[Dovecot] HP-UX troubles

[Matthias Luehr]

Hi there,

I got dovecot compiled and running on HP-UX 11.23.

It's using LDAPUX and PAM for authentication. So far, it works. But after
logging in the connection is closed immediately. It looks like this:

telnet <ip> 143
Connected to ...
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK Dovecot ready.
a01 login <user> <pass>
Connection closed by foreign host.

The dovecot log says:

Error: imap-login: fd_send(7) failed: Bad file number
Error: child 22629 (login) returned error 89


As far as I can see, the problem seems to reside in dovecot's fdpass.c...

dovecot version: 1.0.3
gcc version: 2.9

Any ideas or solutions?

Thanks in advance,

Matthias
