Hello OpenSMTPD Gurus, It’s been a very long time since I’ve had to do mail server work. However, I have been working on implementing opensmtpd and I am running into a weird issue.
I am using: 1. Oracle Linux 9.4 2. OpenSMTPD 7.5.0p0 from Oracle’s EPEL repo 3. Default user and group of smtpd:smtpd 4. Using sssd+AD and getent passwd username returns a valid entry. When I ask opensmtpd to perform a deliver to a Maildir lifted from the default configs I get an error message where the system can’t find my home directory and says it can’t stat it. I can get you a proper error in the AM. But if I run smtpd in the foreground as root the deliver takes place flawlessly. If I ask smtpd as the user in (3) above to deliver to a mbox it works fine. I see the systemd file has a set of read and write directories and am not sure if that has something to do with it or not. I have more questions that I will fire off in a different set of emails/threads. Thanks so so much. Cheers, ASD. --- [image: Edmonton-signature-RGB.jpg] Aly Dharshi B.Sc., RHCE Communications Design Specialist ETS Technical Services CITY OPERATIONS | TRANSIT Meeting Booking Link https://calendar.app.google/eTj5cU9rJFYUTqNM6 780-619-1585 MOBILE City of Edmonton DL MacDonald Transit Yards ROW Building 13304 50A Street Edmonton AB T5A 4P6 All information contained in this email post is proprietary to the City of Edmonton, confidential and intended only for the addressed recipient.
