Hey all. I guess I'm not understanding how sqwebmail authenticates. Here's what I'm running:
qmail with vpopmail for my pop user authentication with mysql support. pop3 is working perfectly. usernames/passwords are being stored in mysql in a clear text fashion. After installing sqwebmail with the following options: ./configure --with-module authvchkpw \ --enable-imageurl=/images \ --enable-cgibindir=/www/mail.xxxx.net/cgi-bin \ --enable-imagedir=/www/mail.xxxx.net/html/images \ --enable-mysql=y And I forced the authdaemon to startup using "plain" mode (the /usr/local/share/sqwebmail/libexec/authlib/ did not have an sql module). When i first fired this up, this looked ok. My existing accounts did get the .sqwebmail files generated in the respective maidirs and I could log in from sqwebmail just fine. The problem came when I created a new account with qmailadmin. The account created successfully. (read: proper entries were made in mySQL database and directories created.) However, the .sqwebmail files are not there and I fail authentication when trying to log in from sqwebmail. I know I am missing a step here. How do I keep my .sqwebmail files and mysql files in sync or better yet, how can I get the sqwebmail to read and authenticate against my existing username/pass table in mysql? Thanks!! -A
