Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail smtp-auth struggles

Greetings again.

Among other things, my softlimit was set too low. I bumped 200 to 
300 and everything seemed to work fine. For other googlers I 
discovered what was the matter with a telnet session:

$ telnet cono.org
220 vps1.digitalfeet.org ESMTP
 EHLO

250-vps1.digitalfeet.org
250-AUTH LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN
250-AUTH=LOGIN CRAM-MD5 PLAIN
250-PIPELINING
250 8BITMIME
 AUTH LOGIN

334 VXNlcm5hbWU6

 username -- base 64 encoded

334 UGFzc3dvcmQ6

 password -- base 64 encoded

/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw:
error while loading shared libraries:
libc.so.6: failed to map segment from shared object:
Cannot allocate memory
535 authorization failed (#5.7.0)
Unfortunately only the 530 authorization failed message shows up in the 
client so one does need to telnet to see the actual problem. Also note 
that one doesn't actually need to base64 encode the username and 
password in order to generate this error, but ordinarily one would use 
the encoding to transmit the username and password.

This was discussed earlier in the list in a thread titled: Help!! with 
qmail+vpopmail PLEASE!!!. I should have read on suppressing my aversion 
to such nondescript subject lines--though I suppose my own isn't anymore 
helpful, now that I think about it.

Greetings all,

I have been fighting a problem with vpopmail  the smpt-auth patch for
several days now and feel a little lost and beaten down.
I use Netscape 7.1 to connect to my email account ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) and
use 'admin' as the username. I can retreive messages without difficulty.
When I attempt to reply, Netscape prompts me for a password. I supply
the same password I used to retreive email. After some churning, I am
presented with the password dialog again.
Hi,

I don't know if this applies to you but older Netscape clients required 
% instead of @ as the separator between username and domain name.

ie george%somedomain.com instead of [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Greetings all,

I have been fighting a problem with vpopmail  the smpt-auth patch for
several days now and feel a little lost and beaten down.

use 'admin' as the username. I can retreive messages without difficulty.

I have tried this using an SMTP username of 'admin' as well as of 
'[EMAIL PROTECTED]' and the results are identical.

I also tried using Outlook Express 6, and saw similar behavior.

My provider is not blocking the SMTP port--I use another SMPT server 
without difficulty.

I patched qmail 1.03 with the SMTP auth patch 0.31 from
http://members.elysium.pl/brush/qmail-smtpd-auth/.
I configured vpopmail like so:

./configure
   --enable-logging=p \
   --enable-ip-alias-domains=y  \
   --enable-clear-passwd=y  \
   --enable-mysql=y  \
   --enable-auth-logging=y \
   --enable-mysql-logging=y  \
   --enable-valias=y
(I have tried this with both vpopmail-5.2.1 and vpopmail-5.3.30)

I have used vipmap to associate cono.org with 65.125.228.113.

My supervise/qmail-smtp/run script is:

#!/bin/sh
SMTPDUID=`id -u vpopmail`
SMTPDGID=`id -g vpopmail`
exec /usr/local/bin/softlimit -m 200 \
/usr/local/bin/tcpserver -H -R -v -p -x /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb \
-u $SMTPDUID -g $SMTPDGID 0 smtp \
/var/qmail/bin/qmail-smtpd vps1.digitalfeet.org \
/home/vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /bin/true 21
/etc/tcp.smtp contains:

:allow
127.:allow,RELAYCLIENT=
65.125.228.113:allow,RELAYCLIENT=
The /etc/tcp.smtp.cdb is current.

The qmail-smtpd log doesn't mean much to me:

The vlog table in Mysql says:

vchkpw: login success [EMAIL PROTECTED]:207.191.210.111

I'd be grateful for any direction as to how to troubleshoot this problem 
further.

My goal is to install Courier-IMAP and to have my configuration work 
with it as well. I understand that Courier-IMAP needs to be patched to 
handle --enable-ip-alias-domains=y, but I suppose that is my next hurdle 
since I unable even to send messages at this point.

Thanks again,

John-Mason P. Shackelford
