hi
i am using qmailtoaster with dovecot version 2
mailbox format is maildir
i have a domain with around 5000 users which are distributed over 2 servers
webmail (squirrelmail) runs using dovecot v2 is being used from server number one
server number 2 had all the data stored in it and also has pop and smtp running from it. i am not using dovecot for pop as yet
on the server with dovecot i get such errors in the log file
access to data on server number 2 is via nfs
on server number 1 i get errors as such Error: fcntl(read-lock) locking failed for file Input/output error squirrelmail gives error imap connection closed and i am not able to login
so i set the parameters as such in the dovecot conf file and the error stopped
mmap_disable=yes dotlock_use_excl = yes lock_method = dotlock
can somebody please advise me if the above is correct ?
or is it preferred to use fcntl with lockd (note that my mailbox is maildir format)
thanks very much for your help
