Data courier-imap auth problem

Hi,

My box is freeBSD6 and I've installed courier-imap and I want to authenticate the clients against /etc/passwd file.

Inside the configuration file: /usr/local/etc/courier-imap/pop3d I've not these lines : Why?
AUTHMODULES="authdaemon"
AUTHMODULES_ORIG="authdaemon"

Nevertheless I tried with telnet 10.10.10.5 110 and I get this error:

May 31 11:39:24 gw pop3d: authdaemon: s_connect() failed: No such file or directory
May 31 11:39:24 gw pop3d: LOGIN FAILED, user=ppp, ip=[10.10.10.5]
May 31 11:39:24 gw pop3d: authentication error: No such file or directory


What do I miss?

Thanks...

Also got this

Hi,

I have looked on a lot of forums and most people think it has to do with the permissions on the socket. I have checked my permissions and they are fine. Have been stuck on this for a while. Let me know if you find a solution.

Hammer & Screwdriver

Hi,

The problem was on freeBSD, thanks any way for your time.

The error was in /etc/pam.d/imap, the solution was:

auth required pam_unix.so no_warn try_first_pass
account required pam_unix.so
session required pam_permit.so

Now that you talk about ldap, do you know some solution to keep the users' contacts on the server and manage (add, delete, modify) them from Microsoft Outlook?
