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.

What do your qmail control files look like? /var/qmail/control/virtualdomains /var/qmail/control/rcpthosts /var/qmail/users/assign I'm assuming they're correct, otherwise we'd probably get an error about that domain not being in qmail's allowed list of rcpthosts.

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.
