[Dovecot] Tricks to running as normal user?
Hi,
I'm running on HPUX 11.11 and have installed dovecot 0.99.12 in my home directory. I've been running it at home on FC2 and had no problems. At work, on HPUX, when I modify the dovecot.conf file like is suggested in the wikki <http://wiki.dovecot.org/moin.cgi/Rootless>, it will detach and I can telnet to the port I've chosen, but I don't get any response back after I connect. Not other processes are getting launched when I connect. I can run the libexec/imap and get capability information echoed to the terminal.
I tried the test builds and they seem to be hanging during the parsing of the .conf file. The the process never goes into the background.
Does anyone have any suggestions on what I could try to get things running? Thanks very much.

Is dovecot-auth process running? Does HP-UX have anything similiar to strace?

Could you send me the .conf file? It shouldn't ever hang.

I'm running it just fine. Maybe the problems are specific to HP-UX rather than being rootless?
