[Dovecot] help with static userdb
Hey,
This may be a dumb question... I'm trying to set up 1.0 with a static userdb, and I'm getting stuck. I have:
userdb static {
args = uid=500 gid=500 home=/domains/%d/%n
}When I attempt to log in as, say, kyle@memoryhole.net (via telnet, so I *know* I'm logging in as that user), the debug log says that it thinks my home directory is "/domains//kyle".
I even tried, just to check what might be going on:
args = uid=500 gid=500 home=/domains/%u/%d/%nIt then thought my home directory was "/domains/kyle//kyle".
Can anyone help me? Where might that be getting cleared?

Your passdb drops the domain out. This is usually caused by SQL password_query:
The "user" column is needed to make sure the username gets used with
exactly
the same casing as it's in the database. Note that if you store
username and
domain in separate fields, you most likely want to return a
combination of
them as the "user" column, otherwise the domain gets stripped.

Ahh, gotcha. I was actually using checkpassword, and I'm not sure how to get the domain back out of what it returns.
I just switched over to using ldap directly (my checkpassword program was an ldap frontend), and that seems to have fixed the problem.
