<0> how can I tell which smtpd.conf postfix is using?
<0> because my sasl distribution comes with /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf, which is dumb
<1> Darien, you could symlink it.
<0> true
<0> I'm trying to make PAM-mysql work
<2> how to change the extension of files delivered by virtual(8)? currently on my computer, I use maildir and each email is a file, with file name formed by appending host name to some random number, I want to change the extension to something like .eml
<1> Darien, I'm trying to make PAM-pgslq work (:
<0> :(
<1> Darien, don't make such a face...
<1> It's fun!
<2> jMCg: I'm using pam-ldap :)
<1> You always must insist, that debugging is fun!
<0> :(
<1> DEBUGGING IS FUN!
<1> SAY IT ALL TOGETHER!
<2> i guess you have a same problem with the one I encoutered when configuring the system



<2> debugging is no fun
<2> there is a bug in local(8)
<0> to hell with this
<3> hi, i have a simple question: im testing a little mailserver con my home
<3> using dyndns dynamic dns service
<3> but im unable to set the mx record to my domain
<0> you shouldn't need to do that
<2> not all dynamic dns service offer seperated MX record
<3> do you mean that i dont need an mx record?
<0> if an MX for a domain isn't explicitly specified, MTAs will generally try to connect directly to the host
<2> Darien: if you describe your problem, I may give you a hint
<0> MX records are highly desirable though
<3> yes but some hosts will deny me because i dont have an mx ...
<0> metaman: sasl can't see the 'sql' authentication module
<0> j4ff4r: then change dynamic DNS providers
<2> Darien: can't see?
<0> metaman: it's there, but saslauthd (for example) doesn't report it as existing
<0> metaman: and if I tell it to use it, it doesn't
<2> have you installed libsasl2-modules?
<0> yes
<0> pam, etc. are all installed
<2> nss is configured as well?
<0> NSS?
<2> yes, you may need it
<0> shouldn't especially need to be
<3> lets say my domain is newbie.host.com
<0> not for SQL auth anyway
<3> when i try to set as mx record mx.newbie.host.com in the cpanel
<0> err
<3> it says The MX entered ("mail.oasis.dnsdojo.com") did not resolve or resolved to a CNAME.
<0> that's because it's a CNAME
<2> Darien: do you use local(8) or virutal(8) ?
<0> metaman: ?
<0> j4ff4r: oasis.dnsdojo.com is the real nameserver
<3> yes -_-
<2> Darien: do you deliver the emails to your hard disk?
<0> yes
<0> not to system users, mind
<2> well, but it's out of scope, you are talking about sasl :(
<0> sasl grr
<0> why does Postfix have to use SASL?
<0> how many authentication abstraction layers do we need?
<3> but i dont understand, why is the mx record field if my domain is a CNAME?
<0> j4ff4r: because it needs to be a specific host, not an alias
<0> aliases can change
<2> using sasl makes life of postfix coders easier, I guess
<0> why can't it AUTH against mysql? it can deliver against MySQL
<0> authing is not that big of a step
<0> :/
<3> Darien: i get it.. so basically theres no need to input any mx record
<3> Postfix will do it anyway
<0> j4ff4r: well yeah, there is if it's a different server
<0> j4ff4r: but you need to specify a server, not an alias to a server
<3> im using a dynamic dns because i have no server
<0> ...
<0> you're specifying a server
<0> mail.oasis.dnsdojo.com
<0> is that your dynamic host?
<3> oasis.dnsdojo.com
<0> ok



<0> then use that for your MX
<3> no need for mail.
<0> no need, and it doesn't work anyway
<0> that CNAME is what's breaking things
<0> mail servers don't *have* to be called mail.* ;)
<3> thanks for your time -specially for your patience :)
<1> The worst thing is, when you think you have it. And in fact it is just a little thing you don't see
<1> I'm so ****ing blind.....
<1> This looks very wrong to me: http://phpfi.com/105273
<4> im getting these errors in my mail.log... 451 4.5.0 Error in processing, id=08884-01, mime_decode-1 FAILED: parsing file(1) results - missing last 2 results at (eval 47) line 156. ...i turn the content_filter line off in postfix/main.cf ... and everything works fine... so its a problem with amavis right? anyone seen this before?
<4> anyone?
<5> That log message is from amavis, yes.
<5> But amavis has its own logs, what do those say?
<4> let me check
<4> amavis doesn't have any logs... i think its logging somewhere else...
<4> how do i find out where?
<4> amavisd.conf?
<5> Amavis definitely logs
<5> Yep
<4> ah
<4> bleh
<5> Heh
<5> I find it easier to just have amavis log to syslog, then all my mail logs are in one place
<4> http://pastebin.com/581142
<4> hmm
<4> it looks like it doesn't have permission to write to /dev/null?
<5> That's all quite bizarre
<4> isn't it
<4> happened upon reboot
<4> i just chmod 777 /dev/null
<4> and everything is working again
<5> ah good
<4> what are the proper permissions for /dev/null?
<5> 666
<4> so i should chmod to 666
<4> and see if it errors out
<4> file
<4> cd /
<4> ls
<4> cd /
<4> ls
<4> sorry
<4> i was wondering why it wasn't doing anything
<4> :-)
<0> haha
<5> :D
<4> chmod 666 /dev/null
<4> and i start getting the same error again
<4> i would just leave it at 777
<4> however that seems very insecure
<4> unsecure
<0> rm /dev/null
<4> hrm
<4> and then restart amavisd?
<0> I hope you didn't actually do what I just said
<4> i did...
<4> nothing a touch /dev/null won't fix
<0> ok
<0> yes
<0> it is something a 'touch /dev/null' won't fix
<4> so what the hell is going on here?
<4> really?
<4> cause i just did it
<0> yes
<4> ...
<0> ok, well do rm /dev/null again
<0> then do 'mknod /dev/null 1 3'
<0> oops
<4> wrong number of arguments buddy
<0> then do 'mknod /dev/null c 1 3'
<4> so if i had deleted /dev/null some time ago, then chmoded it to 777... then the server reboots, and starts throwing these errors...
