Re: [Dovecot] Dovecot & SquirrelMail
aries:/etc/init.d# netstat -ltnp | grep ':143' aries:/etc/init.d#
Right I found that cyrus was in the inet config uncommented and now I recieve outputs for dovecot :)
As for SquirrelMail Config test: Warning: fsockopen(): unable to connect to localhost:143 in /var/www/mail/src/configtest.php on line 247
ERROR: Error connecting to IMAP server "localhost:143".Server error: (111)Connection refused

Hi I am back thought I should start a new mail... since i lost track of previous. Anyways,
Does Dovecot require courier-authdaemon or whatever it is called to run? When running the following i recieve the following output should I kill inet from 143 or not.
aries:/etc/init.d# netstat -ltnp | grep ':143' tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:143 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 24715/inetd
more than likely, you should check in your distribution's inetd.conf (under xinetd, normally /etc/xinetd.d/ is where configurations are kept) and remove any reference to an imap server in there since you're not launching dovecot from inetd... you should be seeing errors like "unable to bind to port" in your syslog coming from dovecot.. (i personally don't use inetd for launching things... but to each their own)
hope this helps
I am recieving the same response with the dovecot init file:
aries:/etc/init.d# /etc/init.d/dovecot aries:/etc/init.d# /etc/init.d/dovecot
aries:/etc/init.d# /etc/init.d/dovecot restart aries:/etc/init.d#
There is no output possible because of inet? Any Help will be great! Thanks!

You are way overcomlicating things, dovecot has its own socket manager, just run dovecot as a daemon now and it will do the rest for you (as long as it is configured correctly).

Right, ok thanks for the socket tip. The config file has quite alot of configurations and most of it is commented out what Main Configs do I need to configure to allow Dovecot to run correctly?

The defaults are pretty standard. You will probably need to configure you mailbox location and type.
