Hi!
First of all, can you provide output of 'doveconf -n'? It's much cleaner to read and shows what's really there?

Hello,
We're having difficulty with our updated cluster of dovecot servers accessing the email storage on the NFS mounts. It seems index files get corrupted when 2 backend mailservers access the same account, and from documentation setting up a director proxy in front of the backup servers. I'm trying to just set up a straight proxy first, which the documents say is the first step, and although I can see the connections coming into the server when I try to login via the proxy, the connection times out and there are no logs from dovecot anywhere saying what happened to the connection.
The configs I have set up for this in dovecot are:
dovecot.conf
# Protocols we want to be serving. protocols = imap pop3
#when re-enabling quota enforcement add quota in below: mail_plugins = $mail_plugins mail_log notify
protocol imap { # Space separated list of plugins to load (default is global mail_plugins). #when re-enabling quota enforcement add imap_quota in below: mail_plugins = $mail_plugins }
# A comma separated list of IPs or hosts where to listen in for connections. # "*" listens in all IPv4 interfaces, "::" listens in all IPv6 interfaces. # If you want to specify non-default ports or anything more complex, # edit conf.d/master.conf. #listen = *, ::
# Base directory where to store runtime data. #base_dir = /var/run/dovecot/
# Name of this instance. In multi-instance setup doveadm and other commands # can use -i <instance_name> to select which instance is used (an alternative # to -c <config_path>). The instance name is also added to Dovecot processes # in ps output. #instance_name = dovecot
# Greeting message for clients. login_greeting = Welcome to easyMail.
shutdown_clients = yes
# Most of the actual configuration gets included below. The filenames are # first sorted by their ASCII value and parsed in that order. The 00-prefixes # in filenames are intended to make it easier to understand the ordering. !include conf.d/*.conf

## ## Authentication processes ## # Username formatting before it's looked up from databases. You can use # the standard variables here, eg. %Lu would lowercase the username, %n would # drop away the domain if it was given, or "%n-AT-%d" would change the '@' into # "-AT-". This translation is done after auth_username_translation changes. auth_username_format = %Lu
# Space separated list of wanted authentication mechanisms: # plain login digest-md5 cram-md5 ntlm rpa apop anonymous gssapi otp skey # gss-spnego # NOTE: See also disable_plaintext_auth setting. auth_mechanisms = plain login # # Password database is used to verify user's password (and nothing more). # You can have multiple passdbs and userdbs.

I'm basically expecting this to forward the login requests on to 10.5.10.121 when I try to access the email account through the proxy. When I attempt this I am able to see the connections in a tcp dump, but dovecot does not log anything about the attempt. I clearly must be missing something, can you let me know what I need to do or check?
