Re: [vchkpw] problem with authentication
Nope, I copied the folders containing both programs directly over...Would it be better to reinstall? I would want to avoid this because installing qmail took an extremely long time on my last attempt.

Re: [vchkpw] problem with authentication
Well that must be the problem, I have no way of checking if the old box and this one because the old /etc was wiped after the incident. Is there any way to recover this? - Original Message - From: "mike" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "shaklee39" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 4:06 PM Subject: Re: [vchkpw] problem with authentication > Hi > Did you check the user ids are the same betwenn you wiped box and the > freebsd box . > It is also not clear what type of authentication you were using . > > Thanks > - Original Message - > From: "shaklee39" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Tuesday, April 01, 2003 7:03 PM > Subject: [vchkpw] problem with authentication > > > > Hi, we recently had a problem on our server where someone accidently did a > > "rm -rf /" for a few seconds (yes it is true) and /etc along with many > other > > things were wiped out.

[vchkpw] problem with authentication
Hi, we recently had a problem on our server where someone accidently did a "rm -rf /" for a few seconds (yes it is true) and /etc along with many other things were wiped out. Thankfully the qmail and vpopmail directories were not changed. Our host installed a new drive with freebsd on it and I copied the qmail and vpopmail folders over to the new drive and tried to start it up. I did the regular checks such as disabling sendmail and moving the startup scripts. vdominfo reports all the domains have the correct number of users. When I start qmail there are no errors but authentication no longer works. The install is per LWQ directions. In the pop logs all I see is stuff like this: @40003e89b5440e764f04 tcpserver: end 445 status 256 @40003e89b5440e776c2c tcpserver: status: 0/20 @40003e89b583057164fc tcpserver: status: 1/20 @40003e89b5830578b02c tcpserver: pid 481 from 66.127.229.52 @40003e89b583057c59ac tcpserver: ok 481 0:66.213.105.32:110 :66.127.229.52:: 3257 but nothing more after a failed attempt at a pop login. I have no idea where to go from here as to how to debug this login problem any help is appreciated.
