Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail with mysql authentication of installer specified database
I remember reading from the proftpd forum that a vpopmail+proftpd enthusiast was using his own defined mysql table to authenticate both vpopmail and proftpd users. Is it possible to do this without changing the source code? (I am not overly happy about changing source since the vpopmail installation will be updated with time). In proftpd.conf: (example on proftpd 1.2.9) SQLAuthenticate users SQLAuthTypesPlaintext SQLConnectInfo [EMAIL PROTECTED] dbuser dbpasswd SQLUserInfo domain_tld pw_name pw_clear_passwd NULL NULL pw_home NULL or SQLAuthenticate users SQLAuthTypesCrypt SQLConnectInfo [EMAIL PROTECTED] dbuser dbpasswd SQLUserInfo domain_tld pw_name pw_passwd NULL NULL pw_home NULL Solt

Hmmm. Since all the file locations are the same it is probably a rights
issue.
Make sure that .qmailadmin-hooks and make_dirs.sh are owned by the
correct user and group. In many cases that would be owner vpopmail and
group vchkpw.
Also, my http server is not running under user apache but as user
vpopmail. This was necessary in order to run the vmailadmin plugin in
the Squirrelmail webmail client. It may be the reason it runs easily on
my server.

Hi,
Here's my scripts. There is probably a better way to do this but it
works on our system.
.qmailadmin-hooks:

Hi,
qmailadmin has hooks that will allow you to send info to other places
when you add, delete or modify a user. Read the document
/var/src/qmailadmin-x/README.hooks for details.
Basically, it'll tell you to create a .qmailadmin-hooks file, what to
put in it and the various places you may want to place the file. Make
sure that .qmailadmin-hooks has the correct user and group ownership, too.
I use it to call a bash script. It could probably also call
/usr/lib/courier-imap/bin/maildirmake.
If you want my script file let me know.

[vchkpw] upgrade broke squirrelmail/imap
Hi All. I have searched the archives for this one, and all I found was others with the same problem, but no fixes. I have upgraded to vpopmail 5.4.0. I use mysql on the backend. Pop3 is working perfectly. MY problem is that when I created the /home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql file, I couldnt remember what password that I used for the mysql account for vpopmail. No big deal, I just reset the password. Viola, vpopmail is working fine. But now, squirrelmail via courrier-imap no longer works. It's my understanding that courier-imap uses vpopmail to check the password. I can find nowhere that lists mysql settings in courier-imap, so I assume it is letting vpopmail handle this. Here is the error I am getting: imapd: could not connect to mysql update server Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES) So clearly, it's a mysql username/password problem. Thing is, I cannot trace where the settings that I need to change are? Any help would be GREATLY appreciated!! -Aaron

Re: [vchkpw] upgrade broke squirrelmail/imap
Jeremy, that did the trick. Actually I was trying this last night, and I grabbed the 2.2 version of courier-imap, however the make kept failing with a unicode/big5.c error. I rolled back to my original 1.7 and it's up and running now. Note: I had to manually copy the authvchkpw file from the compile directory to the working directory, as the install script was missing it for some reason. Thanks again. I was beating my head against the wall at 2am last night :P -Aaron At 09:52 AM 3/5/2004 -0600, you wrote: On Fri, 2004-03-05 at 09:39, Aaron Hackney wrote: [snip I changed the mysql password after upgrading and broke courier-imap] So clearly, it's a mysql username/password problem.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail with mysql authentication of installer specified database
If an FTP server gives a user open access to their directory, couldn't you have a potential security problem? Since the .qmail file is processed by the vpopmail user, any program I add to my .qmail will run as vpopmail. As a user with ftp access to my .qmail file, I could create a .qmail file that emailed a copy of ~vpopmail/etc/vpopmail.mysql to myself. I'm sure we can think of even worse scenarios, but won't share them on the list (we don't need script kiddies picking up the idea and running with it). This is the main reason we've had to be careful with qmailadmin to make sure users can't create new program delivery lines when adding forwards. Unfortunately, we end up removing program delivery lines that weren't qmailadmin generated (like tmda (tdma?) stuff). -- Tom Collins - [EMAIL PROTECTED] QmailAdmin: http://qmailadmin.sf.net/ Vpopmail: http://vpopmail.sf.net/ Info on the Sniffter hand-held Network Tester: http://sniffter.com/
