Re: [Dovecot] dovecot2 auth-worker socket perms ignoring assigned ownership settings in conf.d/10-master.conf?

Sorry for any confusion.

np. issue solved. for my config,

...
service auth-worker {
	user = doveauth
	unix_listener auth-worker {
		user = doveauth
	}
}
...

then

service dovecot-custom restart
ls -al /var/run/dovecot/auth-worker
 srw------- 1 doveauth root 0 Oct 11 20:56
 /var/run/dovecot/auth-worker

better. and,

telnet 127.0.0.1 4143
	Trying 127.0.0.1...
	Connected to 127.0.0.1.

I'm curious though, why are you setting the auth stuff up to be owned by postfix if you'd trying to authenticate dovecot imap processes? It seems you're mixing two different configs.

I'm converting to SQL from flatfiles (http://wiki2.dovecot.org/HowTo/VirtualUserFlatFilesPostfix).

Just haven't gotten to making all the changes yet. Single-stepping through testing, got to IMAP and found this issue.

Thanks for the help!
