You cannot because RBL checking happens before SMTP authentication as far as

Re: [vchkpw] Vusaged segmentation fault on long names

2009-09-02 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Thank you for the quick reply!


Is this in 5.5?  What are the steps to reproduce?  I added the domain as
you did above, and my vusaged binary from trunk is running as expected,
returning data for the long domain name.


No, this is in 5.4.28, not running 5.5 at the moment, I can reproduce by 
creating a long domainname and starting vusaged.


This would seem to indicate that the issue occurred somewhere in 
vpopmail's

vauth_getall call, or in MySQL itself.

Can you post your vusaged.conf, configure options for the main tree,
and configure options for the MySQL module?

[vchkpw] Vusaged segmentation fault on long names

2009-09-02 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Hi all,

I found a bug with long domain names which crashes with a segmentation fault 
when the vusaged is started. We have 1 client with a domainname of 57 
characters and although it is not the domain name listed below, it produces 
the same result. I believe vpopmail supports domainnames upto 63 characters? 
Or am I wrong?


Steps to reproduce:

/home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain -e postmaster 
12345678901234567890123456789012345678901234567890123456.nl test

/home/vpopmail/bin/vusaged

Returns a segmentation fault:

config: using /home/vpopmail/etc/vusaged.conf
socket: listening on /tmp/vusaged.sock
controller: stage one
Segmentation fault

Running through gdb results in:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

There is probably a more descriptive error message in the logfiles. What

Or if you have strace installed, you can run it with strace and see what 
comes up. It can usually give you an idea about what is wrong:


strace -f /var/vpopmail/bin/vadduser u...@domain password

It sounds to me it is either a permission error, or an error relating to the

[vchkpw] Vpopmail 5.4.28 - rc1 - notes

2009-08-02 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Hi Matt,

I have installed 5.4.28-rc1 on several production mail servers and noticed the 
following:
  a.. configure and make went like a charm on Debian Squeeze. The result after 
configure now also shows the correct version number 

  b.. Perhaps it would be preferable to have the vusaged file automatically 
copied to ~/vpopmail/bin/ instead of having to do it manually. The output of 
the normal configure shows: " cd vusaged && ./configure && make" for the 
vusagec to work, but that is not enough, in /vusaged/INSTALL are more steps. 
Could it be automated further? I have it working now on 2 mail servers without 
problems (so far), will let you know if I find anything else.

  c.. The 0 message count for totals in @domain when using vusagec has been 
corrected in rc1 (as you no doubt know), just confirming the fix here.
Furthermore, the segmentation fault on another server was caused by a domain 
name of 59 characters long. I am not sure whether the length was the problem or 
something else, but upon removing it it no longer segfaulted. First I upgraded 
my libmysqlclient libraries to rule that out as the cause (since the errorlog 
message indicated the problem would be there) and recompiled against 
libmysqlclient16, however this did not make a difference.

Finally I found the offending domain name by running vusaged through the 
debugger gdb after strace did not provide any meaningful output. It appears 
that the problem was not the domain in the strace output, but always the 'next' 
domain in the list. Which gdb showed in a full backtrace and strace did not. 
Anyway, just thought you'd like to know.

We have 5.4.28-rc1 on three production servers now. I will let you know how it 
goes.

Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt

Re: [vchkpw] Re: Testing

2009-08-01 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Wouter, thank you for allowing me to connect to your test environment 
remotely to determine what
was going on.  I've CC'd the vchkpw list so the members can see my 
findings.


No problem, thank you!


This was occurring because the most recent tarball for 5.4.28 does not
contain the updated code that handles message counts.  Originally the 
vusage
daemon only returned byte counts.  To fully support domain quotas it had 
to
support message counts as well.  This was added after the tarball was 
created.


I installed the trunk on your system and it's working.  If you're using 
5.4.28,
use the trunk version rather than a tarball so that you're using the 
latest version

when reporting bugs.


Alright, will do. I have installed 5.4.28-rc1 at the moment on our 
production servers and will let you know if anything comes up.



