Hey all, I tried to post this a couple days ago via the gmane NNTP interface, but it appears to be on the fritz. So, sorry if you get this twice.
Well, stil very much settling in to my new qmail environment. This sure is different from sendmail. As I mentioned previously - I am using qmail/vpopmail/etc from qmailtoaster.com. I just ran across a strange probelm I wanted to share with the list (especially Gre7g). I have vpopmail installed with a mysql backend, and I'm using the web-based qmailadmin and vqadmin to manage my users. Recently, I tried to make my account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) a "domain administrator", so I could use my vpopmail login to add users to my domain, etc, without having to use a seperate "postmaster" login. Making this account toggle via the web interface seemed to have only the effect of changing the value of "pw_gid" for the user's row in the database. All users have "pw_uid" and "pw_gid" of zero (completely virtual installation, so this makes sense), the gid was changed to 4098 (does not exist in /etc/group). As soon as I did this - the user's authentication into tmda-cgi started to fail. Manually going into the database and changing the value back to zero resovled the issue. This could be something particular to my setup (maybe vpopmail's idea of the proper admin GID is wrong?), I'm just not sure. For now I will just tell people to continue using their postmaster logins rather than aliasing postmaster over to their account.
