Hi!
I'm trying to use a master user, here is what I'm doing:
dovecot.conf:
auth default {
[...]
passdb passwd-file {
args = /etc/dovecot.passdb_master
pass = yes
master = yes
}
passdb passwd-file {
args = /etc/dovecot.passdb
}
[...]
}
(Dovecot said that one can not place the passdb containing "master =
yes" last, why?)
This only works if the master user (in the master passwd file) has PLAIN
password scheme. It doesn't work with DIGEST-MD5. Here is the log when
it's in DIGEST-MD5:
auth(default): passdb(master,84.x.x.x,master): Master user logging in as
leva
auth(default): digest-md5(leva,84.x.x.x): password mismatch
imap-login: Disconnected: user=<leva>, method=DIGEST-MD5, rip=84.x.x.x,
lip=212.x.x.x, TLS
When the master password is in PLAIN scheme, I can login as anyone.
I'm using dovecot-1.1beta4.