* Regarding the segmentation fault with vusaged, I cannot give / am
  not allowed to give remote access. However I have ruled out file
  system corruption and in the syslog I am getting: "Jul 30 08:45:19
  mail2 kernel: [ 4492.236858] vusaged[21583]: segfault at 72656b79
  ip b7dbb1d1 sp b2b10110 error 4 in
  libmysqlclient.so.15.0.0[b7d4c000+1a3000]". I have upgraded the
  server so it has libmysqlclient16 installed, but it still links
  against libmysqlclient15. How can I modify this to try if this
  solves the problem? I do not have this particular problem on other
  servers and it is an older server that suffered 100% hd full
  situations once or twice in the past, so it is possible the fault
  lies elsewhere.

* Regarding: the "deferral: Aack,_child_crashed._(#4.3.0)" message
  in /var/log/qmail/current. I believe it happens when a message is
  sent to a catch-all address (thus a non-existing mailbox), in
  which case vusagec returns manually: "No data available", which is
  seen as a crash. Could this possibly be the case? If so, perhaps
  the error message can be more descriptive? Anyway, this causes
  email to stay in the queue and not being delivered.


The client API does not treat *anything* from the vusage daemon as a 
failure
to avoid problems like this.  'Aack, child crashed' is a really 
non-descriptive

error message that means the child process segfaulted.

This to me means that vdelivermail is segfaulting.  It's hard for me to 
say why
without access to the system.  If it's happening within the client API, 
I'd be pretty

surprised, but it's certainly possible.


How can I run vdelivermail manually to test if it is crashing?

Is there any chance you can copy the existing domain to this test 
environment?  Maybe
copying the domain over to the test environment will duplicate the issue 
so I can

debug it.


I'm going to try to do that this weekend. What I noticed was though. If I 
remove the domain that is causing this beahavior the same happens to the 
'next' domain.

- Wouter van der Schagt

I would try using vdelivermail by hand, or the vusagec binary by hand, and

Using vusagec by hand returns the total number of messages and number of

Using vdelivermail by hand, results in: "vdelivermail: no EXT environment

Re: [vchkpw] 5.4.28 test remarks

2009-07-28 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Good morning,

The 5.5 branch is working in FHS compliance, and it's a bit complex 
because

so much of vpopmail has been built on /home/vpopmail.  Normally vpopmail
looks for an existing tcp.smtp file and then favors that over it's desired
/home/vpopmail/etc location.  Adding the FHS favoring in also caused some
pathing issues with the tcp.smtp file.  Just force it for now.  This will
be worked out as 5.5 becomes the devel version.


Allright, actually I remember you saying this before. I forgot. I used:
--enable-tcpserver-file=/etc/tcp.smtp for now.


Warning: Failed while attempting to delete domain from auth backend"

Please do because I can't remember what happened with this.


Allright, below is a snippet of the email from before: (it seems to
happen after a clean install, at which time, no logins have been
recorded yet, perhaps the table is not yet created?

---

I performed a strace on the command vdeldomain and found:

write(4, "1\0\0\0\3delete from lastauth where d"..., 53) = 53
read(4, "0\0\0\1\377z\4#42S02Table 'vpopmail.last"..., 16384) = 52
write(2, "Warning: Failed while attempting "..., 68Warning: Failed while
attempting to delete domain from auth backend
) = 68

Manual investigation showed that there is no table "lastauth" in the
vpopmail database. Should this have been created on install ? or is this
created when somebody logs in? The error doesn't appear to be fatal, but it
is ugly.

[vchkpw] 5.4.28 - vusaged - error - deferral: Aack,_child_crashed._(#4.3.0)

2009-07-27 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Good morning all,

I have installed Vpopmail 5.4.28 on a few production mail servers and noticed a 
problem. As long as vusaged is running, the following error message appears in 
/var/log/qmail/current: "deferral: Aack,_child_crashed._(#4.3.0)" which causes 
all local email to stay in the queue 'forever'. Shutting down the vusage daemon 
has the desired effect that email is being delivered. The message then becomes:

@40004a6d6b3c347e31bc delivery 951: success: 
client_connect:_connect_failed:_111/client_connect:_connect_failed:_111/client_connect:_connect_failed:_111/client_connect:_connect_failed:_111/did_0+0+1/

This message appears because it cannot connect to the vusage daemon of course. 
But the email is deliverd. Any idea why I get "child crashed" when trying to 
deliver local emails?

