[vchkpw] New user with problems!
Hello, My name is Kanzie and I am glad to be a new member to this list supporting a excellent tool. However I have run into problems getting it correctly configured and I do have spent my hours in all manuals and howtos I can find, not very many. The problem is still there and no matter what I try to think of or do it just wont go away. I am very new to Linux as a operative system which only contributes to the problem I guess ;-) To the facts, when I make a connection to port 110 the vchkpw-daemon greets me and everything seems fine, I enter USER $username get the OK, then enter $password and get Authentification failed as response. At first I thought it was something fishy with the crypt()-library but looking into the logs showed something else. The syslog says: Oct 7 18:03:02 morrison vpopmail[15408]: vchkpw: setgid 89 failed errno 1 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:127.0.0.1 The origin of the problem could be that I already had the GID 89 taken by some weird symba mailinglistmanager that I never installed. I did groupdel and userdel and then followed the instructions, but still... Thank in advance for any help I might get! BTW: The accounts is accurate Mandrake 8.2, paranoid-mode latest qmail with ezmlm and checkpasswd, though checkpasswd has been disabled for the use of vchkpw // Kanzie

Hi Kanzie , In order to authenticate on a virtual domain basis, you muse provide the username including the domain, as: USER [EMAIL PROTECTED] PASS * This is, because since you can have multiple domains using only one IP address the user must specify which domain does he belong. That should solve your problem. Have a nice Day !

Not quite, I was a bit sloppy writing my mail, ofcoarse I provide the correct domain according to your recommendation. This does not solve my problem unfortunally! Any more ideas? // Kanzie // Hello, My name is Kanzie and I am glad to be a new member to this list supporting a excellent tool.
