How to change password for email account?

Hi all,


After to try some configurations to solve the problem with password change, I did not get success.

The users have access its accounts of email, send and receive messages without no problem.

I need that the mailuser has accepted the access of the username. I used a tip of cryptic and Torfinn Nome and ./W so that the squirrelmail has accepted the access through the format [email protected], but if the user try to have access mailuser with domain.com_username is shown "Error: Password error: Authentication failed."

Some tip?

Thanks in advance.

 

Till, what I want is that the user (owner of the email account) can modify its password without the intervention of the ISP support. It will be requested to have access the URL http://www.mydomain.com:81/mailuser/, to insert its username and the password initially (created for the ISP support) and to modify for a password of its preference.

 

thanks for the reply.

but if the user try to have access http://www.mydomain.com:81/mailuser/ with domain.com_username is shown "Error: Password error: Authentication failed." and if the user try ho have access http://www.mydomain.com:81/mailuser/ with [email protected] is shown "Error: User Unknown".

 

If I remember correctly it must be the username as specified in the /etc/passwd file.

 

This exactly, I am using the username created in /etc/passwd (domain.com_username) and I am shown the error: "Error: Password error: Authentication failed.", but the password and the username are correct.

Perhaps this occurs because I am using the var [DOMAIN] in the general configuration of the server. (eg. domain.com_username), but not yet I found the error.

This is structure:

#cat /etc/passwd
...
vialivre.net_falecom:x:10002:10001:Fale Conosco:/var/www/web1/user/vialivre.net_falecom:/bin/false

[root@ispconfig]# ls /var/www/www.vialivre.net/user/vialivre.net_falecom/
Maildir web

 

I found this log in /var/log/secure:

Jun 7 10:35:35 ispconfig dovecot-auth: pam_succeed_if(dovecot:auth): error retrieving information about user _vialivre.net_falecom

How I configure so that underscore of the beginning is not passed to authenticate?

 

The way that I configured in dovecont.conf ( auth_username_format = “%Ld_%Ln” ) and in /squirrelmail/config/config.php ( I removed the line: $plugins [] = “vlogin”; ), the authentication in the squirrelmail and pop3 function perfectly, but for the authentication in http://www.domain.com:81/mailuser/ the underscore in the front of the username it does not allow the authentication of correct form.

I don't know how to solve this. If anybody it will be able to help, I am very grateful.

 

Did you activate "Mailuser Login" under ISP Manager -> Sites -> "Your Domain" -> Basis ?

 

hi torusturtle.

Yes, I activate Mailuser Login. The problem I posted in previous post.

 

I cannot affirm that it was the way most efficient, but I solved the problem configuring:
/etc/dovecot.conf
auth_username_format = “%n”

/home/admispconfig/ispconfig/web/squirrelmail/config/config.php

$plugins [] = “vlogin”;

With these configurations and using domain.com_username the access to mailuser, pop3 and the squirrelmail is working.

For any access of the user (pop3, squirrelmail and usermail), it will have to use the format domain.com_username and the format [email protected] will not be used.

Thanks for all.
