Is there a way to circumvent the need for a configuration file?
I don't think so. But you can specify the location of the config file with -c /path/to/file like
echo -n plaintextpass | doveadm -c /root/emptyfile.conf pw -s SHA1
Thanks, Sami.
I tried this with /dev/null and /tmp/empty.conf but ran into another wall
doveadm(root): Fatal: execv(/usr/bin/doveconf) failed: No such file or directory
How did you install dovecot on that system since /usr/bin/doveconf is part of the base package?
