Hello Everyone,
First wanted to say thanks for any help in advance.
I have a clustered mail system each running on centos 5.2. I have a
test box that I am running the newest version on dovecot on and I am
getting some random authnication failed errors. Here is the error below:
Nov 04 17:31:22 auth(default): Error: worker-server(xxx at xxxx.com):
Aborted: Lookup timed out
Nov 04 17:31:23 auth(default): Info: client out: FAIL 2 user=xxx at xxxx.com
temp
The thing is, the errors only show when the user is attempting to send
a message.
Here is my dovecot -n

Also here is my dovecot-sql.conf
user_query = SELECT '/export/monster/mail/%d/%n' as home, 'maildir:/
export/monster/mail/%d/%n:INDEX=/export/monster/mail/%d/%n' as mail,
5000 AS uid, 5000 AS gid, concat('*:bytes=', quota) AS quota_rule FROM
mailbox WHERE username ='%u' AND active ='1'
password_query = SELECT MB.password FROM (mailbox as MB) LEFT JOIN
domain as D ON (D.id=MB.domain_id AND D.active='1') WHERE MB.username
= '%u' AND MB.active = '1' AND (D.id IS NOT NULL OR (MB.domain_id=0
and MB.name='SASL'))
I have disabled user prefetch because for some reason, I get this
error when it is active:
Nov 04 17:05:25 auth(default): Info: prefetch
(xxx at xxxx.net,xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx): passdb didn't return userdb entries,
trying the next userdb
Thanks for any help you can offer.
