Hi Everyone,
We are running two CentOS 7.2 servers with Sendmail 8.14.7 V10 and Dovecot 2.2.10 installed on both and are trying to configure Master-Master Replication using doveadm replicator.
We are using system users with PAM authentication but are receiving the following fatal error when dsync tries to run:
doveadm(user): Fatal: /var/run/dovecot/auth-userdb: Configured passdbs don't support crentials lookups (to see if user is proxied, because doveadm_port is set).
Please could someone confirm whether it is possible to configure replication using PAM passdb as the above error seems to suggest it isn't but we have come across various people online who seem to have it working. I don't know whether we need to create a master user or whether we need to create a separate password file with a directory of all of our user's passwords? We do have all the user passwords as they are only internal accounts that we are servicing.
Thanks in advance
