Package: courier-authdaemon
Version: 0.63.0-6+b1
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Dear Maintainer,
with updating system from Debian 6.0.8 to 7.2 the Postfix
authentication don't work. courier-authdaemon authenticate
the system's users that are used to send email from external
on SMTP connections.
The postfix logs reporting:
postfix/smtpd[]: warning: SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to
Courier authdaemond: Connection refused
postfix/smtpd[]: warning: X[Y.Z.J.K]: SASL LOGIN authentication failed: generic
failure
The solution is:
rm -r /var/run/courier/authdaemon
ln -s /var/spool/postfix/var/run/courier/authdaemon /var/run/courier
because postfix, in the standard installation, is in a chroot environment.
I propose a solution that make the job automagically.
Modify the courier-authdaemon start up script in the following manner:
~# diff -c /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon_orig
*** /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon 2013-11-18 18:48:58.868867113 +0100
--- /etc/init.d/courier-authdaemon_orig 2012-06-09 18:45:14.000000000 +0200
