This is about authdaemon with sqwbmail - I'm posting this to the courier group because I've seen authdaemon appears to be used by other courier applications too - so I'm hoping for a broader group of people with authdaemon experience...
I'm using sqwebmail with vpopmail 5.2 (passwords in mysql through vchkpw) and authdaemon(.plain) on FreeBSD 4.2. Everything worked fine - at least I thought. I've noticed that after a while I just couldn't login anymore and I was pretty sure the password was right (even reset it with vpasswd ). So I started some debugging with authtest: customer /etc/rc.d# /usr/src/sqwebmail-3.3.3.20020418/authlib/authtest [EMAIL PROTECTED] <password> Authenticated: module authdaemon [...] works customer /etc/rc.d# /usr/src/sqwebmail-3.3.3.20020418/authlib/authtest [EMAIL PROTECTED] <password> Authenticated: module authdaemon [...] works customer /etc/rc.d# /usr/src/sqwebmail-3.3.3.20020418/authlib/authtest [EMAIL PROTECTED] <password> Authenticated: module authdaemon [...] works customer /etc/rc.d# /usr/src/sqwebmail-3.3.3.20020418/authlib/authtest [EMAIL PROTECTED] <passwort> Authentication FAILED! suddenly stops working restarting the daemon will make it work again - for a while - ... until I try [EMAIL PROTECTED] (works) then [EMAIL PROTECTED] (works) and back to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (fails). I've reduced the number of daemons to 1 (two daemons run weird enough even when set to 0) - so that doesn't appear to make a difference. I went back from the snapshot to the 3.3.3 stable release - same problem. I then kicked out authdaemon altogether configuring with --without-authdaemon and straight with --with-module=authvchkpw. That works fine. Obviously I can't use authtest to check but I can't reproduce the error on the web interface anymore... Very weird - has anyone ideas what this could be - I'm willing to do some more debugging. Should I even bother trying to get authdaemon running - will it make a big performance difference when intented for a larger usergroup?