Many domains and mailboxes are iterated before this pops up in the strace log. 
If I delete this domain from the server, it will go to the next domain and 
display the same error message for another 'next' domain. I still have no idea 
what the error message could be. The message in the syslog would indicate a 
problem with the mysql client library, however the output from the strace would 
suggest there is another problem.

When looking at the respective mailbox, the ownership and permissions are all 
correct vpopmail:vchkpw and also the directory structure of the Maildir++ 
directory seems fine. /tmp is also writable .. any ideas? Does the vusage 
daemon have any debugging or logging options that I can enable on the command 
line?

[vchkpw] 5.4.28 test remarks

2009-07-23 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Hi all,

Below are some issues I encountered when configuring / making vpopmail 
5.4.28-devel. Most (if not all) are minor issues:

--- 1 ---

When using vpopmail 5.4.28-devel. I'm getting the following error message:

"configure: error: Unable to find your MySQL inc dir, specify --enable-incdir."

This message appeared when the development files for MySQL were not installed, 
but the directory existed. Installing the necessary files worked, but perhaps 
the message could be a little different because the option 'was' specified. 
Anyway, this is only a minor issue.

--- 2 ---

The status at the end of the configure, shows 5.4.27, even though it is 5.4.28, 
again - minor.

--- 3 ---

In 5.5 I noticed that the tcp.smtp file was moved to 
/home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp instead of /etc/tcp.smtp. Is this the new default 
behavior in 5.4.28 as well? This would probably mean that people will have to 
update their existing /var/qmail/bin/qmailctl file for the cdb command to 
reload the rules?

--- 4 ---

The previously reported error message: "Warning: Failed while attempting to 
delete domain from auth backend" also appears in 5.4.28 when adding and 
immediately deleting a domain. I believe the cause is also the same as in the 
5.4.25 and 5.5 branch. If I remember correctly a strace revealed a failing SQL 
query on a non existing table. I can look it up if necessary, just let me know.



What is the default behavior of the newly implemented domain quota's in 5.4.28? 
is it on or off by default, and if on, how can it be controlled?

Last question: Is there any major change that could break an existing 5.4.25 
installation? I'm considering to upgrade a production server to 5.4.28 status 
in order to test the usage daemon, the 2 GB per mailbox fix and possibly the 
domain quotas.

Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt

[vchkpw] Any 5.4.28 or 5.5 ETA?

2009-07-23 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Hi all,

I know it has been a while, but a few months ago, I commented on an error 
message when deleting a domain using vdeldomain in the 5.5 branch. The error 
message was:


"Warning: Failed while attempting to delete domain from auth backend".

I believe at that time, the cause of the message has been identified by mr. 
Brookings. Just to let you know. On a clean install of vpopmail 5.4.25. This 
message also appears. However only it seems because it hadn't been used yet 
(the server).


Is there an ETA on the release of the 5.4.28 or 5.5 branch? Most notably the 
5.5 branch. We are anxious to further experiment with it in more production 
environments. Is there anything we can help with?


Sincerely,

[vchkpw] Some vaddaliasdomain questions

2009-05-06 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Hi all, i have a few questions about domain-wide aliases.

1. I understand that vaddaliasdomain creates a domain wide alias, but am not 
sure what deletes them. As far as i understand valias is used for individual 
aliases. Do i use vdeldomain  to delete the alias domain? if 
not, what do i use?


2. What happens to the alias domains if the main domain is deleted with 
vdeldomain, are they also deleted or do they remain in the configuration ?


