Problems with VPOPMail 4.9.7
Hi everyone; Well, after hours of testing, I've determined this problem to be on the VPOPMail side. I am migrating from an AIX platform to Linux. I exported the data from the MySQL 3.22.32 on AIX with the command mysqldump -p vpopmail > vpopmail.dump. I then installed MySQL 3.22.32 on Linux 2.2.16 (RedHat 7) and imported the database with mysql vpopmail -p < vpopmail.dump. I then tar'ed up the /home/vpopmail/domains structure from the AIX box to the Linux box. This all seemed to go just fine. Now, the problem that I'm having is I wanted to test authentication. So, telnet localhost 110, enter the user%domain and password: [root@isis /root]# telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to loopback. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> USER test%test.com +OK PASS test -ERR authorization failed Connection closed by foreign host. Now, if I go into the ~vpopmail/bin directory and run vpasswd on test%test.com and change the password to test2 for example: [root@isis /root]# cd ~vpopmail/bin [root@isis bin]# ./vpasswd test%test.com Please enter password for test%test.com: test2 enter password again: test2 [root@isis bin]# telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to loopback. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> USER test%test.com +OK PASS test2 -ERR authorization failed Connection closed by foreign host. Now, I have gone into the MySQL console as I did the change of password and saw that it was indeed changing the password: mysql> select pw_passwd from test_com where pw_name="test"; +---+ | pw_passwd | +---+ | K5quUNHql83zk | +---+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) (This was with the test password. I then change it with the vpasswd command to test 2) mysql> select pw_passwd from test_com where pw_name="test"; +---+ | pw_passwd | +---+ | xflmRFjDlKQNQ | +---+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) So it is updating the password. And for the real annoyance, if I just add a new domain (blah.com in this case) I can authenticate just fine. [root@isis bin]# telnet localhost 110 Trying 127.0.0.1... Connected to loopback. Escape character is '^]'. +OK <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> USER blah%blah.com +OK PASS blah +OK LIST +OK . mysql> select pw_passwd from blah_com where pw_name="blah"; +---+ | pw_passwd | +---+ | F7gb4/VIQPuI. | +---+ 1 row in set (0.00 sec) I have no idea why this is happening. I guess I can delete and re-enter all of the domains on my server and re-enter every single user, but I'd prefer not to do that. Why can I not authenticate on the domains I imported? I apologise for the length of this post, but I wanted to make sure I included all information. Thanks in advance, Tren. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- - Tren Blackburn - Ownermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] = = End of Time Networks http://www.theendoftime.net - - (403) 269-2122 = =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Re: Problems with VPOPMail 4.9.7
Did you also move /var/qmail/control/ locals rcpthosts virtualdomains and /var/qmail/users/ assign ? If not, that is the problem. vpopmail uses those files.

Re: Problems with VPOPMail 4.9.7
Hi Ken; Thanks for the help, but no, this does not solve it either. It seems that there is no way to make this happen. In the end, it'll be easier for me to re-setup each domain and just refresh the /home/vpopmail/domains area from the old server before I offline it. I have verified the /var/qmail/users/assign file was setup properly, the /var/qmail/control files were all setup properly, the mysql vpopmail db was setup properly, the /home/vpopmail/domains area was setup properly. It won't work though. Strange. Also, perhaps changing the error message that the vdeldomain program so when it fails, it doesn't state "failed to add domain" when I'm implicitly attempting to delete a domain. Thanks again for everyones help, Tren. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- - Tren Blackburn - Ownermailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] = = End of Time Networks http://www.theendoftime.net - - (403) 269-2122 = =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- On Mon, 18 Dec 2000, Ken Jones wrote: > > Did you also move /var/qmail/control/ locals rcpthosts virtualdomains > and /var/qmail/users/ assign ? > > If not, that is the problem. > > vpopmail uses those files. > > Ken Jones > > [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: > > > > Hi everyone; > > > > Well, after hours of testing, I've determined this problem to be on the > > VPOPMail side.
