hi,

i have installed qmail-ldap with clustering enabled. i've setup 
a 2-host cluster according to the manual, life with qmail-ldap. 
now my problem is, auth_imap and auth_pop can't authenticate the 
users. i tried telnetting to port 143 and 110 on both servers 
and this is what i have observed: if the mailHost of the user is 
equal to the server i'm tenetting to, the authentication 
succeeds, but if the mailHost of the user is not the server im 
telnetting to, it fails. imap seems to be silent, it disconnects 
if the authentication failed without saying anything. however, 
pop displays "mailHost unreachable" if the authentication fails. 
i dont have any problems concerning mail delivery. qmqpd works 
fine. it's just the authentication that fails.

here is my setup:

- i have only one ldap server that does the authentication.
- my rcpthosts and locals on BOTH cluster hosts contain the two 
FQDNs of my cluster hosts.

any idea?

thanks.
