Re: Auto create folders

2015-01-25 Thread John Mok
Hi Andy,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

> How do you create mailboxes now?

I used cyradm and createmailbox, e.g. createmailbox
user/username@DOMAIN, to create mailboxes.

Any idea how to create folder in cyradm? Simply createmailbox
user/username@DOMAIN/spam, and then set ACL permissions for
user/username@DOMAIN/spam ?

Please advise.

Thank you,  John Mok

Auto create folders

2015-01-22 Thread John Mok
Hi,

I have been using Cyrus IMAP 2.4.17 on Debian 7 with Kerberos / GSSAPI
authentication.

I would like to auto-create one or more folders upon mailbox creation,
e.g. a spam folder to store potential spam mails for spamassassin
learning.

On the other hand, how to prevent such folders from deletion by users?

Thanks a lot.

Re: Cyrus IMAP GSSAPI for multiple AD domains

Dear Dan,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

No. I ran the imtest on Linux client using the same principal as on the 
Windows client. On the Windows client, it was installed with Thuderbird 
2.0.0.24 and MIT Kerberos for Windows 3.2.2.

Thanks a lot.

Cyrus IMAP GSSAPI for multiple AD domains

2010-07-03 Thread John Mok
Hi,

I have successfully setup Cyrus IMAP 2.2.12 with GSSAPI / Kerberos  as 
authentication for an AD domain "grt.citizen.co.jp", which is the 
default domain in /etc/imapd.conf. However, when I tried to add another 
AD domain "pvd.citizen.co.jp" other the default domain. The AD users in 
the latter domain, i.e. "pvd.citizen.co.jp", failed to authenticate from 
the e-mail client (e.g. Thunderbird).

The error message on the server log :-

Jul  2 17:56:39 imapsv01 cyrus/imaps[3777]: GSSAPI Error: Miscellaneous 
failure (Wrong principal in request)

I checked with imtest and it passed successfully :-

 >imtest -m GSSAPI imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp

The IMAP config. /etc/imapd.conf follows :-


altnamespace: yes
sasl_mech_list: gssapi pam
loginrealms: pvd.citizen.co.jp
virtdomains: yes
defaultdomain: grt.citizen.co.jp
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd


I hope someone could advise how I could make the IMAP to authenticate 
users from two or more AD domains.

Thanks a lot.

Re: cyradm > lm returns empty list but mailboxes are accessible via

2009-10-30 Thread John Mok
Hi Dan,

I checked the /var/log/auth.log, and found the following error when 
cyradm>lm returned a empty list :-

Does it remind you how to solve the problem?

I googled the problem and the following message advised to patch the 
Cyrus SASL as follows :-

Is there anyone knows how to solve the problem?

Hi Dan,

Thank you for your prompt reply.

My /etc/imapd.conf follows :

admins: cyrus john
virtdoamins: yes
defaultdomain: grt.citizen.co.jp

Then, I authenticate with kerberos and login to cyradm console :-

 >kinit j...@grt.citizen.co.jp
 >cyradm --user john imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp imap
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lm
 << empty list >>
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>

I checked the server log and it read that I passed GSSAPI login.

The most interesting point is that cyradm seems get crashed after first 
failure :-

 >kinit j...@grt.citizen.co.jp
 >cyradm --user john imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp imap
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lm user/c*
 << a list of mailboxes starting with c* >>
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lam user/chkuk
 << show ACL of the mailbox chkuk >>
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lm
 << empty list >>
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lm user/c*
 << empty list >>
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>quit
 >cyradm --user john imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp imap
imapsv01.grt.citizen.co.jp>lm user/c*
     << a list of mailboxes starting with c* >>

Is it a bug in the cyrus-admin-2.2 package on Ubuntu 6.06.2 LTS?

Thanks a lot.
