No, the system won't even build the configuration, so I don't even get as far as doing the make install. There are no other packages using authdaemon on the system - I installed it exclusively for use with Sqwebmail. I may end up having to go back to a pre 5.0 build of SQWebmail which has the authdaemon code already in the source package. I prefer IMP to, however, this is a dr server for an existing SQWebmail setup, and we don't do IMAP, and if we did, we would probably have to go down the courier-imap road, meaning the same issue with authdaemon, as it is the process which authenticates via Vpopmail, and tells the server where the mail is stored. Actually thinking on this I may try running a configure on the source of courier-imap tomorrow, to see if I get the same error, or wether it is a problem with the configure script in the SQWebmail package I downloaded (latest official release). I don't have to build it, after all. As I said, I am pritty confident the authdaemon is working. Thanks. Andrew.
