[Omail-devel] Can't auth using vmailmgr although output of vauthenticate is correct.

[nednieuws | c. <ch...@ne...>]

This is what I tried:

root@usnj1 ~ # echo -e "domain.nl\000user\000pass\000" | /usr/local/bin/vauthenticate
UID=1300
GID=1300
USER=vuser
HOME=/home/vuser
MAILDIR=./users/user
VUSER=user

Wed Jun  9 12:51:02 2004 - [69767-O] (213.84.95.120,) UNKNOWNUSER - login - started - version 0.98.5
Wed Jun  9 12:51:02 2004 - [69767-O] (213.84.95.120,) UNKNOWNUSER - login - vauth login FAILED for user @ domain.nl
Wed Jun  9 12:51:02 2004 - [69767-O] (213.84.95.120,) UNKNOWNUSER - login - FAILED login - user


This is how I've configure omail.pl (suid):

---[omail.pl begin]---

my $vmailmgr = 1;                          # if you use Bruce's package...
my $vmailmgr_old = 0;                      # ...with old style passwd file (flat text)
my $vauthenticate = '/usr/local/bin/vauthenticate';
# ...or the new passwd.cdb (binary)  ($vmailmgr_old = 0)

---[omail.pl end]---

Thought I'd paste this in too as I saw discussions about this in the
list. The test case as described above does not use a password which
begins with a number. There is at least one person that /does/ use a
password which begins with a number. Should I modify the lines below?

---[omail.pl begin]---

    if ($vmailmgr && !$vmailmgr_old && !$vpopmail) {

        my $command = 'echo -e "'. $domainname .'\x00'. $username .'\x00'. $password .'\x00" | ' .$vauthenticate;
        my $output = `$command`;

        if (!$output) {
            $passcorrect = 0;
            writelog("vauth login FAILED for $username \@ $domainname");

---[omail.pl end]---

I've installed:

FreeBSD 4.9-RELEASE
qmail 1.03 with SPAMCONTROL 2.212
oMail-webmail 0.98.5
vmailmgr 0.96.9
