Hi,
Hi Jamie!
I am attempting to get dovecot up and running on FreeBSD 4.9..... Tried with the default config file and my own one (below) but when trying to login I get the following:
Feb 10 17:59:53 cobain dovecot-auth: passwd(jamie): invalid password field '*'
It seems like it is trying to read straight from /etc/passwd? I thought it called getpw().
I'm running Dovecot on FreeBSD 4.9 no problem.
I've not done anything special to the authentication options in the config file so perhaps you have done something funky to them?
Are you sure that your 'jamie' account actually has a password set?
