QMail Authentication problems
Okay, I have been searching everwhere for my problem and all the posts I find, don't seem to fix it. This is what I have done.
Installed Qmail (followed Life With Qmail) Daemon Tools CheckPassword ucspi-tcp vpopmail I created a user with vpopmail and works perfect. I can email the user, shows up in their box. When I use my test user to download mail via any email client program I get: -ERR authorization failed The other thing thats a bit wierd is when I run the test on the server itself by doing: /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup mail.domain.com /bin/checkpassword pwd +OK <...@blah> user root +OK pass password IT WORKS but when doing a user I created: +OK <...@blah> user mikee +OK pass pass -ERR authorization failed IT FAILS How come root can get authentication, and not a user? I cannot get the mikee@domain.com to work AT ALL. What am I missing here .. been working on this for hours and can't get the thing to download mail. Any suggestions or fix would be greatly appreciated! :cry: |
I also ran this script >> http://lifewithqmail.org/inst_check . Here are my results.
root@cipher:/var/qmail# ./instcheck Congratulations, your LWQ installation looks good! root@cipher:/var/qmail# So my install is working perfect, any ideas whats going on? My guess is 'checkpassword' is not working AT ALL. Thanks. |
I got up. I missed one simple config in the vpopmail install instructions. And this fixed it.
env - PATH="/var/qmail/bin:/usr/local/bin" \ tcpserver -H -R 0 pop-3 \ /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup your.domain.com \ ./home-dir-of-vpopmail/bin/vchkpw /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir & Thanks! |
Now I'm having a differnet problem. Now that I can get
authenicated .. thats great. Now I send an e-mail to email@domain.com from a domain not on this server. In the logs I get 400000003f3034f11186a02c tcpserver: status: 0/20 @400000003f303580338212c4 tcpserver: status: 0/20 @400000003f3035c40f65eec4 tcpserver: status: 1/20 @400000003f3035c40f68f04c tcpserver: pid 549 from 65.89.x.x @400000003f3035c42ce4ce34 tcpserver: deny 549 hostname.doman.com:192.168.10.1:25 :65.89.x.x::42340 @400000003f3035c42ceb987c tcpserver: end 549 status 25600 @400000003f3035c42cebb7bc tcpserver: status: 0/20 It instantly denies the server trying to connect to it. This was working at one time, where the email box was able to pull down some mail .. now .. i cant even email the box! Also, I cannot send from the server via Outlook Express ... wont let it go. Any ideas would be greatly apprecaited. |
