Hi,
I think that using more than one userdb with setting the result
actions doesn't work as expected from the documentation.
The goal would be to set user-specific quotas for a few users with a
specific passwd-file like this :
cat /etc/dovecot/quotas
foo:x::::::userdb_quota_rule=*:storage=2G
The first userdb is passwd (with pam passwd):
userdb {
driver = passwd
result_failure = return-fail
result_internalfail = return-fail
result_success = continue-ok
skip = never
}
The second one is for the specific quota
userdb {
args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/quotas
driver = passwd-file
result_failure = continue
result_internalfail = continue
result_success = return-ok
skip = notfound
}
User 'foo' exists in (pam) passd, but there's no place to store his own
quota rule, that's why came handy to use a second userdb for storing just
one extra field.
That's working quiet well, he default quota is overriding form passwd-file.
BUT:
I've played a lot with changing the result_* and the 'skip' parameters, but
none of them worked in the situation where a user ('bar') _only_ exists in
passwd (and has to use the default quota config).
doveadm quota get -u bar
says
doveadm(bar): Fatal: User doesn't exist
With changing the parameters this error has gone, but the second userdb
doesn't used for user 'foo' - even if the parameters are :
userdb {
driver = passwd
result_failure = return-fail
result_internalfail = return-fail
result_success = continue <-- in theory, the next
userdb is coming
skip = never
}
userdb {
args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/quotas
driver = passwd-file
result_failure = continue
result_internalfail = continue
result_success = return-ok
skip = notfound
}
My question is that how should i set the result_* and 'skip' parameters to
solve this :
- there's a default quota rule in the config
- some (a few) users has a larger quota
- there's no way to store the user-specific quotas in the 'real' userdb
(because it's pam/passwd)
Thank you for your effort.
