help for auth with ldap on solaris 8
hello, I compile vpopmail 4.10.6 on solaris 8 with ldap auth. but I install openldap in directory /data1/mail/ldap,and ldap's include in /data1/mail/ldap/include. Solaris 8 has own ldap.h in /usr/include/ldap.h. How can I use my own openldap include and ldap.h? new [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Re: large v. small site
Ken, I am thinking of doing the hash for the directories and one thought would be, In vauth_adddomain create 3 sub levels of hasing using the domain name. So if domain was prodigysolutions.com the directory would be /home/vpopmail/domains/pr/od/ig/prodigysolutions.com Now my question is, Does adduser and other utilities grab the directory from the assign file or does it assume /home/vpopmail/domains/%s,domain?

Mysql or cdb
Hi guys, Quick questions for all those that runs web hosting business, is it better running vpopmail with mysql or cdb support ? If using mysql, should I use large site setting or not ? I know with large site setting turn off, everything would in one table. Is that slow the pop process down ? Roy K "Unix is simple, but it takes a genius to understand the simplicity."
Problems with sqwebmail 2.0.0 and vpopmail 4.9.10
I've built sqwebmail 2.0.0 and vpopmail 4.9.10 on a Sparc 220, and I'm having some problems with authentication. Vpopmail has been setup to do authentication on a second box running MySQL. Sqwebmail was built with the following commands: ./configure --with-cachedir \ --enable-webpass=vpopmail \ --enable-cgibindir=/var/www/cgi-bin \ --enable-imagedir=/var/www/html/images \ --enable-imageurl=/images/ \ --with-fcgi \ --without-authpwd \ --without-authshadow \ --without-authpam \ --without-authuserdb \ --with-authvchkpw \ --without-authldap \ --without-authdaemon \ --enable-mimetypes=/etc/httpd/conf/mime.type make make install-strip make install-configure No errors were reported during the build, and the login screen comes up. Vpopmail was built with the following commands: ./configure --enable-roaming-users=y \ --enable-ip-alias-domains=y \ --enable-passwd=y \ --enable-mysql=y \ --enable-sqlincdir=/var/lib/mysql/include/mysql \ --enable-sqllibdir=/var/lib/mysql/lib/mysql make make install-strip Vpopmail is working, because I can telnet from an outside box on port 110, and authenticate as a either a user in a vpopmail domain or a local user, and get a list of messages. But I can't log in as a local user or a vpopmail user. I'm pretty sure I can't log in as a local user because of --without-authpw, --without-authshadow and --without-authpam, and that's ok, as this will be a userless mail server. But I have --with-authvchkpw and --enable-webpass=vpopmail, so why can't my vpopmail users log in? I'm sure it's something simple, but I can't find it reading the FAQ, Manuals, etc. TIA, Dave

ld os Uanble to find -lz
I am trying to compile vpopmail to use mysql. Whenever I use the --enable-mysql=y, I get an error when I run make which says ld was unable to locate -lz. Am I missing a package?

I've never seen a solution for this problem using the software you listed above. You might want to switch over from one machine to the other instead of trying to keep both machines up and running at the same time. Here is one migration plan you can use: 1) create all the accounts on the new machine 2) test the accounts 3) Switch over the IP address of the old mail server to the new mail server 4) Copy over the email from the old mail server to the new mail server. With this plan you have almost zero downtime (time to switch over IP's) The users old email will not be available untill the copy is completed. But they will be able to receive/send new emails.

Suggestions? If you are running an OS/Distro that handles rpm's. You can install: rpm -Uvh MySQL-client-3.23.37-1.i386.rpm rpm -Uvh MySQL-devel-3.23.37-1.i386.rpm I like to install the client rpm so I can run mysql from the command line to test things.

Vpopmail and Procmail
Hi - Does anyone use procmail with vpopmail? If so, does anyone use it domain wide rather than on a per user basis? I recently submitted a patch against the vpopmail tree that makes vpopmail more friendly towards using procmail in front of the vdelivermail executable ie having a .qmail-default containing "| preline procmail | vdelivermail.". More specifically it stopped it generating a bogus blank email with Delivered-to and Return-path headers when procmail has filtered the email off somewhere else (for instance quarantining it if it contains a virus). This allows the use of a procmail filter domain wide rather than having to implement the same script on a user by user basis (which works nicely but isnt what I want to do). Since the patch hasnt generated any response I was wondering if there is an easier way of solving this?

Compile vpopmail for mysql auth when vpop and mysql are on different machines.
Hello list, I have gone through the archives and while I did find lots of info that will surley help me during compilation, I didn't see the following issue addressed yet... I want to run mysql on a different server than my vpopmail server(s). Do I have to install/compile mysql on each of the vpopmail boxes first to be able to have the libs available during the vpopmail compile? I'd assume some level of compilation of mysql on the vpopmail boxes will HAVE to happen but I doubt that I need to do a full install of mysql... Suggestions? Thanks in advance! Chris Bunnell
POP3 proxy solution ?
Hi, We are a small ISP and currently having a mail server (InterMail) serving POP3/SMTP access to our subscribers. Let's say mail system A= serverA.domain.com.my and user e-mail address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] We planning to migate from this mail system to qmail. And we already setup FreeBSD+qmail+vpopmail+sqwebmail+qmailadmin to provide the same service POP3/SMTP Let's say mail system B = serverBdomain.com.my and user e-mail address like [EMAIL PROTECTED] For co-existant purpose (migration) , Is there a POP3 and SMTP proxy solution such that userA POP3 and SMTP access will still poiting to serverA and qmail user (userB) will poiting to serverB ? Note : Both server having the same e-mail domain name. Thanks,
