Plesk qmail without full PSA

Unread post by greyman56 »

Hi all,

I am looking for a way to install the plesk version of qmail and courier imap without the whole PSA control panel environment.

Does anyone know how to do this?

We want to run a psa compatible qmail setup on an existing but fairly standard CentOS4 box for some time until the domains are moved onto their own PSA run box. This way software I have written for the PSA qmail-spp can work in this box in the short term.

In an effort to discover if this was possible, I have installed psa-selinux, psa-qmail, courier-imap, psa-courier-imap-add, and psa-qmail-rblsmtpd rpms from an 8.1 release of PSA onto a test CentOS4 box.

I had to remove relaylock to get anything happening on the smtp side. After that I have pop3 problems and the logs say:
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: Connection, ip=[10.1.1.100]
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: IMAP connect from @ [10.1.1.100]Unable to open admin password file: No such file or directory
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: System error 2: No such file or directory
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: Unable to connect to the mysql database
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: Unable to connect to the mysql database
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d:
Mar 3 16:41:27 jenshen2 pop3d: System error 2: No such file or directory

So OK, this seems to come from the "authpsa" courier module. I guess that means that courier is tied into authenticating via the PSA database.

Does anyone know if the courier-imap can be told to auth from the /var/qmail/users/poppasswd file only? This would probably do the trick for me.

Any other suggestions?

Thanks
Graham
