You'll need to modify the /var/qmail/users/assign file as well as the vpasswd files.devnull-Your solution of using vadduser in a script worksbecause it is properly updating the cdb file.vpopmail will use the cdb file if they are available,and if not, generate from the vpasswd file. It soundslike you edited vpasswd, and modified the cdb file (whichdefinately won't work, as the index will be off in thelength changes). If you just edit vpasswd, on the nextadd/delete user, it will undo your change, because it willread in the cdb file and write out vpasswd and vpasswd.cdb.The solution? rm ~vpopmail/domains/*/vpasswd.cdb. Modify~vpopmail/domains/*/vpasswd with the proper paths. Alsomodify ~vpopmail/domains/*/.qmail-default to properly pointto the new vdelivermail location, and make sure the maildirfor default delivery if not bounce-no-mailbox has the newpath. Also update ~vpopmail/domains/*/.qmail-* to havethe proper aliases (if you have them to maildirs from oldvpopmail versions) and point to the proper location for ezmlmand autorespond if that changed. Finally edit ~vpopmail/domains/*/*/.qmailto make sure the maildir delivery lines are all pointing tothe right location.I'm not sure how chkuser will mix into this (it may want thecdb files), so if the cdb files don't regenerate for you, justrun vmoduser on each postmaster user toggling a flag (then putit back), such as the no_imap flag. That should regenerate thecdb properly from vpasswd text file.-M

My assign file was correct :-| I think it was an encription problem with hash passwd so, i need to configure with --disable-md5-passwords.. but I don't wanto to do so... I prefer md5 password so I've done a little script... for line in `cat ~/vpasswd2` do userid=`echo $line|cut -f1 -d:` quota=`echo $line|cut -f7 -d:` passwd=`echo $line|cut -f8 -d:` if [ $passwd = ] then ./vadduser -n -q $quota [EMAIL PROTECTED] else ./vadduser -q $quota [EMAIL PROTECTED] $passwd fi done It was ok for me... and for all the ones that have the clear passwd in the last field :-)
