Hello Timo,
doveconf: Fatal: Error in configuration file /usr/local/dovecot-1.2.12/etc/dovecot.conf line 176: Unknown setting: process_limit
This was caused by the old settings translator. What was in line 176?
login_max_processes_count = 1024
Did you have managesieve installed for v1.2?
No.
imap process_limit + pop3 process_limit + whatever other protocols you have enabled and + their process_limit.
Ok. Can you explain what are :
#default_process_limit = 100 -> which processes ? #default_client_limit = 1000 -> 1 client == 1 remote ip ? #default_vsz_limit = 256M -> ?
Is there anything to know about this new syntax other than files are introduced by "<" ?
Nope. Well, if you don't want to use files, you can also do:
No,no. I just thought it may have something to do with the mode the file would be/should be opened.
. why is this default not in 10-auth.conf file ?
You mean why isn't there an example remote {} block there?
No. I mean, why isn't the 'disable_plaintext_auth' directive not in the auth.conf file, since it's an auth related directive ?
. would I have been allowed to do, for instance, in that file at the same line
protocol imap { remote <internal network address> { disable_plaintext_auth = no }?
Yes.
But didn't you just say that "Currently auth settings don't support local/remote blocks" ?
Finally, would it make sense to declare other auth listeners than the two listed by default in the 10-master.conf file ?
The defaults also have one example auth(-client) socket commented out for Postfix. You can create more of them if you want, but unless something actually uses them they're a bit pointless.
Ok, maybe I meant "the auth-userdb" unix listener is mandatory" : is it ?
Thanks.
