I have been trying to run the imap service from xinetd,
however I just get the following (if I telnet to the port)
[root@redhat-server /root]# telnet engarde 143
Trying 172.20.1.25...
Connected to engarde.
Escape character is '^]'.
Connection closed by foreign host.
THis is from the /var/log/auth.log
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[600]: START: imap pid=603 from=172.20.1.30
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[603]: USERID: imap OTHER :root
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[600]: EXIT: imap status=0 pid=603
duration=0(sec)
(also mirrored in login.log)
And from /var/log/messages
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[600]: START: imap pid=603 from=172.20.1.30
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[603]: USERID: imap OTHER :root
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[603]: execv( /usr/sbin/simap ) failed: Bad
address (errno = 14)
May 21 17:19:18 engarde xinetd[600]: EXIT: imap status=0 pid=603
duration=0(sec)
I am wrong in just running the simap without stunnel? Will that work? - is it the WU-Imap service?
I am using the following config file located in /etc/xinetd.d
[root@engarde xinetd.d]# more imap
# default: off
# description: The IMAP service allows remote users to access their mail
using
# an IMAP client such as Mutt, Pine, fetchmail, or Netscape
# Communicator.
service imap
{
disable = no
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/simap
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
}
What I am trying to achieve is a webmail front end running on the engarde
box.
Can anyone help?
Please ;-)
