[Dovecot] Settings: Dovecot + NTLM + Single Sing On + Windows + Outlook or Thunderbird.

[Maria Jose Yañez Dacosta]

Hi!,

Change the version, now I have installed the version 2.1.16.

If I do "doveconf -n" it show

 # 2.1.16: /usr/local/etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux
2.6.32-358.6.2.el6.x86_64 x86_64 CentOS release 6.4 (Final)
auth_use_winbind = yes namespace inbox { inbox = yes location = mailbox
Drafts { special_use = \Drafts } mailbox Junk { special_use = \Junk }
mailbox Sent { special_use = \Sent } mailbox "Sent Messages" { special_use
= \Sent } mailbox Trash { special_use = \Trash } prefix = } passdb { driver
= pam } protocols = imap pop3 ssl = no userdb { args = uid=10000 gid=10000
home=/mail/%d/%n allow_all_users=yes driver = static }
The things I do not recognize are:

                             mechanisms = plain ntlm login

Looking at the log (In /var/log/maillog ) when I do telnet localhost imap:

May 31 15:45:55 prueba-mail dovecot: master: Dovecot v2.1.16 starting up
(core dumps disabled)
May 31 15:46:04 prueba-mail dovecot: auth: Fatal: Support not compiled in
for passdb driver 'pam'
May 31 15:46:04 prueba-mail dovecot: master: Error: service(auth): command
startup failed, throttling for 2 secs
May 31 15:46:04 prueba-mail dovecot: imap-login: Disconnected: Auth process
broken (disconnected before greeting, waited 0 secs): user=<>, rip=::1,
lip=::1, secured, session=<jabyBgjevAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAB>

What can be causing this error?, What should go in place of those lines
that are not recognized?

I'm using the how to: http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/ActiveDirectoryNtlm


Thank!!.
