[Dovecot] MD5-CRYPT passwords in a MySQL Database

[David Mills]

First of all, hello to the list.


I'm currently migrating from a /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow based 
configuration to a MySQL based one using dovecot 99.14 on debian sarge.

The problem is that the /etc/shadow containes both DES encoded (Crypt) 
and md5 based passwords. I've set the default system to be Crypt, and 
have added {MD5-CRYPT} in front of the md5 passwords in place of the $1$ 
header found in /etc/shadow. But I can only log in on accounts that have 
DES based passwords.

I've included my dovecot configuration, and below are 2 examples of 
encoded password, one crypt and one MD5:
XalGYN3cy1crA                             
{MD5-CRYPT}RL$Bvv.TF2XJkyVI6JOUO8tx/


If anyone has any ideas I'd really appreciate them since 80 odd accounts 
have this problem, so changing them one by one will be difficult.

David
