[Dovecot] dovecot-auth zombie procs
Hi, every now and then it seems as if dovecot-auth zombie's out. When this happens nobody can log in. If I kill all the dovecot-auth processes and then restart dovecot everything seems to work again. I'm authenticating against an openldap server on a debian sarge box so I wonder if this has anything to do with it. All my clients are using Outlook. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

How often dovecot-auth restarts? Do you actually see it as a zombie in ps list? Or do you see multiple ones?
If the dovecot-auth process keeps restarting, there must be something in log files about it. In that case it's probably some library incompatibility problem.
If dovecot-auth keeps creating child processes, it's not Dovecot itself which is creating them. Maybe some library, such as LDAP or SASL.
