Hi all,
I am trying to set up shared folders with dovecot 1.2.10-0xk1 on a ubuntu 8.04 server and so far so good. I managed to share a folder using GOSa GUI, but I cannot list it on Thunderbird yet, because of acl_shared_dict param (I guess).
I tried BDB as per the wiki:
plugin { acl_shared_dict = file:/var/lib/dovecot/shared-mailboxes.db }
I gave shared-mailboxes.db 0666 perms but it keeps resetting permissions to 0600, which gives me "open(/var/lib/dovecot/shared-mailboxes.db) failed: Permission denied" errors. So I went to try sql dict, but could not find where to put sql server connection details like user, host, password.
dovecot -n (with sql dict): # 1.2.10: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf # OS: Linux 2.6.24-27-server i686 Ubuntu 8.04.4 LTS log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imap imaps managesieve ssl_cert_file: /etc/ssl/certs/dovecot.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/ssl/private/dovecot.pem disable_plaintext_auth: no login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login login_executable(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve-login mail_privileged_group: mail mail_location: maildir:~/Maildir mail_executable(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/imap mail_executable(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/managesieve mail_plugins(default): quota imap_quota acl imap_acl mail_plugins(imap): quota imap_quota acl imap_acl mail_plugins(managesieve): mail_plugin_dir(default): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(imap): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/imap mail_plugin_dir(managesieve): /usr/lib/dovecot/modules/managesieve namespace: type: private separator: / inbox: yes list: yes subscriptions: yes namespace: type: shared separator: / prefix: shared/%%u/ location: maildir:%%h/Maildir:INDEX=~/Maildir/shared/%%u list: children lda: postmaster_address: postmaster@a1.ind.br hostname: a1.ind.br mail_plugins: quota sieve acl auth default: mechanisms: plain login passdb: driver: pam args: session=yes blocking=yes dovecot userdb: driver: passwd socket: type: listen client: path: /var/spool/postfix/private/dovecot mode: 436 user: postfix group: postfix plugin: quota: maildir:storage=10485760 acl: vfile acl_anyone: allow acl_shared_dict: proxy::acl dict: acl: mysql:/etc/dovecot-dict-sql.conf
(/etc/dovecot-dict-sql.conf is a copy from the wiki)
Have I missed something? Thanks and best regards.
