Hi,
In my research before posting this question, I saw this same question
in numerous places, but I never saw a resolution!
I have qpopper 4.0.5 running from inetd on FBSD 4.11.
I start it thus: /usr/local/libexec/qpopper
When I connect from my Mac to check my mail, I see the following in /
var/log/messages:
Jun 19 19:45:18 moe qpopper[199]: charles at 192.168.254.3
(192.168.254.3): -ERR
[SYS/TMP] POP authentication DB not abailable (user charles): No such
file or directory (2)
Anyone have any ideas what's wrong?
I could be mistaken, but it looks like maybe it's looking for a
separate POP user authentication database separate from /etc/passwd.
I know that we do this to support APOP logins.
Do you have /usr/local/etc/qpopper/pop.auth.db ?
You may need to initialize it and then add your username to it.
man qpopauth