3. Am I correct in assuming that the aliased domain cannot be used for 
authentication? (MySQL backend?)

Re: [vchkpw] More vpopmail 5.5 notes / experiences

2009-04-28 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Regarding the FHS patch. Noted...i will ommit the prefix setting for now or 
consider to create a symbolic link for the time being.


---

This machine is not accessible to the outside world, it is an internal 
mailserver. But I think i may have found more useful information:


I performed a strace on the command vdeldomain and found:

write(4, "1\0\0\0\3delete from lastauth where d"..., 53) = 53
read(4, "0\0\0\1\377z\4#42S02Table 'vpopmail.last"..., 16384) = 52
write(2, "Warning: Failed while attempting "..., 68Warning: Failed while 
attempting to delete domain from auth backend

) = 68

Manual investigation showed that there is no table "lastauth" in the 
vpopmail database. Should this have been created on install ? or is this 
created when somebody logs in? The error doesn't appear to be fatal, but it 
is ugly.

I can test the setup on Ubuntu and FreeBSD as well if you like? Are you 
interested in testing results on other platforms or has it already been 
tested?

Re: [vchkpw] More vpopmail 5.5 notes / experiences

2009-04-28 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Are you working with the current SVN branch, or with a tarball from
Sourceforge?  I'm not certain all changes to the FHS-related code are
on Sourceforge.


I was using the tarball, am now testing with SVN revision 891. Further 
testing reveals that a default ./configure returns:


domains directory = /home/vpopmail/domains
   conf directory = /home/vpopmail/etc
bin directory = /home/vpopmail/bin
lib directory = /home/vpopmail/lib
include directory = /home/vpopmail/include

As expected, however adding "--prefix=/home/vpopmail" messes this up and 
makes it (im guessing unintentionally)


domains directory = /home/vpopmail/var/vpopmail
   conf directory = /home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail
bin directory = /home/vpopmail/bin
lib directory = /home/vpopmail/lib
include directory = /home/vpopmail/include/vpopmail

I think herein lies the source of both the strange location of vusaged.conf 
and the odd /domains directory. I realize the prefix i added was the 
default, but still.




As for the error message from the SQL backend: I'm still getting that:

"Warning: Failed while attempting to delete domain from auth backend".

5.0.51a-24 (Debian)

[vchkpw] More vpopmail 5.5 notes / experiences

2009-04-28 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Good morning,

Consider a vpopmail 5.5 install using timestamp build 1239053335:

- I noticed that domains are now created in /home/vpopmail/var/vpopmail as 
opposed to /home/vpopmail/domains. Is this intended as a change in 5.5 or is 
it incorrect, perhaps also part of the FHS patch? Or can i specify the 
/home/vpopmail/domains somewhere as a confiugre option? It is a bit 
difficult to test on production servers if we have live data in 
/home/vpopmail/domains unless we all move the data to a different directory, 
but that would not be preferable.


- vadddomain correctly adds a domain in the database and creates files / 
directories in the above mentioned parent directory, vdeldomain correctly 
deletes it from the database (and the files / directories), however it also 
throws an error message: "Warning: Failed while attempting to delete domain 
from auth backend".


- vlist is new to me, is this automatically packaged in 5.5 now?

- vdelivermail (feautre request). At the moment we are running a modified 
version and have disabled 90% full checks in vdelivermail.c (around line 
1139 by simply exiting the function). We do our own quota check, which with 
the use of the vusaged will become a lot faster. Perhaps you can include an 
option to disable this automatic mailing?


Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail 5.5 experiences during configure and install

2009-04-27 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Don't set a domain quota and it won't enforce one.  Just an FYI.


Great thanks. That could be usefull :) Is it off (as in not enforced) by
default or do i need to specify a setting.


The issue will be resolved with a linker flag which I accidentally did not
re-implement when re-writing parts of the build system.


Alright, no biggie then

I'll need an error, or some sort of other info other than 'did not work' 
:)
Please let me know any issues you come across.  5.5 will become the 
development

version soon.


