Done. Courier-authlib seems to be working fine. I can log in using an email
client, and everything works fine. I can telnet to all the ports listed in the
"Debugging authentication problems" document without any problem. The problem
is I cannot get sqwebmail to authenticate. It looks like it isn't even trying.
You can take sqwebmail out of the equation entirely by using
authtest <username> <password>
at the command line.
I tried this and got "ERR: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: Connection refused
Authentication FAILED: Illegal seek." However, I can authenticate with an email
client and also by telnetting to the various ports.
Also, during sqwebmail setup, it never asked for any kind of MySQL
authentication information (which surprised me a bit!).
OK, I admit--I had been up for about 36 hours when I wrote this. Too much Diet
Coke and NoDoz!
That's part of courier-authlib's configuration. The config files are
authdaemonrc and authmysqlrc. It's up to you to configure these to meet your
requirements. If you have a backup of the old E-mail server then you can use
the old files as a guide, although I'd recommend starting with the new file
and updating each parameter by hand.
Yes, these are correct and working fine, I assume--since everyone can log in
using their email clients.
