Hi,
im a newbee using dovecot. I want to use checkpassword, but i've no idea
how to use it.
DoveCot is running and checking the passwords with a ldap server. But in
future we want to use a sql database, where the password and
userinformation is stored.
I want to use checkpassword, to authetificate the users with the
passwords. But ive no idea how a script for checkpassword can be. What
should i write to the checkpassword file (actualy the file is empty).
The SQL Database is on another server. Can i use PHP for checkpassword,
and if i can, how should it be written. Which variables can i use and
what and how shoul i return the result?
Greetings,
Muhammed
