You might be able to strace an old binary (like vuserinfo) to find out 
what username and password it's using to access the database.
or he could just revoke the old access & grant new permissions to the 
database :)
(or test and see if its using mysql root login)

Yes, it would be in the old source.
Build the new vpopmail with --enable-auth-module=mysql, then edit 
~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql to use the correct username, password and 
database name.  You might be able to strace an old binary (like 
vuserinfo) to find out what username and password it's using to access 
the database.

Is the older version perhaps using MySQL?
Do you have a copy of the source for 5.3.16?  Can you look at config.h 
to determine how it was configured?  Also. config.status should have a 
line in it (search for "recheck") that lists all configuration options.

In older versions, vmysql.h contained the login information for MySQL.  
That's been moved to ~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql.  Also note that 
instead of --enable-mysql, you'd use --enable-auth-module=mysql.

[vchkpw] vpopmail 5.3.16 to 5.4.7

2004-10-13 Thread csere matyas
hello everyone!


im trying to upgrade our vpopmail to the newest version.
ive read the upgrading file in the source tree, it doesnt say anything i
need to be worried about.
but its not working =P

my problem is:
for example with the old setup i've made a domain, and added some users.
with the new binarys i can see the domain, but it sais there are 0 users in
it, which is just not true.
it seems to be searching for the vpasswd files in the domains directory,
which is pretty funny, becouse the older version isnt looking in there.

i'm pretty sure we use the cdb in the old version (i've didnt install it,
and its poorly documented too. how could i tell for sure?)

anyone could help me with this?


thanks in advance
wd
