Re: [vchkpw] qmail+vpopmail+mysql+courier-imap+gentoo empty relaytable with roamingusers enabled
The main problem was gentoo does not install authvchpw in /usr/lib/courier-imap/authlib/ Once you manually install that file. Hacking up the init and conf scripts is a breeze. bob On Thu, 2003-02-27 at 09:57, bob ketterhagen wrote: After totally removing it and starting from scratch I was able to hack the init/conf scripts to work correctly.

RE: [vchkpw] qmail + vpopmail + mysql + Redhat 8
Tom, I believe I figured out what was causing the problem. In the virtual domains file there was a hidden ^M at the end of the domain. When I removed the ^M, everything worked just fine. Thanks for responding.

Would it be possible for you to alter the assign file to also include an entry for kelnet.net_ but point to the same information as the other entry in the assign file? Then see if it works... (this would test the rest of the vpopmail installation as it sits.) I am pretty sure it will because of the stray _ in there. I have to wonder where that is coming from. Seems like it might be a bug with the gcc compiler or the glibc itself... as I have heard there are some issues with that gcc compiler... I am not really sure... As I understand the process qmail-smtpd receives the mail and then hands it over to vckpw which mangles the user information into the EXT compatiable format [EMAIL PROTECTED] (which vdelievermail uses when the variables come from qmail-local/qmail-command). It might be possible that vckpw is suspect in RH8.0 when compiled with that version of gcc... I read that you tried the compiled binaries on RH8.0 but I think you are talking about qmail not vpopmail (which is where the issue probably resides). Good luck on getting it sorted... I could dig through the code, but I am having my own issues that I am trying to dig through the code to find right now... (post forth coming shortly). Let me know what you find out. I am always curious when something odd like this pops up.

RE: [vchkpw] qmail + vpopmail + mysql + Redhat 8
Keith, I have seen this problem one time in the past when I was setting up a Free BSD machine. I don't recall the specific details as to why it was doing this, just that is was. I think the problem is related to the configuration of qmail and specifically the assign file. Make sure that your assign file references the correct domain name and storage path... The storage path for the domian is highly important as it is where qmail looks for the .qmail-default that vdelivermail ends up running from... Hope that helps.

RE: [vchkpw] qmail + vpopmail + mysql + Redhat 8
Tom, Thanks for the info although I believe that everything is configured correctly. I did notice something interesting though. When I send mail to the 8.0 server and watch the log file for the starting delivery messages I see this: @40003e108cb13a39e81c new msg 196739 @40003e108cb13a39ff8c info msg 196739: bytes 57171 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] qp 13176 uid 502 @40003e108cb13ac7439c starting delivery 1: msg 196739 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] @40003e108cb13ac75b0c status: local 1/10 remote 0/20 @40003e108cb13b17b944 delivery 1: failure: Sorry,_no_mailbox_here_by_that_name._(#5.1.1)/ @40003e108cb13b17d884 status: local 0/10 remote 0/20 Notice where it says starting delivery 1: msg 196739 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] there is a _ attached to kelnet.net_.

RE: [vchkpw] qmail + vpopmail + mysql + Redhat 8
Keith, In an effort to troubleshoot this particular problem... Would it be possible for you to alter the assign file to also include an entry for kelnet.net_ but point to the same information as the other entry in the assign file? Then see if it works... (this would test the rest of the vpopmail installation as it sits.) I am pretty sure it will because of the stray _ in there. I have to wonder where that is coming from. Seems like it might be a bug with the gcc compiler or the glibc itself... as I have heard there are some issues with that gcc compiler... I am not really sure... As I understand the process qmail-smtpd receives the mail and then hands it over to vckpw which mangles the user information into the EXT compatiable format [EMAIL PROTECTED] (which vdelievermail uses when the variables come from qmail-local/qmail-command). It might be possible that vckpw is suspect in RH8.0 when compiled with that version of gcc... I read that you tried the compiled binaries on RH8.0 but I think you are talking about qmail not vpopmail (which is where the issue probably resides). Good luck on getting it sorted... I could dig through the code, but I am having my own issues that I am trying to dig through the code to find right now... (post forth coming shortly). Let me know what you find out. I am always curious when something odd like this pops up.

[vchkpw] qmail+vpopmail+mysql
Ok, I compiled vpopmail with mysql support. I want to store the open relay information in a mysql table. It looks like its saving all the ips into the table. So I compiled tcpserver with the mysql patch, made a /var/qmail/control/mysql file. Now how do I set tcpserver to use this file? Someone told me to just add -S and it should work. So now I have this in my qmail-smtpd startup file... #!/bin/sh QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild` NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild` MAXSMTPD=`cat /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming` LOCAL=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/me` if [ -z $QMAILDUID -o -z $NOFILESGID -o -z $MAXSMTPD -o -z $LOCAL ]; then echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, MAXSMTPD, or LOCAL is unset in echo /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-smtpd/run exit 1 fi exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 200 \ /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -l $LOCAL -S -c $MAXSMTPD \ -u $QMAILDUID -g $NOFILESGID 0 smtp /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 21 Am I doing this right? How can I test tcpserver to see if its reading the sql db? Thanks Nick
[vchkpw] Qmail + Vpopmail + Mysql assistance
I am fairly new to Vpopmail. I am having some trouble getting it to work with Mysql authentication. I'm using Redhat 7.2. Prior to attempting this, I had Qmail working properly using the following steps. I started the basic RC file out of /var/qmail/boot/home and set it to start when the computer starts. Then, I configured Xinetd to have a SMTP file that invoked Qmail when SMTP requests came in. The mail was then delivered into the users home directory in a Mailbox file. This worked fine. I have now installed Vpopmail with MySQL support. Everything seems to work fine as for MySQL and VPOPMAIL talking. The part that is causing the problem is actually getting the incoming mail to vpopmail. I'm not exactly sure how to accomplish this. Can I simply modify the SMTP file in Xinetd? I had to install tcpserver or whatever it is called in order to get vpopmail working. It's installed, but I don't have the slightest idea how to make it work. So, in short, I need to know what to modify in order to get the mail delivering properly. Do I modify or remove the xinetd entry? Do I make any changes to the /var/qmail/rc file? Do I do something to tcpserver to make it monitor requests and pass them off accordingly? Any assistance would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks,JM
