Thanks. If I do that in my passdb-test.c file, it core dumps. I did something simple like: auth_request_set_userdb_field(auth_request, "customFlag", dec2str(50)); However, auth_request_set_field() used like this: auth_request_set_field(auth_request, "customFlag", dec2str(50), NULL); doesn't core dump. What's the difference between both functions and finally, how do I retrieve values from auth_request ?
Thank you

and it will be available in userdb.

I modified struct auth_request in auth-request.h to contain a new variable and it gets set properly in my passdb, however the value is not there when checking for it userdb. I'm very novice when it comes to Dovecot programming so any help is appreciated. Thanks!
