failure.
Jul 13 23:15:56 xxxxx postfix/local[2553]: 2D75A5A02F0:
to=<us...@foo.com>, relay=local, delay=0, status=deferred (temporary
failure. Command output: ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed:
Permission denied /usr/local/bin/maildrop: Temporary authentication
failure. )
I tried several suggestions on the postfix mailing list - but
perhaps
the best one was from Weitse to ask here.... Any help ? Ideas ?
Directions ?
Did you read the note at the beginning of maildrop's INSTALL file,
and
do you understand what it tells you to do?
======================
According to "less" 6 % into the file, where it starts "NOTE:" and
"Your mail server must..." I have read, and re-read that section
several times. If that's what you're referencing, Sam, then I'm
missing what I skipped. I used the same socket as mysql, mysql.sock,
and the thw whole world right now could destroy it. I'm willing to
wear
the dunce's pointy cap...what did I miss ?
The socket in question has nothing to do with mysql.
That note gives you three options to choose from. Which one did you
choose?
======================
I thought that "--enable-maildrop-uid=root" accomplished the
first option
The 2nd option - "setuid root" I don't know how to set that on this
distro, so I tried "chown root maildrop" obviously without luck
The 3rd option was why I mentioned the mysql.sock - I changed a
parameter from the courier directory to the mysql directory, that I
made world destroyable
So if those are the three you're pointing to...then I do NOT understand
what is being requested.
Sorry.
