Re: [Dovecot] auth on tcp socket?
Hello,
there are some warnings in log: "when SASL type is "dovecot", SASL path "inet:localhost:1434" should be a socket pathname" ( Datei src/xsasl/xsasl_dovecot_server.c )
file xsasl_dovecot_server.c is in postfix sources but was written by you, Timo Should there also made an update to support auth on tcp-socket without warnings from postfix side?
Thanks, Hajo

Timo you can drop me "draft text" and I will incorporate it into SASL_README. I've done that before for Postfix SASL_README.

Maybe something like:
Dovecot v2.0.8 and later versions support SASL authentication via inet socket as well. There is no security layer protecting the authentication, so this should only be used within a trusted network or via VPN.

The initial version, yes, but it has been heavily modified since. I never added that warning.

Looks like someone already added the inet: support, so I guess it should work. You could ask on Postfix list to get the warning removed..
