    Hi,

    I'm hopping maybe someone can point out what I'm missing here. I'm running debian sarge and have packages postfix, courier-imap, authlib ... from testing. When I setup everything to run on mysql with the default port everything is great. However I would like to run mysql on port 3308.

    It appears that something is wrong with the way I'm trying to tell everything to use a different port. It doesn't appear that I'm getting any errors from post fix, but If I try to authenicate I'm getting this error in my logs:

    I'm thinking that its still trying to use the default port, but I'm not finding something more spacific to see where the connection is trying to be made. Here are my config files, maybe you'll see something wrong with them?

    authmysqlrc:
    MYSQL_SERVER localhost
    MYSQL_USERNAME mail_admin
    MYSQL_PASSWORD <pw>
    MYSQL_PORT 3308
    MYSQL_DATABASE email
    MYSQL_USER_TABLE users
    MYSQL_CRYPT_PWFIELD password
    #MYSQL_CLEAR_PWFIELD password
    MYSQL_UID_FIELD 5000
    MYSQL_GID_FIELD 5000
    MYSQL_LOGIN_FIELD email
    MYSQL_HOME_FIELD "/home/vmail"
    MYSQL_MAILDIR_FIELD CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',1),'/')
    #MYSQL_NAME_FIELD
    MYSQL_SOCKET /var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock

    smpt.conf
    pwcheck_method: saslauthd
    mech_list: plain login
    allow_plaintext: true
    auxprop_plugin: mysql
    sql_hostnames: 127.0.0.1:3308
    sql_user: email_admin
    sql_passwd: <pw>
    sql_database: email
    sql_select: select password from users where email = '%u'

    /etc/pam.d/smtp:
    auth required pam_mysql.so user=email_admin passwd=<pw> host=127.0.0.1:3308 db=email table=users usercolumn=email passwdcolumn=password crypt=1
    account sufficient pam_mysql.so user=email_admin passwd=<pw> host=127.0.0.1:3308 db=email table=users usercolumn=email passwdcolumn=password crypt=1

    mysql_virtual_* (these all look basicly like this):
    user = email_admin
    password = <pw>
    dbname = email
    table = domains
    select_field = 'virtual'
    where_field = domain
    hosts = 127.0.0.1:3308

    I'd love to hear if I'm wrong on how I went about trying to set the port number somewhere.
    Thanks
    Bryan

    Did you restart all services?
    What's the output of
    Code:
    netstat -tap
    ?

    Yep restarted all services. I know its mostlikly just something that isn't configured right.

    Here is the output from netstat -tap:
    Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State PID/Program name
    tcp 0 0 *:imaps *:* LISTEN -
    tcp 0 0 *:pop3s *:* LISTEN -

    Looks ok. I think the problem might be the way you added the new MySQL port to the configuration files. Unfortunately I couldn't find any information about how to do it if you use another than the standard MySQL port... :(
