Hi there,
I am setting up a Murder (cool technologie, btw) and I have a problem
I can't seem to solve by myself. Any help would be very appreciated !
Basically, ctl_mboxlist try to authenticate as root on the MUPDATE
master server. Here is the revelant part of my /etc/cyrus.conf :
---
START {
recover cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r"
mupdatepush cmd="ctl_mboxlist -m"
}
---
My mupdate master server authenticate thru saslauthd with LDAP.
/etc/imapd.conf on mupdate master server :
---
configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /tmp
admins: cyrus
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
---
When the master server start on the backend, the following appear in
/var/log/auth.log :
---
Mar 6 09:46:41 ldap1 saslauthd[1852]: Entry not found or more than one entries found
(uid=root).
Mar 6 09:46:41 ldap1 saslauthd[1852]: AUTHFAIL: user=root service=mupdate realm=
Mar 6 09:46:41 ldap1 mupdate[2022]: Password verification failed
---
This make me believe that ctl_mboxlist is being executed as root (at
least, try to authenticate as root). I could not fing a switch in the
man page to have it authenticate as some specific user (in my case,
cyrus). Two (inelegant) solution I tried that did not work where to
make ctl_mboxlist suid cyrus and executing ctl_mboxlist as cyrus with
sudo in /etc/cyrus.conf. Is there s switch to ctl_mboxlist that tell it
ot authenticate to the mupdate server as a specific user ? I am
starting the Cyrus master process as root; could this be the problem ?
Thank you very much for your insight !
