I am installing vchkpw + SMTP AUTH + qmail.  I have installed qmail with
this patch:
  qmail-smtpd-auth-0.31 from
http://members.elysium.pl/brush/qmail-smtpd-auth/
Here is my run tcpserver script for qmail-smtpd:
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 1000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -H -R -l $LOCAL -x \
/usr/local/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD -u \
$QMAILDUID -g vchkpw 192.168.5.50 25 \
/usr/local/bin/fixcrio \
/usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -r relays.ordb.org \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd ps1.prostream.net \
/usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 
   

ok
 

I cannot get any users to authenticate when sending email.  I then tried
taking out ps1.prostream.net after /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd and it
lets all users authenticate.  I am running SUSE 9.0 x86-64 with vpopmail
5.4.0
   

what's the value of $QMAILDUID in that script?
also, if you take out the hostname you're an open relay, because you're 
authenticating with /bin/true

Any ideas why its not working?
Thanks,

So use the patch from the vpopmail contrib directory WITHOUT the 
hostname in the run script for tcpserver?

Wont this make the server an open relay?

My apologies, the solution i provided *WILL* not work. Considering the
code still contains the hostname stuff.
What i suggest is you grab the patch from the vpopmail contrib
directory, it contains a copy that *will* work.

I do not have an open relay.  I am trying to setup SMTP Auth.  It is not 
working.. When users try to auth, it just keeps asking for username 
password over and over.  Never sends.

I have put in the patch as described in the contrib README and changed
it to be /bin/checkpassword instead of vchkpw and I still have the
same senario.
   

What does your data.cdb or smtp.cdb look like that gets created from a file?
Also, it should still be to vchkpw if you want to use vpopmail.
This is what your run file should look like:
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 1000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -H -R -l $LOCAL -x \
/usr/local/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb -c $MAXSMTPD -u \
$QMAILDUID -g vchkpw 192.168.5.50 25 \
/usr/local/bin/fixcrio \
/usr/local/bin/rblsmtpd -r relays.ordb.org \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /usr/local/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/true 
Also make sure $QMAILDUID $MAXSMTPD and $LOCAL are set properly.
I see that you have your /usr/local/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp.cdb, are you
sure that is no causing the open relay? Try pointing it to one that only
has:
:allow
in it, and see if you are still an open relay then.
