Good morning,
I find mysqlf in need of smtp auth for my users. I've looked at several bits online about it and I have a few questions for the list.
qmail-1.03 as per qmail Handbook qmail-maildir++.patch qmail-0.0.0.0.patch vpopmail-5.4.8 (MySQL auth) FreeBSD 5.2.1
cat /service/qmail-smtpd/run
QMAILDUID=`id -u qmaild`
NOFILESGID=`id -g qmaild`
MAXSMTPD=`head -1 /var/qmail/control/concurrencyincoming`
if [ -z "$QMAILDUID" -o -z "$NOFILESGID" -o -z "$MAXSMTPD" ]; then
echo QMAILDUID, NOFILESGID, or MAXSMTPD is unset in
echo $0
exit 1
fi
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 2000000 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -P -R -h -l 0 -x /var/qmail/control/tcp.smtp.cdb -c "$MAXSMTPD" \
-u "$QMAILDUID" -g "$NOFILESGID" 10.0.241.136 25 rblsmtpd \
-r bl.spamcop.net \
-r relays.ordb.org \
-t 20 \
/usr/local/bin/fixcrio /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd 2>&1
----------------------------------------------------------------
1) What is everyone else using?
2) Some examples/patches show that a hostname is required in the run file for auth "http://www.enderunix.org/documents/eng/smtp-auth/"; and some do not "http://www.fehcom.de/qmail/smtpauth.html#IMPLEMENTATION";. I would think this is not possible using vpopmail, as a hardcoded host would cause vchkpw to fail the lookup. Correct?
3) How does this effect users who do not supply auth info? Does qmail-smtpd fall back to using the RELAYCLIENT value from tcp.smtp.cdb?
It seems easy enough to implement, too easy, scares me I am missing something.
Thanks,
DAve
