Hi,
I can reproduce in the current testing (squeeze).
libpam-dotfile 0.7-4
dovecot-common 1:1.2.9-1
libpam0g 1.1.0-4
without the "fork" option in the (in this case) /etc/pam.d/smtp file,
dovecot will fail to authenticate.
/etc/pam.d/smtp:
auth sufficient pam_dotfile.so no_warn fork
auth required pam_deny.so
extract from /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf:
auth default {
passdb pam {
args = max_requests=1 %Ls
}
socket listen {
client {
path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth
mode = 0660
user = postfix
group = postfix
}
}
}
/usr/lib/dovecot/authtest -a /var/spool/postfix/private/auth -s smtp <user>
<password>
fails if the "fork" option is removed.
