Hello Raboo,

On Sunday, October 13, 2002 at 1:55:19 PM you wrote:

 why does for example  vadddomain and vdeldomain require /bin/ps ???

 So that it can HUP qmail?

 Isn't it better to make vpopmail leave a pid file instead then?

1.) vpopmail ain't a process running at your system.
2.) What PID file qmail leaves vadddomain and vdeldomain could rely
on?

 Cause when I chroot my qmail it doesn't have ps, nor does it have /proc

You qmail don't need the 'ps'. vadddomain and vdeldomain need the 'ps'
which both need not to be run form within chroot. If you _really need_
to run them both from within _same_ chroot() as qmail make qmail put
it's PID while starting up into a file, write a script or small
program called 'ps' that is accessible in chroot() of qmail and reads
the file (your) qmail creates.

Ain't that hard to do if you have special requirements on a special
system setup.

[vchkpw] question about directory permissions

2002-10-14 Thread David

Hi all,

Got what may be a silly question, but I have read the doccos etc, and
havent found a specific answer to this one.

The file permissions on the ~vpopmail directory structure all map out to
basically only the user vpopmail can access it (well and root of
course), now, to do some things involving getmail and maildrop I need to
be able to write to those directory structures without being able to set
the process owner as vpopmail, although I CAN set group to vchkpw -
actually need to write various files to the virtual users directories,
but same sort of deal, if the group cant list, it cant find...:).

I was wondering what the effect would be on vpopmail operations if list
rights were granted to the group (vchkpw) only to the domain tree, so
that an external proecss can get to some of the specific files inside
the users Maildir directory structures?

(I dont want to just do this and perhaps break a running server, so I
thought I would ask first)

Thanks for the time

Regards

David Cook





[vchkpw] Vpopbull problem

2002-10-14 Thread Edoardo Serra

Hi,
I'm using vpopmail 5.2.1 with mysql authentication, to add a user to a 
domain I simply add a record to the DB
and vpopmail will create the user directory as soon as they login or they 
receive a message.

If I use vpopbull to send a mail to every user of the domain, the users who 
have never logged in or
nevere received a mail won't receive the vpopbull mail, probably because 
the don't have yet their
own Maildir

Am I right or I have to look for the problem somewhere else ?

 Otherwise, Doug's heading down the right path. Write yourself a script
 that loops for each domain, and then each user within the domain, and
 go through and start counting up the bits. You'll likely have issues
 with depending on the maildirquota file so make sure that if that file
 doesn't exist, you fall back to a more expensive but accurate method
 like du.

 Is there an efficient way to do this if you _don't_ use quotas, ideally
 something other than 'du'?

Efficient is a relative term.  If you're asking if there's a way to do 
this that's nearly as efficient  as using file system quotas, then the 
answer is an easy no.  The reason quotas are so efficient is that the 
kernel is involved, keeping track of disk operations on a per user 
basis. It always has a real time idea of how much disk space is in 
use by a customer. There is no other highly efficient way of doing it.

The next best utility (based on my personal experience, the extensive 
reading I've done, and advise of peers) for such a task is du or ls, 
both if which suffer from varying degrees of inefficiency.  I haven't 
ever compared the speed of using du/ls to using perls File::* 
utilities. If using file system quota's isn't an option, experimenting 
with all three could be a fruitful endeavor, the results of which I'd 
find interesting.

Re: [vchkpw] Vpopbull problem

2002-10-14 Thread Ken Jones

I think vpopbull uses the vauth_getall() function.
This function should return an entry for every user
in the system. For cdb it uses the vpasswd.cdb file
for mysql it uses the entries in the tables. For each
user returned, it will use the directory entry for their
Maildir location. If the Maildir doesn't yet exist it won't
be able to write the file. vpopbull doesn't automatically
create Maildir directories for users that have not had
a directory assigned to them.

So if you create a welcome directory under your vpopmail

 Can anyone else reproduce this problem?
 What version of courier-imap are you using?

 The authlib/preauthvchkpw.c file is worth checking against
 the one on the inter7 page. Mysql Quits can be caused by
 a program not calling mysql_close before exiting. Which in
 of itself would not cause an authentication failure.

 It's worth double checking your courier-imap configuration
 file. The one that specifies max client connections.

 The vpopmail ChangeLog shows the change to the email
 parser function and also reports that it fixed all known problems.

