Hi I finished my mail server and try to login with squirrelmail. I get the error ERROR: Connection dropped by IMAP server. The configtest is all okay. Where to go from here?
I followed the guide for email for the home network. I go to squirrelmail WITHOUT https (so http) the guide uses https...

try checking your imap server's max connections per ip. it could be possible that you have expended those, and when you log into SM, it logs you right back out.
cheers

depends on your imap server, for me (courier)... it's /etc/courier-imap/imapd
cheers

| Code: | /etc/init.d/courier-authlib restart
* Stopping courier-imapd over SSL ... [ ok ]
* Stopping courier-authlib: authdaemond ... [ ok ]
* Starting courier-authlib: authdaemond ... [ ok ]

okay, so we're getting somewhere. 
what's in /var/log/messages and /var/log/mail.*... anything useful?
edit: i noticed it said SSL, i think you want courier-imapd not courier-imapd-ssl
cheers

var/log/mail/current:
| Code: | Feb 18 13:58:47 [imapd-ssl] couriertls: /var/lib/courier-imap/couriersslcache: No such file or directory

Feb 18 13:58:52 [imapd-ssl] LOGOUT, ip=[78.6.1.50] |
There is no /var/lib/courier-imap I found this had to do with caching in the file imapd-ssl so I disabled that and restarted the service no the log shows

I tried telnet into localhost 143 (removed ssl)
| Code: | A LOGIN user password
A NO Login failed. |
Sigh, I don't know what to do anymore. I tried tons of thing but some how the authorization isn't doing what it should. What config files do you need to help? |

Surfing along I found that most /etc/pam.d/imap have entire paths mine is:
| Code: | auth required pam_nologin.so
auth required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account required pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session required pam_stack.so service=system-auth

I'm trying to get courier-imapd-ssl running. When I start the service and do the following:
| Code: | computer-01 courier-imap # telnet computer-01 993
Trying 78.6.1.50...
Connected to computer-01.DOMAIN
Escape character is '^]'.
A LOGIN ekoster SECRET
Connection closed by foreign host. |
the /var/log/mail/current log shows:
| Code: | Feb 20 18:41:37 [authdaemond] stopping authdaemond children
Feb 20 18:41:43 [authdaemond] modules="authpam", daemons=0
Feb 20 18:41:43 [authdaemond] Configuration error - missing 'daemons' setting, using 1
Feb 20 18:41:43 [authdaemond] Installing libauthpam
Feb 20 18:41:43 [authdaemond] Installation complete: authpam
Feb 20 18:41:54 [imapd-ssl] couriertls: accept: error:140760FC:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_CLIENT_HELLO:unknown protocol
|
Top rows are from starting ofcourse
UPDATE
using "openssl s_client -connect computer-01:993" it will connect !! the log then says connected running the "A LOGIN then fails with login failed the final line for the openssl command will say:
| Code: | | * OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 UIDPLUS CHILDREN NAMESPACE THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES SORT QUOTA IDLE AUTH=PLAIN ACL ACL2=UNION] Courier-IMAP ready. Copyright 1998-2005 Double Precision, Inc. See COPYING for distribution information. |
This failure LOGIN FAILED, user=USER, ip ... is the same as with just imap!!
where can i increase the loging on this? Found that in /etc/courier/authlib/authdaemonrc it says now:
| Code: | Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] authpam: trying this module
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] authpam: sysusername=ekoster, sysuserid=<null>, sysgroupid=1000, homedir=/home/ekoster, address=ekoster, fullname=, maildir=<null>, $
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] authpam: clearpasswd=<null>, passwd=x
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] pam_service=imap, pam_username=ekoster
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] pam_authenticate failed, result 28
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] authpam: REJECT - try next module
Feb 20 21:22:06 [courier-authlib] FAIL, all modules rejected
Feb 20 21:22:06 [imapd] LOGIN FAILED, user=ekoster, ip=[78.6.1.50]
|
So how to not reject the module
GREAT !!!
I solved it I added authshadow. I works for normal imap. Thats good enough for me, no to set everything else. |
