virtual pop accounts can't pop after upgrading to imap200c
Last modified: 2005-10-31 17:00:50 EST
Description of Problem: After upgrading to imap2000c, virtual pop accounts can't login and get mail. They can receive mail (new mail shows up in /var/spool/vmail/username). Primary domain pop users can get mail through ipop3d. Client gets the following message: "-ERR Bad login" /var/log/messages reports: "Aug 3 10:35:57 mail1 ipop3d[19027]: Login failure user=info@vdomain.com host=[10.10.10.13]" There is not the corresponding PAM message, which indicates a bad username/password. /var/log/maillog reports nothing. /var/log/secure reports the ipop3d connection How Reproducible: Every time Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install RH 6.2 2. Add a virtual pop account 3. Upgrade to imap2000c 4. Attempt to pop mail for the virtual pop account. Actual Results: See description. Expected Results: Login and retrieve mail.

Um, I don't think this is the same problem...regular users can still get their mail through ipop3d, it's only the virtual pop accounts which are having problems. Also, the imap and pop entries in /etc/pam.d/ are there, contrary to what was reported in bug id #49604. If you still think it's the same problem, when can I expect to see the errata update?
This bug is caused by the missing pamauth stuff. The files were omitted from the errata accidentally. You can use the older files as they are the same. Errata will be out when it is ready. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 49604 ***
I have the 1.6.1 release installed, and the virtual pops still dont work. It appears not to check for the name of the user under the virtual server. There are two entrys in /etc/pam.d/pop #%PAM-1.0 auth required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so shadow nullok account required /lib/security/pam_pwdb.so [root@test pam.d]# all latest patches installed. (current rpms) [root@test /root]# rpm -q imap-2000c imap-2000c-1.6.1 [root@test /root]# rpm -q imap-devel-2000c imap-devel-2000c-1.6.1 Any suggestions? Virtual directorys exist in /vhome/virtualdomain/home/username I dont see where the password files for the virtual users is though? Thought they were supposed to be in /vhome/virtualdomain/etc ? After telneting to my same system using two different names it would appear that the pop3 demon does not reconize the name? see below bash# telnet test.longhofer.com pop-3 Trying 63.67.80.200... Connected to test.longhofer.com (63.67.80.200). Escape character is '^]'. +OK POP3 test.longhofer.com v2000.70rh server ready bye -ERR Unknown AUTHORIZATION state command ^] telnet> bye ?Invalid command telnet> quit Connection closed. bash# telnet sinistah.com pop-3 Trying 63.67.80.200... Connected to sinistah.com (63.67.80.200). Escape character is '^]'. +OK POP3 test.longhofer.com v2000.70rh server ready I have created the sinistah.com virtual mail listing and created pop only users in the sinistah.com relm. It appears that the pop3 demon can not differ. After reading around the web a bit, is it required to install vpop3d on RH 6.2 to make this work? Any suggestions? Rod Longhofer
