This authentication model is working for the dovecot imap server.
However, under openwebmail I am accessing the database through 'localhost' instead of sockets and I keep getting a postgres pg_hba.conf configuration error. The affecting line is:
host all all 127.0.0.1 md5
2004-06-14 21:58:22 [24670] LOG: connection received: host=127.0.0.1 port=33487
2004-06-14 21:58:22 [24670] LOG: invalid entry in pg_hba.conf file at line 89, token "md5"
dovecot accesses the database for authenction through a line that says: local all all md5 (successfully).
Right now I have to figure this out, but my openwebmail part of the question is, can I set the host to a local socket?
After that, the next question is going to be:
If I take the user information (home, uid, gid) from /etc/passwd and the authentication information (user, password) from postgresql, how do I do this? I'm not sure that it will work, but I have set the "use_homedirspools yes", but I'm not certain that this will work.
I do not as yet have any of the home/uid/gid information in the postgres database.
