I have removed the /etc/cron.hourly/qmail file, but still no joy. I think I may have not explained myself very well. I imagine the /var/qmail/users/assign & /var/qmail/users/assign.passwd are for users login, I have not got as far as setting up users yet.
My problem is login to postmaster via http://localhost/cgi-bin/qmailadmin I use vadddomain mail.home.net and supply passwords. This seems to add an entry in /home/vpopmail/domains/mail.home.net/vpasswd and /home/vpopmail/domains/mail.home.net/vpasswd.cdb File /home/vpopmail/domains/mail.home.net/vpasswd has the following info (all one line): postmaster:$1$Z.eo2$4swEBV2JLCh8QS2s872K8.:1:0:Postmaster: /home/vpopmail/domains/mail.home.net/postmaster:NOQUOTA:password This login from the web interface is what is failing with Invalid Login Trev. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Ken Jones" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > To: "Trevor Henderson" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Sent: Thursday, October 17, 2002 11:02 PM > Subject: Re: [qmailadmin] Help - Invalid Login > > > That's it. the qmail cron file in hourly. > Notice how it does things with "assign" files? > That's what is mucking everything up. > > Remove this cron file and then every domain you > add after that will work fine.
