Re: [vchkpw] Slightly OT: Sqwebmail Auth Probs?

[buffalo]

Everyone,

It turns out that turning off all authentication except the "vchkpw"  
method can be done at authdaemon start time by editing (for default
installs):

/usr/local/share/sqwebmail/authdaemonrc

even if many auth modules were built/compiled during the sqwebmail build 
process.

Many thanks to all who replied for sending me in the right direction...

Have you tried compiling sqwebmail with the following configure options :

  --without-authdaemon --with-authvchkpw

The only thing I can recommend is disableing the authdeamon
for sqwebmail during configuration.