Upon further investigation it appears that allthough the vadddomain command
didnt create an error, it didnt create an entry in any database either. I 
tested the
authentication as it is in /etc/vpopmail/vpopmail.mysql manually and that 
worked.

mysql -uuser -ppassword -Ddatabase;

Woops!  Must be some issue with the FHS compliance pathing.  I'll look 
into it.


For now, do i copy the files into /etc/ or leave them where they are?

I have it running on several large production servers.  If there's 
anything that
should be stable, it should be that daemon.  Several months of development 
and testing

went into that code.


Great, im really curious about this daemon, at the moment we provide this 
with
a realtime du -sm * through a socketserver, it is horribly slow on full 
mailboxes :)

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail 5.5 experiences during configure and install

2009-04-24 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Thank you for your quick reply,


..er, it's --enable-domainquotas not --enable-domain-quotas


Yes, and they didnt work in versions 5.4.25 or below, all relevant code as i 
remember now was commented out so any configure options didnt have any 
effect. My badignore the question.


As for the reason of turning it off...at the moment we only work with 
mailbox limits. and we dont want mailboxes to limit eachother because some 
clients have a client per mailbox. So that wouldn't be fair to their other 
clients.


---

/sbin/ldconfig solved the shared object error message. Is this going to 
change in future versions or is this manual command going to be part of the 
installation procedure?


After changing this, adding a domain (vadddomain) worked.. vdeldomain, 
however did not. Not sure why yet, will get back to you, im guessing however 
it is a misconfigured database user.


---


 # vi /home/vpopmail/etc/vusaged.conf
 # vi /home/vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf


As for this "missing" config file. Yes, I ran "make install". I now see they 
are both in /home/vpopmail/etc/vpopmail/ and not in /home/vpopmail/etc/ is 
this intended? or is this a typo in the INSTALL file or are they placed in 
the wrong directory ?


/etc/init.d/vusagd did start however, i am going to experiment with it and 
see how it performs.

As for the LSB (Linux Standard Base) tags..I think the implementation is 
relatively new. More information is here:

[vchkpw] vpopmail 5.5 experiences during configure and install

2009-04-24 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Good morning,

I'm trying out the 5.5 branch and configure / make it on some production 
servers. Below are my experiences.


-

1) A ./configure without any additional options gives no warnings, however 
when specifying --enable-roaming-users I get the following error messages 
when the relay file is in /etc/tcp.smtp and the .cdb counterpart.


configure: WARNING: Unable to find your tcpserver relay file.
configure: WARNING: Creating /home/vpopmail/etc/tcp.smtp

Has this behavior changed since vpopmail 5.4.25?

-

2) When configuring with   --enable-domain-quotas=n , the output at the end 
of the configure reveals quotes as turned on in the following line:


domain quotas = ON  --enable-domainquotas (default)

Is this intended behavior or is my previous option false?

-

3) After building vpopmail 5.5 and the mysql backend .. without errors 
(configure, make, make install). I get the following error message when 
executing :


/home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain domain.com test

/home/vpopmail/bin/vadddomain: error while loading shared libraries: 
libvpopmail.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Where did I go wrong in the installation procedure? According to the output 
of the configure command the libdir is at /home/vpopmail/lib of which the 
contents is:


drwxr-xr-x 2 vpopmail vchkpw   4096 2009-04-24 19:47 .
drwxr-xr-x 7 root root 4096 2009-04-24 19:37 ..
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root   144393 2009-04-24 19:45 libvpopmail.so
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root32316 2009-04-24 19:47 vmysql.so

-

4) The vusaged. I cannot get it installed / configured. The INSTALL says to 
edit the config files in step 3


 # vi /home/vpopmail/etc/vusaged.conf
 # vi /home/vpopmail/etc/vusagec.conf

But the second config file does not exist.

-

5) Continuing then to step 4 of vusagd install requires a chmod 755 
/etc/init.d/vusagd to permit execution. This is not in the INSTALL file, 
perhaps it can be added. It won't work without it.


