[Dovecot] Errors in /var/log/maillog and /var/log/dovecot.log
I am trying to migrate from UW imap to dovecot.
OS: RHEL 3 X86 MTA: Postfix Auth: PAM (NIS server)
Most of the users are fine, but I have some users have problems:
" Jan 14 09:18:42 Info: imap-login: Internal login failure: user=<user1>, method=PLAIN, rip=X.X.X.X, lip=X.X.X.X, TLS "
This happens on dovecot version dovecot-1.0.alpha5-1 and dovecot-0.99.11-1
If anyone else has met such problem?
Thanks

what does the secure.log say when this happens? Is there a pam auth failure just before this?
-sv
There was not any auth failure or err messages in secure log related to imaps being logged. But the dovecot.log does have more detailed info:
" Jan 14 09:18:42 Info: imap-login: Internal login failure: user=<user1>, method=PLAIN, rip=X.X.X.X, lip=X.X.X.X, TLS Jan 14 09:19:03 Info: auth(default): client in: AUTH 1 PLAIN service=IMAP secured lip=X.X.X.X rip=X.X.X.Xresp=AGJicm9vbQBlZTBuQHJkMA== Jan 14 09:19:05 Info: auth(default): pam(user1,X.X.X.X): pam_authenticate() failed: Authentication failure "

fixed now as my failure to set first_valid_uid to lower value . Some users have uids of lower than 500
