[Dovecot] Authentication: Dovecot -> Vpopmail - > MySQL with one table per domain
Hi All,
I am using Dovecot 1.0.13 with Vpopmail (Qmail
Toaster current) backed by MySQL with one table per domain (--disable-many-domains) . What I cannot figure out is how to have Dovecot authenticate to Vpopmail when Vpopmail uses one table per domain. Basically I need dynamic SQL in the Dovecot-sql.conf file.
Currently I have:
password_query = select pw_clear_passwd as password
from domainname_com where pw_name = '%n'
I need something like
password_query = select pw_clear_passwd as password
from %d where pw_name = '%n'
Where %d is the name of the table. I can't use the
exact domain name at it will not match the vpopmail format domainname_com. I would be happy to use some sort of sting builder but and not sure what my options are in the .conf file.
Please help
Thanks in advance
James

You could convert '.' to '_':
auth_username_translation = ._
But using %d directly in the SQL query is getting a bit dangerous. The default auth_username_chars should make it safe, but if you add more chars such as ';' and ' ' you'll have a potential SQL injection security hole.