-

6) The output of /sbin/chkconfig --add vusaged and /sbin/chkconfig vusaged 
on is (respectively)


insserv: warning: script 'K01vusaged' missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: warning: script 'vusaged' missing LSB tags and overrides

vusaged   0:off  1:off  2:on   3:on   4:on   5:on   6:off

and

insserv: warning: script 'K01vusaged' missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: warning: script 'vusaged' missing LSB tags and overrides
insserv: warning: script 'rc.vusaged' missing LSB tags and overrides

Some are not relevant of course, but some are. How about adding the LSB tags 
and overrides?


-

7) Trying to start /etc/init.d/vusaged start results in "failed". Starting 
it manually results in the same:


/home/vpopmail/bin/vusaged: error while loading shared libraries: 
libvpopmail.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


Eventhough the libdir according to the configure output seems to be correct.

-

Is this a known issue?

- Wouter van der Schagt

You are correct.  It can also return usage for a particular domain. 
Instead of

querying with 'u...@domain', query with '@domain'.


Great, does this return 1 value (i suppose so), or a comma delimited range
mailbox, storage used...or is this is easy to make and iterate ourselves..


Is that what you were looking for, or were you looking for something more
specific?


No, this would pretty much cover the functionality we need. Perhaps an 
option

for the delimited values as described above would be a nice addition. Other
than that it is great. Is 5.5 the first version in which this will become 
available?

Re: [vchkpw] 5.5.0 branch

2009-03-14 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Good day!

The idea of setting a flag with '-' and un-setting it with '+' is a little 
backwards.
The point of the 5.5 branch is to do away with these oddities.  Perhaps 
with long mode

strings like "+bounce -relay -etc" with a new command would work?


That would also work yes, for us, and i think for many others is that it can 
be modified by the command line so automation becomes easier. Whether it is 
+p, -p +popaccess -smtp, doesn't make a difference..at least not to us.


Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt

Re: [vchkpw] 5.5.0 branch

2009-03-14 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Hi Matt,

Anyway, if you have a moment, and can check out the 5.5 branch, see if it 
will configure

and make on your system.


It does (with default options) for configure and make. I'm on Debian 
2.6.26-1-amd64 (in a test environment). Any chance for the vmoduser options 
patch to be included in 5.5? if it is easy for us to reconfigure the mailbox 
settings on the command line we can start using the branch in a production 
environment.


By the way, i noticed that some installers (i forgot which ones) in Debian 
occasionally try to remove the vpopmail user at id 89 (same for the 
group)...is this still the recommended id or it doesn't matter?


Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt



Thanks!

Re: [vchkpw] how can I see all error messages about pop3 service ?

2009-02-05 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
my server's pop3 service sometimes doesn't accept my emailusers'password 
and it reasks user and password.

if I reboot the server, the problem is solved.


I had this problem before, it occured when there were more than 50 domains 
on a server and the morercpthosts files was used in combination with the 
SMTP authentication patch.



There's a patch available to that patch (or at least to patch 0.31 from that
patch) that addresses a bug when there's a failed SMTP AUTH attempt. If the
client attempts to send mail to a domain which is not listed in rcpthosts,
qmail-smtpd is unable to read morercpthosts.cdb. Instead, it sends "421
unable to read controls (#4.3.0)" and drops the connection. It seems, a
wrong file descriptor is closed when using the morercpthosts cdb file. For
more information: http://tomclegg.net/qmail/#qmail-smtpd-auth   (point 6),
the direct link to the patch file is:
http://tomclegg.net/qmail/qmail-smtpd-auth-close3.patch


I'm not sure this helps. We have since shifted to Dovecot.

Goodluck,

Not us, however current applications assume the format is in bytes (for

[vchkpw] valias questions

2009-01-07 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Good morning all,

First of all, happy new year!
Second, I have some questions about valias. I understand the syntax is:

valias -i  

1. Does the alias have to be a domain on the server and is checking to see 
if this is the case enforced? Or do i have to manually add it to the 
morercpthosts file as well?


2. If I want to add multiple aliases for the same destination do I issue the 
same command twice (or more) or can i add it in one command?


