Hello all,
I've been running dovecot authenticating against a local MySQL database,
but it has come time to implement it with a remote database. Instead of
using stunnel, I'd rather take advantage of MySQL's native SSL support.
I didn't know if this was possible with dovecot, and if it was, what
config changes I might need to get it going.
I found the below page/patch from some time ago and tried to use the
ssl_key and ssl_cert directives in /etc/dovecot-sql.conf, but it didn't
seem to recognize them (perhaps I need to compile mysql-ssl support into
dovecot manually?):
http://www.dovecot.org/list/dovecot-cvs/2004-July/003003.html
Also, I noticed a need for ssl_ca and ssl_ca_path but am unfamiliar with
how to generate what's needed if these options are required.
FYI, dovecot 1.0.7 is running on CentOS 4.5, using rpm from ATrpms:
http://dl.atrpms.net/el4-i386/atrpms/stable/dovecot-1.0.7-0_63.el4.i386.rpm
Thanks for any advice or documentation pointers you can provide. Have a
great evening everyone!
