luckyonehello - can anyone help me get dovecot setup correctly?08:03
soren!ask08:04
ubotuPlease don't ask to ask a question, ask the question (all on ONE line, so others can read and follow it easily). If anyone knows the answer they will most likely answer. :-)08:04
luckyoneI am having trouble getting a mail server set up08:04
luckyoneI need advice - I have followed the tutorials and things *seem* to be working08:04
luckyonebut alas, I cannot send/receive mail from the accounts that I created with postfixadmin08:05
sorenWhat's postfixadmin?08:06
luckyoneit is a php frontend that helps manage a postfix database for virtual domains/virtual users08:06
sorenWell, you probably need to teach dovecot about postfixadmin's user database, so it'll look in the right place for their mail spool (and for authentication info).08:07
sorenI've never used postfixadmin, so I haven't a clue.08:07
luckyoneyeah, I specified passwd <file> and user <file> where file is /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf08:08
sorenThat's not going to work.08:09
sorenAt least I don't think so.08:09
sorenEr..08:09
sorenSorry.08:09
sorenYes, it might.08:09
* soren just got out of bed and is a bit confused08:09
luckyoneyeah, it is supposed to... I am confused as to why dovecot isn't making directories for my users08:10
luckyoneor maybe why postfixadmin isn't08:10
sorenMaking directories?08:10
sorenWhen you do what?08:10
luckyonein /home/vmail/<domain>/<user>08:11
luckyonewhen I create the mailbox using postfixadmin08:11
luckyoneseems like it is just creating the entry in the database08:11
sorenIt's not dovecot's responsibility to create the user's mailbox.08:14
sorenSend the user a test mail (which I recommend anyway) and postfix should create it for you.08:14
luckyonehow do I do that from the cli?08:17
luckyonepostfix doesn't seem to be receiving mail...08:17
sorenmail newuser@domain.com08:17
luckyonePERM_FAILURE: SMTP Error (state 13): 553 sorry, relaying denied from your location [209.85.132.241]08:18
sorenFrom localhost?!?08:18
sorenYou've got worse problems that dovecot not creating mailboxes then :)08:19
luckyonefrom gmail...a08:19
sorenJust do it from the mail server.08:19
luckyoneI don't have mail installed - I thought postfix would be what I am using as my MTA08:19
sorenIt probably is.08:20
sorenNo mail or mailx installed?08:20
sorenJust install mailx. is that a problem?08:20
luckyonenot especially - but I think I am going to get some sleep and start fresh tomorrow08:21
luckyonethanks for your help08:21
* luckyone bows in appreciation to soren 08:21
luckyonebuenos noches amigo08:21
sorennp :)08:22

luckyonewhen trying to connect dovecot to mysql, does the default dovecot package not have mysql support in17:57
Nafalloluckyone: look at the depends and you'll have your answer17:59
luckyoneNafallo: well - I ran dovecot --build-options and saw that it was infact built with support for mysql17:59
luckyoneNafallo: however - it does not seem to like driver = mysql in my /etc/dovecot/dovecot-mysql.conf file18:00
Nafallowell, I use postgresql18:00
Nafalloand the file would be dovecot-sql.conf surely?18:01
luckyonewell, it is whatever you name it18:05
luckyoneyou define what file you want to use in /etc/postfix/main.cf18:06
luckyoneor /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf rather18:06
NafalloI use the default :-)18:46
zuldovecot has postgresql support doesnt it?18:48

ScottKlamont: You should won'tfix that bug (291288).  They should use a policy server instead.20:11

* lamont was afk21:11
ScottKNo problem.21:12
lamontScottK: you could have tagged it +wontfix yourself.. I'd have been ok with that.21:41
lamontand 2.5.0~rc2-1 is in experimental21:41
ScottKOK.  I figured that was up to the Maintainer to decide.21:41
* ScottK remembers for the future.21:41
lamontScottK: it is. :-)21:42
lamontyou're my defacto SPF maintainer-guy, you see....21:42
ScottKOK.  Makes sense.21:42
ScottKAny more SPF stuff, I'll just deal with it then.21:42

puboHi all22:39
puboanybody has configured Bind9?22:39
andolpubo: Just ask your question :)22:43
pubooki, I've installed dhcp-server v3 and bind9. I'd like bind9 to search in dhcpd files (dhcpd.leases) or something like that, to assign DNS to clients dynamicly22:45
puboSo from any other client I could ping it without given IP. (ping client1, ping client2, ...)22:45
puboandol, do you understand what I want to mean? (bad english)22:46
andolpubo: Yes, but not a compination I've tried myself. Right now I'm thinking on whatever I think it is a bad idea or not :-)22:47
puboI'd like to have something like in windows networks but without having to edit manually DNS files...22:49
puboUhm.. I thinl I got it! I'm going to test...22:52