3. When adding an alias, does the popbox have to exist if it is a local 
domain?


4. How does valias work together with .qmail- files?

Sincerely,
- Wouter van der Schagt

Bergum, 27 mei 2008. Sinds vandaag continueert Xenosite B.V. de diensten 
van ServingYou. Deze laatstgenoemde heeft de afgelopen relatief vele 
hardware problemen meegemaakt waardoor de uptime in gevaar kwam.


Mede-eigenaar Kim Hoogenberg kon op korte termijn geen definitieve 
oplossing kunnen vinden voor het probleem en heeft besloten de 
activiteiten over te dragen. Hoogenberg: "De hoofdzaak was het on-line 
brengen van de diensten."


Technisch directeur Tudor Capatina van Xenosite heeft samen met zijn team 
op zondagochtend 26 mei de problemen verholpen en de websites draaien 
sinds 05:00. "Ruim 10 jaar zijn wij actief op de hostingmarkt en hebben in 
die tijd veel kennis en expertise opgedaan. De diensten continueren is 
voor ons kinderspel"  aldus Jacob Boskma, algemeen directeur van Xenosite.


Mochten klanten vragen hebben over de continuering van de diensten door 
Xenosite dan kan er gebeld worden met 0511 - 481670. Aangezien de hoogste 
prioriteit ligt op het technisch vlak (de websites en e-mailfaciliteiten 
in de lucht houden) zullen de klanten van ServingYou binnenkort op de 
hoogte worden gebracht.

Re: [vchkpw] migrating to new server

2008-06-11 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Hi.. you can use

vmoduser -b to bounce all incoming mail
vmoduser -s to disable all SMTP auth

Optionally you can set the quota to 0 which is a dirty solution, it will 
also

bounce all mail, perhaps the -b flag is better.. For a complete list, just
type /home/vpopmail/bin/vmoduser and the help that is printed will help
you out.

Hello,

i need move from old server to new one. Problem is while DNS are
replicated i need disable whole access to domain (delivering - smtp,
pop3, imap). I know that via vpopmail is possbile disable access to
imap/pop3. but is possible to disable smtp. In best case i need that
smtp returns some error and message will be delivered later (to new
mail server)

Thank you for help and advices.

Re: [vchkpw] Domain wide quotas

2008-06-10 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Thank you for your reply,

Actually i dont want domain quota's to work... its just that now if all
popboxes combined hit 50MB, users get messages. I dont want
that. I just want to use popbox quota's only, which are now set to
25 MB, but i dont want them influenced also by a domain wide
quota somehow. My relevant confiration options were:

--enable-domain-quotas=n(but i saw that this was commented
out in the source, so this wont have much effect anyway)

--enable-hard-quota=y

In the vlimits.default file everything that might be relavant is
commented out.

Domains were created without specifying -q NOQUOTA, perhaps
my error lies in there.

Domain quotas don't work anyway.
AFAIK, you need OS quotas to get that to work.
But that slows things down.
Ideally, you would have a database of domains and quotas where a 
provisioning system deducts the amounts of diskspace that are given to 
individual users.
Once the domain-quota is used up, it would not allow adding any more quota 
to any user in that domain.


AFAIK, most control-panels with qmail underneath use this way, more or 
less.

Do you have a program other than vdelivermail writing the message to your

the Maildir is responsible for updating maildirsize.

The qmail maildir++ patch is for qmail-local and qmail-pop3d.  If
qmail-local is not delivering directly to the Maildir and you aren't using

Re: [vchkpw] Enable / disable pop access

2008-04-22 Thread Wouter van der Schagt

Just for future reference for others.

I modified vmoduser.c. Basically you change the |= to ^=, of course this
is not the desired behaviour, but perhaps it can help others. Ideally
there are seperate flags (perhaps capitalized) that will turn the respective
flags on and off. If i've time i will look into this.

Line 84 and Line 110 was:
if ( GidFlag != 0 ) mypw->pw_gid |= GidFlag;
Change to:
if ( GidFlag != 0 ) mypw->pw_gid ^= GidFlag;

the flags now flip. it will set if unset and unset if set.

