sys: Fedora core3, manually compiled vpopmail 3.4.10, RPM Mysql 3.23.59?,
compiled courier imap 4.0.2, compiled qmail-1.03, patched
qmail-ej-cocktail-14.tar.gz, manually patched Tonix' chkuser 2.0.
I have installed vpopmail with roaming/SMTP-AUTH before, again using
Michael Bowe's webmail guide. SMTP-AUTH is failing authentication and I
cannot tell why.
I had created the qmail install with Tonix' chkuser patch and saved that
qmail-smtpd binary. Substituting between the original and the Tonix
patched qmail-smtpd binaries does not seem to change the behavior.
compiled vpopmail as:
./configure \
--enable-roaming-users \
--enable-logging=p \
--disable-passwd \
--enable-clear-passwd \
--disable-domain-quotas \
--enable-auth-module=mysql \
--disable-many-domains \
--enable-auth-logging \
--enable-sql-logging \
--enable-valias \
--disable-mysql-limits

mysql's vpopmail database table vlog contains:
| id | user | passwd | domain | logon
| remoteip | message
| timestamp | error |

| 1 | daver | <[EMAIL PROTECTED] | example.net |
[EMAIL PROTECTED] | MYIP | vchkpw-25: password fail (pass:
'<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>') [EMAIL PROTECTED]:MYIP | 1119024854 |

[EMAIL PROTECTED] | MYIP | vchkpw-25: password fail (pass:

3 |
THIS IMPLIES that some element of the hostname and a timestamp(?) are
being forwarded instead of the submitted password??????
I'm at a loss here, help appreciated!
BTW, all incoming SMTP delivery works to all accounts. All POP3 pickup
and authentication works too. Just SMTP-AUTH to send is broken.
