[vchkpw] Limits Table
HI List I have a question about the limits witch can be set up in a mysql table. So, i did the installation with the limits in a mysql Table called limits. Now, I'm hosting also other domains for my friends and I d'like to give them the administrativ account to set the quotas of a domain, set the max. email aresses or max. mailinglists. Vqadmin has this feauture but this one writes .qmail*(can the rest not remind) Config files in witch the Data are stored witch i need in the mysqltable. Qmailadmin, ist a verry nice tool, but not able to handle this, or are I'm false? I know, if the table is clear, qmailadmin makes troubles, but it isn't clear. Is there a other tool? The best is a webbased ...it's easyer to administrate for my non unix friends... Thanks a lot for your tipps Greetings Hannes Widmer

[vchkpw] change request
I have a minor change request for future releases: Could a flag be added to remove the permission/ownership fixing at the end, or at least add a prompt that allows one to opt-out? I recently reinstall 5.3.20 due to a weird permission issue and I have other files stored in /home/vpopmail/domains than just my vpopmail domains (it's an NFS mount, so a good place for joining logs, etc.). The file/directory ownership/permission changes hosed that stuff, which took me a while to then sort out.

Re: [vchkpw] create user with pre-defined gid
Hi, I am not using *nix adduser or useradd but using vpopmail's vadduser. As the gid can control vpopmail user's imap access, webmail access, etc. I want to created user with no imap or webmail access by default.

Re: [vchkpw] Big server
You would handle delivery from Server1 to Server2 making Server1 the primary MX record. Then from there, you will have the domains listed in smtproutes to hand of to Server2. Also, make sure your domains are listed in rcpthosts on Server1 or they will be rejected. - Original Message - From: Marcos Dutra [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, July 21, 2003 8:50 AM Subject: [vchkpw] Big server Hi people, I would like make a big server with qmail +vpopmail +mysql +procmail. I think in this structure: Server 1: Mx domain + smtp delivery +filters (Antispam, user filter(procmail) and antivirus) This server basically is the mail gateway of all domains, where is passed in the filters rules per domain and redirect all mails to server 2 Server 2: Pop3 accounts + mysql server Here is created all accounts. This schema is good for multiple domains? Another question is how do i do the message delivery the messages from server1 to server2? Thanks Marcos Dutra
Re: [vchkpw] qmail+vpopmail+openldap+qmailadmin in redhat7.3
lixiang, I'd encountered exactly the same problem(-ERR aack, child crashed) with vchkpw using LDAP as backend. I'd tried many different configurations and finally it seem like I can get around this problem. The solution is configure vpopmail with --enable-clear-passwd=n parameter. My configure statement looks like: ./configure --enable-ldap=y --enable-clear-passwd=n I have no idea how this fix the problem, but it's something with the authentication.

You can't do it with vadduser, but you can use vmoduser after creating the account to set the flags. It's not very efficient, but should fit your needs. -- Tom Collins [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://sniffter.com/ - info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester
[vchkpw] A new tools for vpopmail
There is been some talk about getting qmailadmin to run with PHP and other environments. The problem is, how to you get a web server that is running as nobody to run commands as vpopmail? The answer has been to set qmailadmin SETUID vpopmail. The problem with that is. What if you want to develop your own front-end in PHP for example? One answer is to introduce a new command in the base distribution of vpopmail which would run SETUID vpopmail which could then be called by whatever front-end you care to design. This means a tool like qmailadmin or at least of subset if it could be easily created in mod_perl or mod_php or whatever. Modules for many of the webmail solutions out there would popup in no time. Included is a mock man page for the new command to give you an idea of what I am talking about. Let me know what you all think. Gérald == NAME vadm - user level vpopmail admin tool SYNOPSIS vadm [options] command [command_args] DESCRIPTION vadm is a tools to provide non interactive user level commands for vpopmail. The binary is SETUID to vpopmail so any user on the system can use it. This greatly simplifies the creating of a web front-end for example. OPTIONS -b, --base64 The password is BASE64 encoded. This is especially useful when providing the password at the command line. -p PASS, --password=PASS Provide the authentication password for the execution of the command. Its better to use the VADM_PASS environment variable if possible. -u EMAIL_ADDRESS, --user=EMAIL_ADDRESS Provide the authentication user name for the execution of the command. You can also set this in the VADM_USER environment variable. COMMAND SUMMARY You must authenticate with a valid user/pass for any commands to be executed. Some commands will only execute if the user/pass has admin rights on the domain in question. info This will output a coma delimited line of info about the user trying to authenticate. If the supplied user/pass fails to authenticate then it exits with a 1. list_users [DOMAIN] [OFFSET] [MAX] If DOMAIN is not supplied then assume the domain of the authenticated user. OFFSET and MAX is to handle cases when the list of users is quite large. If the authenticated user has admin rights to the domain then this command will return a list of all users for that domain. The list output is one line per user with coma delimited info for every user. update USER SETTING USER is the email address of the account to be updated. SETTING is a coma delimited settings in a format similar to that returned by the info command. If USER is equal to the authenticated user then the command is accepted otherwise the authenticated user must have admin right to that domain. password USER [-b] [NEW_PASSWORD] USER if the email address of the account to be updated. -b here indicated if the new pass is BASE64 encoded If [NEW_PASSWORD] is not supplied then read the new password from the environment variable VADM_NEWPASS newacct USER [SETTING] The authenticated user must have admin rights on the domain to execute this command. rmacct [-f] USER This will remove an account and if the [-f] if supplied it will also delete all the users email. Some checking is done to make sure no forwards pointing to this account. setfallback DOMAIN EMAIL This will set the fallback address for the domain. list_forwards [DOMAIN] [OFFSET] [MAX] newfwd USER EMAIL rmfwd USER etc.. I am sure there are a few more commands that would be needed. ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES It is recommended that the credentials of the user be set with environment variable rather then at the commend line for security reasons. VADM_USER This variable specifies the email address of the user requesting the execution of the command. VADM_PASS This variable specifies the password user requesting the execution of the command. The password can be encoded in BASE64 if the -b is supplied. VADM_NEWPASS This variable hold the new password user requesting to change a password. The password can be encoded in BASE64 if the -b is supplied. DIAGNOSTICS Normally, exit status is 0 with output on STDOUT and 1 otherwise. BUGS This tool does not exist yet.
[vchkpw] Connecting to mysql
I can't find the config file to change the password to connect to mysql. And what/how do I have to do to reset it. Is there a link that describes all of the conf. types for vpopmail?
