Hai all,
Sorry for reposting.I have played with ./configure many times still not
possible to authenticate with /etc/passwd.I am able to authenticate only
against the vpopmail user.
I tried first by putting all the authenticating modules as the option
like,
./configure --with-db=gdbm \
--with-db=db \
--with-authpwd \
--with-authshadow \
--with-authpam \
--with-authuserdb \
--with-authvchkpw \
--with-authldap \
--with-authdaemon \
--disable-utf7-folder-encoding \
--enable-unicode
It was also of no use as I was not able to authenticate against /etc/passwd.
But I was able to authenticate against vpopmail.
I tried even only enabling the authpwd,authshadow,authpam like,
./configure --with-db=gdbm \
--with-db=db \
--with-authpwd \
--with-authshadow \
--with-authpam \
--with-authdaemon \
--disable-utf7-folder-encoding \
--enable-unicode
Even after this I was able to authenticate against vpopmail users.
Finally I got irritated and tried this then also I was not able to
authenticate against /etc/passwd but still with vpopmail users.
./configure --with-db=gdbm \
--with-db=db \
--with-authpwd \
--with-authshadow \
--with-authpam \
--with-authdaemon \
--without-authvchkpw \
--without-authuserdb \
--without-authldap \
--disable-utf7-folder-encoding \
--enable-unicode
Am I missing something?
To be frank I do not know what my system uses I have /etc/passwd and
/etc/shadow.I think shadow passwd is implemented in my machine.No idea
about what this pam is(except its expansion ).I have RHL6.2 stock install
sorry for long mail.......
waiting for your inputs
with regards
