Re: [vchkpw] Re: SMTP Auth delay...can it be sped up ????
Actually I did...but then I found the problem. It was the user and group of the .pem files. It looks as though when my corn job ran update_tmprsadh, the script changes the user and group. That broke it, I updated the script to make the user vpopmail.vchkpw and it's all good. I tested it from about 5 different clients across 3 OS's and now it takes about 5 seconds. MUCH BETTER...thanks for sending me down the right path...

You should run "make tmprsadh" from qmail source directory and setup a cronjob that updates three files: /var/qmail/control/rsa512.pem /var/qmail/control/dh512.pem /var/qmail/control/dh1024.pem If you followed Bill Shupp's tutorial you could insert a cronjob like this: 01 01 * * * /var/qmail/bin/update_tmprsadh Best regards -- Adrian Pircalabu Public KeyID = 0xF902393A -- This message was scanned for spam and viruses by BitDefender.

Re: [vchkpw] Re: SMTP Auth delay...can it be sped up ????
Do you use smtp-tls and smtp-auth at the same time? If Yes, then there are at least TWO reason for slow smtp-session. The first, DNS-related can be reloved by tcpserver's parameters. The second, tls-related - by creating temproraly RSA key, that can be done by executing # make tmprsadh at qmail source with applied tls-patch directory... Quote: - when a 512 bit RSA key is provided in /var/qmail/control/rsa512.pem, this key will be used instead of (slow) on-the-fly generation by qmail-smtpd. Idem for 512 and 1024 DH params in control/dh512.pem and control/dh1024.pem. `make tmprsadh` does this. try it and see if that helps you --- Best Regards, Yuri Nosyrevmailto: nua at slavel dot ru
Re: [vchkpw] Re: SMTP Auth delay...can it be sped up ????
Ok fine...I did exactly as it states and it didn't make a difference. It takes from 20 to 40 seconds to send an email...that's horrible. If I disable TLS it's immediateI can see qmail-smtpd just sitting there while it's authenticating..the entire time. Should I use http://inoa.net/qmail-tls/ instead of Bill Shupp's patch vpopmail 15967 0.0 0.180 760 ?? I 10:35PM0:00.00 /var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /usr/bin/tru How many seconds does it take to send an email for others using this patch ?