 To really track down the problem, lots of debugging output is needed
 to isolate what is ocurring. Hopefully leading to a solution :)

[vchkpw] alias support via vpopmail in PHP

2002-10-14 Thread Mustafa Hashmi

Hi all,

We have moved to qmail / vpopmail completely and it's working very well for our needs. 
We run a control panel written (in-house) in php which used to take care of adding / 
deleting users before we had moved to vpopmail.

The new mail server however works in a jailed freebsd environment and does not offer 
direct access to commands, and in our limited environment, we don't want to offer 
qmailadmin to our clients.

I decided a good way to link our control panel to the new mail server using php's 
internal vpopmail functions would be via an xml gateway. One sends authenticated 
internal posts (via ssl) to the this gateway -- the gateway is running as vpopmail and 
carries out the requests. The response is sent back to our control panel as an xml 
document. This solves many issues and offers great flexibility. I finished 
implementing the code yesterday and it's all working well.

Enough with the background, on with the problem.

The valias function is not support by php as the functionality is left out of vpopmail 
itself (please correct me if I am wrong), and I the way around this, as far as I can 
figure out, is writing a .qmail-user file in the domains/domainname.com directory with 
the | vdelivermail line for the new email address.

As the (xml) server is running as vpopmail, this is hardly a problem to do -- however, 
I was curious if this would be the most sound method. What do you guys think? Am I 
overlooking something very obvious or is writing a file manually a good solution?

I appreciate your comments.

 actually see their results published! hint hint

I'm happy to setup a public repository on one of my machines in the
short-term until inter7 frees up some time.

I do not want to take over vpopmail development but I'm certainly able to
offer CVS+webcvs+nightlies right now and if we think it's a good idea then
lets go ahead and do that.  When the good guys at inter7 want to start up
development again then we'll just tar it up and move it back over there.

On the other hand, maybe they're working on some new super-secret ultra-cool
qmail add-on to replace all the tools we have now. (if anyone can, they can)

I am, though I'm curious about what problems you've discovered..

It would probably be useful, but I wouldn't want to create a seperate 
Vpopmail development branch from the current one.  Who knows what's been 
added and what hasn't?  Its probably better if a CVS is setup by Inter7 
themselves and initially populated based on their up-to-date code.

All our packages are under constant development.  If you want the latest
stable version, use version 5.3.8 from the development page
(inter7.com/devel).
It's planned to go stable.  A new development version will take it's
place with
new patches, bug fixes, etc.

Remember, our packages are GPL, and we are not paid for their
development, so
we cannot guarantee updates, or bug fixes in any scheduled manner. 
However, if
a particular problem you're having needs to be addressed, and is
important to
your business, please contact us.

The most annoying one being the qmail-extension not working.

Well from the post Vol just made it seems like they are developing and so
the need isn't even there.  I agree with what you say though, and if it ever
becomes an issue we can discuss it then.  It seems like inter7 is still
rockin' the code like usual so I'm (obviously) happy.

[vchkpw] Strange Problems with Relay Table in vpopmail/mysql

2002-10-14 Thread Jeff Butts

Hi list,

I've scoured the archives over and over again, and I simply can't find an
answer to my problem...

I've installed vpopmail with --enable-mysql=y and --enable-roaming-users=y,
among other option.  I've patched tcpserver with Matt Simerson's patch.  I'm
running tcpserver from my /var/qmail/supervise/qmail-stmpd/run script with
the -S option to have it use the MySQL database for looking up IP addresses
to allow relaying.  Here's the problem!

When I log into the POP server, there are absolutely NO changes made to the
relay table of the vpopmail database.  I'm at a complete loss here, as there
are absolutely no error messages given.  I know that vpopmail works fine
with the database for other functions, as I can add new users, and
authenticate to the POP server without any problems.  But...the relay table
never gets updated.

As a side note, the lastauth table doesn't reflect the IP address I'm
POPping in from...it just shows a blank field for users who have logged in,
and 0.0.0.0 for all other users.

Does anyone have any suggestions for where to start?

Thanks in advance!

Jeff Butts

which version are you running? I was faceing this problem with version 
5.2 as well. I'm currently running 5.3.6 witch works very well with 
smtpAuth and the roaming users option as well as with Matts tcpserver 
patch. I don't know how the recent version works, but I will give it a 
try within the next days.
