yes.. mine were created on the fly too before changing to mysql. but my files are there and owned by vpopmail:vpopmail (i dont have vchkpw group). even the tmp files being created were owned by vpopmail.
since vpopmail has to be able to write a open-smtp open-smtp.lock and open-smtp.tmp. ill send this to the list, maybe someone there would know more about how the permissions need to be or how they get messed up.. -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 25 Aug 31 2002 inc_deps -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 67 Aug 31 2002 lib_deps -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 57 Aug 13 2002 open-smtp -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 0 Aug 13 2002 open-smtp.lock -rw-r--r-- 1 vpopmail vchkpw 121 Mar 8 2003 tcp.smtp -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 2254 Sep 30 13:22 tcp.smtp.cdb and actually as i look at this again, it looks as if i have not had an open-smtp.cdb made.. maybe never on this machine.. but it was setup that way before it came to this machine.. have you verified you have the plaintext 'infile' open-smtp and that vpopmail has access to read and write to it contents of mine: 216.88.21.7:allow,RELAYCLIENT="",RBLSMTPD="" 1029246966 this was auto put there too.. should just have to touch a file and chown it to vpopmail.. then when clients are authed their ip and timestamp goes into open-smtp. then vpopmail rebuilds the cdb database from open-smtp and i forget its final name. i think its just open-smtp.cdb and the files you are seeing being created is the tempfile.. which means either sourcefile or destinationfile are not present.. im betting on source file.. could ya send an ls -l of ~vpopmail/etc ? ----- Original Message ----- From: John Boynton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Brah Mon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, September 30, 2003 12:39 PM Subject: RE: [vchkpw] Romaing User problems > They are owned by root. > > Where does the ownership get set?
