[vchkpw] Vpopmail and local users
Hi. I'm using Qmail with Vpopmail to manage some e-mail virtual domains and users with no problem. I need to manage the local users too, with the Maildir support. How I configure Vpopmail to use the local users too? Thank you very much! Bye.

ALTER TABLE `dir_control` CHANGE `pw_domain` `pw_domain` CHAR(96) NOT NULL; ALTER TABLE `ip_alias_map` CHANGE pw_domain pw_domain CHAR(96) NOT NULL; ... I read on a previous post that I actually need to change the 'domain' columns (instead of 'pw_domain') - however, I'm running into one problem. I compiled with --disable-many-domains and my domain tables do not have a 'pw_domain' nor a 'domain' column. What am I missing here? Any help is appreciated. If you were starting from scratch, I would recommend not using --disable-many-domains, as I believe it is more efficient to have a single table with all data, and don't really like the idea of vpopmail adding tables when domains are created or having to delete them when the domain is removed. Its probably too late for that now... Please try creating a domain with a long name, up around 80-90 characters long. Then try to add a user, delete that user then delete that domain. If it all works, you are in good shape and I'll change the note in INSTALL to say you don't have to do anything special if you are using --disable-many-domains. If you have problems, let me know what happens and I'll figure something out. I expect it will probably work. Rick
[vchkpw] shupp clamav hi cpu
Hello, I just wonder if someone had the same problem I had with 90.2 clamav on hi cpu also I had the problem that it same ERROR need a full path after clamav started. I found a patch for that and I have applied the shupp's patch to 90.3 and now the load is low. Just my 2 cents. Remo Mattei Network Security

How I configure Vpopmail to use the local users too? migrate the local users' mailboxes over to vpopmail. make sure you remove the domain name from the locals file- and if that leaves you with an empty locals file, make sure you still HAVE a locals file, even if it's zero bytes. otherwise, the code in qmail-send which reads the locals file will read the me file instead, and use that name as a local domain, and vpopmail won't work for that domain name. | John M.

Also, since only the first eight characters of a password matter on Solaris 10 (or any DES vs MD5), perhaps there should be a maximum limit of 8 when using --disable-md5-passwords. This way, users who think [EMAIL PROTECTED]:: is a secure password are enlightened. good idea. i just wrote a patch to do both items. sourceforge has it as #1797464, or you can also download it from my web site. http://qmail.jms1.net/vpopmail/#passlen my one concern is this- i would rather see the decision of 128 or 8 happen within vpopmail.h. my first thought was to just add an #ifdef around the #define MAX_PW_CLEAR_PASSWD line in vpopmail.h, but the MD5_PASSWORDS flag that i would use as a test, is defined within config.h, and i don't know if it would break anything to include config.h within vpopmail.h. i doubt it would affect anything within vpopmail, but how many other packages out there (qmailadmin, courier- authlib, etc.) use vpopmail.h as part of their compile process, and also have a config.h file in their source code? so what i did is added the #ifdef block at the top of vpopmail.c, after both vpopmail.h and config.h have been included. this works, and for now it's safe because vpopmail.c is the only file which actually uses MAX_PW_CLEAR_PASSWD. however, if some future version of vpopmail uses this value in a different source file, that source file would need the same #ifdef block at the top. finding a way to safely add that #ifdef to vpopmail.h itself would solve this potential problem. | John M.

Other than that, looks reasonable (and appropriate).
