Hi there,
I'm trying to install vqadmin so my wife can configure
the vhost email by a simple web interface. I seem to be haveing
problems with authentication through the .htpasswd file. I'm useing
redhat 7.3 with the latest version of vpopmail, redhats stock apache
server. Has anyone else had this problem, if so how did they overcome
this.
oh, ok, btw this is the steps I followed
tar zxf vqadmin.tar.gz
cd vqadmin
./configure
make
make install
cd /etc/httpd/conf/
vi httpd.conf
aded the following to my conf file
<Directory "/var/www/cgi-bin/vqadmin">
deny from all
Options ExecCGI
AllowOverride AuthConfig
Order deny,allow
</Directory>
cd /var/www/cgi-bin/vqadmin
vi vqadmin.acl
my vqadmin.acl file is as fllows
#
#
# Default group contains permissions for all users
# not listed under any groups
#
# If the default group is not defined, users not
# listed under any other groups will have no
# permissions.
#
# Examples follow...
#
default VI
#
# Access permissions:
#
# V View user information
# I View domain information
# M Modify user information
# U Modify domain information
# C Create user
# A Create domain
# D Delete user
# X Delete domain
#
# These features will still appear in the HTML templates
# if the user doesn't have access to them, however, they will
# get a permission denied error if they try to make use of
# them.
#
#
# An asterisk in the features field specifies that you
# want all users in this group to have access to
# all features.

vi .htaccess
changed my .htaccess file to point to the directory where I am going
to place my passwd file so it reads as follows
AuthType Basic
AuthUserFile /var/www/vqadmin.passwd
AuthName vQadmin
require valid-user
satisfy any
chown apache .htaccess
chmod 600 .htaccess
htpasswd -bc /var/www/vqadmin.passwd jmhowell <my password>
/etc/init.d/restart
If anyone can see something I missed or did wrong or anymore info I
should supply please let me know, I've reinstalled. Did a websearch
and am still dumbfouded. thnx
