- file
because of the loosely defined .qmail- system, but that's another topic.

Hi,
I have a real [EMAIL PROTECTED] which is tagged for spam checking. The .qmail-default contains
| /usr/local/bin/maildrop
which calls maildrop and in mailfilter, runs through spamd to check for spam then pass
it back to vdelivermail to deliver to the proper mailbox. Then I created a [EMAIL
PROTECTED], which is an alias to [EMAIL PROTECTED] A .qmail-test is created which
points to mydomain.com/user/Maildir. When an email
is sent to [EMAIL PROTECTED], qmail just dumps it directly into user's
mailbox,completely out of the spam checking task.
Shouldn't the .qmail-test file's content be the same as the .qmail-default file?
How do you enable alias to behave the same as the account that it's aliased to? Of
course I can use a forwarder to [EMAIL PROTECTED] instead, but I don't think this is
the best wayor?
Thanks in advance for your suggestions!