Unfortunately, no easy way.  Some time ago, the developers had  discussed

If you use chkuser patch (on for qmail/vpopmail), or Shupp's toaster 
which includes chkuser, you can force a server to accept only

[vchkpw] SMTP Authenticaton

2008-04-10 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
Dear all,

I have a question. We have a mailserver that only accepts incoming SMTP 
connections
from our anti-spam appliances. So far so good, this is done at the tcpserver 
level. So
default is :deny.

Our clients, however also need SMTP functionality so we've set up the same 
server
with SMTP Authentication, however that wont work, since by default all 
connections
other than those from the Barracuda are blocked. We experimented with pop before
smtp, but those results are not satisfactory either.

The reason we block by default is that sooner or later spammers connect to the
server directly rendering the anti-spam appliances completely useless. (or at 
the
very least ineffective)

An option for us to setup a different server that only handles smtp 
functionality for
our client, however the problem then is that a domain needs to exist on two 
servers.
one for the popbox and one for smtp authentication to work. Or is it possible 
for
the vpopmail to connect to the database on the other mailserver for 
authentication
or would that be too slow? Does anybody have any other suggestions perhaps?

If it becomes expensive, you can use the SQL patch and do it with SQL.  
There's no hit at all to adding or removing items in that case (may be 
some with SQL, but I haven't had any performance issues, and after all, 
checkuser + vpopmail would both be using SQL in the first place).

Another time i had this problem was when the database to be authenticated
against wasn't the localhost. If the network was clogged up (long ping
replies can check this), i would have such failures.

I don't use authdaemon, but I saw something on google in the
authdaemonrc file about not having enough authdaemon child processes
causing intermittent auth failures...something to check

I had this problem when my database was corrupt. You can check this
with

cd /var/lib/mysql/vpopmail
myisamchk *.MYI

if any is corrupt, just add -r

Re: [vchkpw] Re: POP not working.. am at a loss

2005-08-11 Thread Wouter van der Schagt
The problems was a compiled qmail-pop3d+vpopmail.c.diff patch

I found it by comparing the strace output of the test server and the
production server and noticing a systemcall to getpid which wasn't
happening on the production server.

I grepped for it in the sources of qmail and noticed a patch was
applied. I reversed the patch (in this case for pop3 traffic logging) 
and recompiled.

This time, everything is working as it should.

Thanks to all that helped isolating this problem

I noticed it also, it was a mistake, a changed the run file, and ran the
trace
the recordio log is:

I added a 0, making it 40mb for a softlimit, unfortunately it didn't make
a difference. Removing it completely also didnt make a difference.

I can execute other vpopmail commands, they wont return any error
message so i know the database connection is working properly.

Good afternoon, I have the following

When I do "telnet localhost 110" I get a prompt, 
but when I enter a correct
username / password combination, i 
get:
 
USER 
OK
PASS 
Connection closed by foreign host.
 
When I enter a false combination, I get an error 
message. I have enabled
verbose logging in vpopmail and get all 
authentication attempts and can
see they are succesful, so im assuming vpopmail is 
doing its job.
 
When I look at my /service/qmail-pop3d/run 
script:
#!/bin/shexec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 
400 \    /usr/local/bin/tcpserver -v -R -H -l 0 0 110 
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup \    
`hostname` /home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir 
2>&1
I'm guessing something is not passed correctly from 
vchkpw to qmail-pop3d
but i have no idea what. The output of "netstat -ap 
| grep pop3" is:
 
tcp    
0  0 
*:pop3  
*:* 
LISTEN 5455/tcpserver
 
which is, i think as it should be.
 
The relevant section of pstree is
 
 ├─svscanboot,1001 
/command/svscanboot  │   └─svscan,1004 /service  
│   ├─supervise,1006 qmail-send

Where i also didnt see anything wrong. I have 
checked permissions with my
production servers which are running the same 
installation and they all
appear the same.
 
Both hosts.deny and hosts.allow don't contain 
anythning
 
Any ideas what i can do to get my pop working 
?
