RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
All you need to do is add the pw_name and the pw_domain fields into the vpopmail table ane leave the other options blank. The users home dir will be created when they pop in or receive some email. Shane -Original Message- From: Werner Schalk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, 26 August 2003 5:47 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords Hi, I am using the latest release of vpopmail and I can't find a documentation on this learn passwords option. How must I use it? I mean I have compiled vpopmail including --enable-learn-passwords but how must I add a new user that his or her password will be "learned" when he or she logs in? Bye and thanks, Werner.
Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
Hi, where do I find this table if I am not using mysql? Could you provide an example? Bye and thanks, Werner.
RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
Im not too sure about if or how this works without using mysql. Maybe Tom or one of the others can shed some more light on this one.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
It does not work with the cdb module. Here is what I tested vpopmail 5.3.21 configured for cdb 1) vadddomain test.com test 2) vi vpasswd add a line for a test account, including postmaster it is: postmaster:$1$RBVsu$EAxcmcNxWptVo46fkmrKc/:1:0:Postmaster:/home/vpopmail/domains /test.com/postmaster:5000:test kbo::1:0:kbo::5000:test 3) echo "to: [EMAIL PROTECTED]" | /var/qmail/bin/qmail-inject qmail log shows the following: @40003f4b81c304f468e4 info msg 2376106: bytes 205 from <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> qp 14701 uid 0 @40003f4b81c30566222c starting delivery 2: msg 2376106 to local [EMAIL PROTECTED] @40003f4b81c3056629fc status: local 1/100 remote 0/400 @40003f4b81c30897a754 delivery 2: failure: Auto_re-creation_of_maildir_failed._vpopmail_(#5.9.9)/ @40003f4b81c30897b30c status: local 0/100 remote 0/400 @40003f4b81c309b29cd4 bounce msg 2376106 qp 14705 That is in vdelivermail.c I would check the values in the vpw structure (print them out). Probably vpw->pw_dir is neither NULL nor an empty string, so it doesn't create the maildir. This might be due to processing empty fields in the cdb module.

Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
Hi, ok maybe for the archives: # vadduser -n [EMAIL PROTECTED] So a user [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be created (as Tom said). Now when that user logs in, the passwords gets "learned". Bye and thanks, Werner.
RE: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords
Is it possible to remove a password on an existing user so that it gets "learnt" the next time the user logs in. Would come in handy when a user forgets their password, it would save them having to give out their pass to admin if they ever forget it. I know a lot of users who are paranoid about giving their passwords out to anyone. ps I apologies to Werner Schalk when I first sent this I forgot outlook doesn't grab the mailing list address when u hit reply. -Original Message- From: Werner Schalk [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, 27 August 2003 8:05 a.m. To: vpopmail list Subject: Re: [vchkpw] vpopmail and learn passwords Hi, ok maybe for the archives: # vadduser -n [EMAIL PROTECTED] So a user [EMAIL PROTECTED] will be created (as Tom said).

If '--enable-learn-passwords' was used at compile time this is possible. > I know a lot of users who are paranoid about giving their passwords > out to anyone. But obviously not paranoid enough to use non-plain-text authentication like APOP, which would make it impossible to learn the password *head shaking*. -- Ciao, Pit
