[vchkpw] vpopmail(mysql) squirrelmail - user change passwd?
Hello List (again), I've got vpopmail with mysql authentication and courier-imap and squirrelmail (thanks Michael Bowe), and I'm wondering the best/most eloquent way of allowing users to change their own passwords. Is anybody doing this already? I've looked at the squirrelmail plugin for change-mysql-passwd (http://www.squirrelmail.org/plugin_view.php?id=25) but that, as far as I can tell, is expecting all the logins/passes to be in one table. mysql stores all the user/passes in seperate tables (one for each domain). My first thought would be somehow to replicate all the various domain table user/passes into one table... any thoughts? regards Jon _ On the move?

Re: [vchkpw] TR : [vchkpw] [MySQL] error
Perhaps the socket its trying is wrong? If you try # mysql -p # password pass mysql \s it should confirm where your mysql is listening.. its sometimes /tmp/mysql.sock -Message d'origine- De : Tanen [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Envoyé : mardi 11 novembre 2003 13:39 À : 'Gary' Objet : RE : [vchkpw] [MySQL] error Yes Mysql is running, i see the process on the ps ax All work fine, i think ...

[vchkpw] Resolution: Re: [vchkpw] libvpopmail + squirrelmail/courier-imap
Just for list completeness, upgrading from 5.2.1 to 5.3.29 cured my problem. Thanks all. Another link to Michael Bowes documentation: (which is updating behind me as I work down the steps!) http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/webmail-server.htm - Original Message - From: jon kutassy [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hello List, I've been following Michael Bowe's crib sheet on how to set up qmail+vpopmail+mysql+loads+loadsmore :-) Im running vpopmail 5.2.1 . You should not use vpopmail-5.2.1, it contains some nasty bugs that can cause unreliable operation of courier-imap (especially if you compiled courier with --with-authdaemon) You could either go for vpopmail-5.2.2, or vpopmail-5.3.28 Once you have upgraded your vpopmail, you will also need to go and rebuild your other add-on apps like qmailadmin and courier-imap, so that they can link against the updated vpopmail code.

[vchkpw] libvpopmail + squirrelmail/courier-imap
Hello List, I've been following Michael Bowe's crib sheet on how to set up qmail+vpopmail+mysql+loads+loadsmore I'm experiencing a problem with squirrelmail+courier-imap which the imap list suggested was down to libvpopmail.. The Problem: Squirrelmail works fine as long as I'm the only one using it. When more than one connection is made, the Squirrelmail drops everyone back to the login prompt and no valid user-passwd combinations work. Restarting courier-imap fixes this temporarily. The courier-imap list said this was down to libvpopmail and that a very latest version of this should cure it. Im running vpopmail 5.2.1 . Does the vpopmail list agree that this is the case, and how do I repair it if you do. Do I need to re-install the whole vpopmail, ( I was looking at 5.3.28) or can I just get this libvpopmail on its own? I can't see that it should be this because Im using the same version as Michael Bowe was in his write-up. Great write-up btw Michael.

I set mine to 512 each. why? squirrelmail connects normally on localhost, 127.0.0.1. which means a lot of concurrent connections to localhost. If you have a small value for those two variables, people will be locked out pretty quickly.

No, 512 doesnt make any difference, as soon as I open another browser and sign into a different account, the first one fails to the login screen.

[vchkpw] mysql gone away. Please help a noob.
I'd like to get vpopmail working with authenticating against mysql...

Re: [vchkpw] mysql gone away. Please help a noob.
Thanks for the replies. I've been following Michael Bowe's excellent documentation on setting this up. http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/webmail-server.htm (I hope he doesnt mind the link) I took the windoze approach and restarted mysql, and its all working fine!! Thanks everyone for your input!! did you configure for your mysql user/password in vmysql.h? if not, amend the entries and recompile. also, did you create the tables or check that they were created? did you allow mysql access from within mysql? did you 'flush priviledges' to make the privs stick in mysql?

Re: [vchkpw] configure --enable-mysql=y error : help a noob please?
Gents, Im still trying to set up vpopmail with mysql. I followed Michael's exellent instructions below, which (after a re-install of mysql) worked, but I broke php/phpmyadmin in the progress. Ive now got php back and working, but not vpopmail again! I think its a socket issue, I believe vpopmail is expecting a socket in /tmp/mysql.sock: My socket is here : mysqladmin Ver 8.40 Distrib 4.0.14, for pc-linux on i686 Server version 4.0.14-standard Protocol version10 Connection Localhost via UNIX socket UNIX socket /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock How can I get vpopmail to look in the right place? Regards Jon Im trying to set up vpopmail +mysql + qmail on redhat 9 I believe I've read the relevent docs, and searched the web : when i run ./configure --enable-mysql=y I get this error: configure: error: unable to find your inc dir, specify --enable-incdir Hello Maybe take a look at this guide I wrote : A QUICK GUIDE TO VPOPMAIL WITH MYSQL http://www.pipeline.com.au/staff/mbowe/isp/vpopmail-mysql.htm Michael. _ Use MSN Messenger to send music and pics to your friends http://www.msn.co.uk/messenger
