Greetings!
This may not be the correct forum for this issue, but I thought I'd start here and find a more appropriate newsgroup if one exists. I also apologize for the length of this message, but there is a lot of log info down here. I would be happy to send conf. file info as well if anyone needs to see it.
Setup: Mandrake Linux 10.1, Cyrus-imapd-2.2.8-4.1.101mdk, Openssl-0.9.7d-1mdk, saslauthd 2.1.19 (authentication mechanisms: getpwent kerberos5 pam rimap shadow ldap), pam-0.77-26mdk MySQL-4.0.20-3.1.101mdk Postfix-2.1.4-2mdk web-cyradm-0.5.4-1 apache2-2.0.50-7mdk
I am trying to configure an imap mail server for my local LAN. At this point, I am not drawing SMTP mail from my ISP -- only sending SMTP over my own LAN.
I attempted the Postfix+Cyrus-imap+MySQL configuration and struggled
with it for several days. I gave up and uninstalled Cyrus in favor of
Courier (have a Postfix+Courier-imap+MySQL machine serving mail on my
LAN right now, but it's a desktop and I'm adding a dedicated server).
For some reason I couldn't get that to work (authenticate) either and
uninstalled Courier for another crack at Cyrus. I've set this stuff up
according to
http://www.delouw.ch/linux/Postfix-Cyrus-Web-cyradm-HOWTO/html/web-cyradm-config.html
but I've noticed some discrepencies due to differences in the location of files from distribution to distribution. For example, in the log excerpt below.
Syslog says: tail -n 15 /var/log/syslog Dec 22 10:04:06 shuttle imaps[19857]: Fatal error: imaps: required OpenSSL options not present Dec 22 10:04:06 shuttle pop3s[19858]: pop3s: required OpenSSL options not present
Mail log doesn't seem to register anything.
The Auth.log seems to be telling: tail /var/log/auth.log Dec 22 11:10:00 shuttle sshd[5568]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:15:00 shuttle sshd[5582]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:20:00 shuttle sshd[5592]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:25:01 shuttle sshd[5602]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:30:00 shuttle sshd[5612]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:35:00 shuttle sshd[5622]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:40:00 shuttle sshd[5642]: Did not receive identification string from ::ffff:127.0.0.1 Dec 22 11:40:01 shuttle imap[4108]: could not find auxprop plugin, was searching for '[all]' Dec 22 11:40:01 shuttle last message repeated 3 times Dec 22 11:41:10 shuttle imap[4109]: could not find auxprop plugin, was searching for '[all]'
The user "cyrus" exists in the "accountuser" table and the default password is there (encrypted). Pointing a browser to localhost/web-cyradm brings up the login screen, but no matter what I enter into the Username and Password fields, it just resets the login screen -- I can't get logged in.
I'd really appreciate any help I can get with this. I'm sure it's something simple and basic that I'm missing.
Thanks.
