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
