OK so far so good, next problem is about the old configuration lines :
# It's possible to export the authentication interface to other programs: socket listen { master { # Master socket provides access to userdb information. It's typically # used to give Dovecot's local delivery agent access to userdb so it # can find mailbox locations. path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-master mode = 0600 # Default user/group is the one who started dovecot-auth (root) user = vmail #group = } client { # The client socket is generally safe to export to everyone. Typical use # is to export it to your SMTP server so it can do SMTP AUTH lookups # using it. path = /var/run/dovecot/auth-client mode = 0660 } }
Where should I put them in the new config file hierarchy ? And do I still need them ? Just for information I have based my mail setup on the following guide : http://workaround.org/ispmail/etch
I have tested and there is still an issue with mysql because I get the following error :
Aug 07 12:51:20 auth: Fatal: Unknown passdb driver 'mysql' Aug 07 12:51:20 master: Error: service(auth): command startup failed, throttling
I am sure that mysql is installed and I have also installed dovecot-mysql_2.0.13-0~auto+70_i386.deb
