[vchkpw] POP3 authentication doesnt work for virtual accounts
Hi peeps, Yesterday I managed to get imap authentication working for virtual accounts, but now I tried to connect through pop3, but I keep on getting authentication errors. I assume it is a similair problem as with imap auth. Can anybody tell me how to get this working? I'm sure that I can get it to work on my own, but the last time it took me 2 days before I figured it out and I assume that people here on this list have encountered similair problems before. Here is my pop3 run file: #!/bin/sh env - PATH=/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin \ exec softlimit -m 200tcpserver -u 89 -g 89 -v -H -R -l 0 0 110 \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup FQDM \ /server/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir Is this a good way to get it working? Any help is most welcomed as I need to get my server working asap. TIA -Patrick

It could however, also be two or 3 other things, including softlimit, but you didn't show us anything (logs, example telnet session, etc) that could help us otherwise. -Jeremy -- Jeremy Kitchen ++ Systems Administrator ++ Inter7 Internet Technologies, Inc.

Dont ask me why, it just does
