Hi,
I seem to be forced to run the auth proces as root because I want to use pam for local users. My gut feeling says that this is Not Good. Is there another way? For the virtual users 'vmail' is good enough because that user may access the MySQL database.
If your /etc/shadow is readable by "shadow" group, you can use auth_user=something that uses shadow group as the primary group (maybe create a new "doveauth" user).
TNX Timo. I have added vmail to the shadow group. Now it may read /etc/shadow.
