Howdy,
Today I installed the new version of Apple OSX 10.6. Besides that it deleted the dovecot user, things went quite smooth. As far as I can tell it is running as it used to.
However, I can't login to my account. It used to work fine with PAM taking the username and password from my osx installation. Now it doesn't allow me to login anymore.
I have read on a website that apple changed from Linux-Pam to Open-Pam. If this is true, how would I need to change the PAM entry file? Right now it is as follows:
/etc/pam.d/dovecot:
# dovecot: auth account password session
auth required pam_nologin.so
auth sufficient pam_securityserver.so
auth sufficient pam_unix.so
auth required pam_deny.so
account required pam_permit.so
password required pam_deny.so
session required pam_uwtmp.soHere is a list with all dovecot processes
Maarten-2:sbin maarten$ ps auxw|grep "dovecot\|imap\|pop3" maarten 249 1,1 0,0 2435032 528 s000 S+ 3:21pm 0:00.00 grep dovecot\|imap\|pop3 dovecot 218 0,0 0,0 602248 660 ??

and here is my Dovecot configuration:
# 1.0.14: /opt/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often used insecurely so it is now deprecated, use mail_access_groups or mail_privileged_group instead base_dir: /var/run/dovecot/ protocols: imap ssl_disable: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot//login login_executable: /opt/libexec/dovecot/imap-login mail_extra_groups: mail mail_access_groups: mail default_mail_env: maildir:~/Maildir mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir auth default: passdb: driver: pam userdb: driver: passwd
Thanks in advance,
