Comment out ‘nodetach’ and put in a new line with your first IP address followed by a colon.
That works for me running 10.2.3.

How do I start/stop AMS from the command line? I suppose I can do this all in stunnel then, and use the firewall to stop AMS from getting the connections on its own from the standard ports.

[quote:57e142168c=”MacTroll”]It works well, as you found out with POP, but not so much with IMAP, for heavy IMAP sites I usually suggest to pipe the mail to port 627 and have the Apple Mail Server listen for it there.

Also you can try playing around with the connection timeouts on the IMAP server. Dropping these down quite low should force a reconnect which should pull in the new mail again.

Ok, I’ve tried both, but neither work. We has OSX 10.1.x that we upgraded. Applemailserver broke, but started working when I updated it. Now, I’ve installed postfix, and switched to Other Mail Trnasport on port 627. I’ve tried in postfix both mailbox_transport=smtp:[127.0.0.1]:627 and leaving it commented out.

With it in, it give a cant connect to port 627 error in mail.log. With it commented out, it works fine, putting mail in /var/mail. However… ams never gets it. I can send locally to locally, and the email ends up in /var/mail. I can send from a remote account to a local account, and it ends up in /var/mail. Now if I couild only get AMS to get the mail and pass it on to the email clients it would be great.

Please give me a christmas pressent, and tell me how to fix this. 😕

Thanks

Follow up note:

mod_auth_apple is a customized module of the normal mod_auth and by disabling Apple’s own to get Marc’s PHP module to run, you effectively disable the ability to use standard .htaccess files for directory protection, etc.

It turns out that the mod_auth.so is present in the expected directory and if you add the following lines in [b:7d0734b941]/etc/httpd/httpd.conf[/b:7d0734b941](I put mine right after the commented out Apple directives), you can enable functionality again.

[b:7d0734b941]LoadModule auth_module /usr/libexec/httpd/mod_auth.so[/b:7d0734b941]

and

[b:7d0734b941]AddModule mod_auth.c[/b:7d0734b941]

Running a [b:7d0734b941]sudo httpd configtest[/b:7d0734b941] indicates that nothing conflicts and the server starts and functions properly so far.

Do note that there is a duplicate entry under Section 6. ACGI Server Configuration of the following:

[b:7d0734b941]LoadModule php4_module libexec/httpd/libphp4.so[/b:7d0734b941]

if you’ve also enabled Squirrelmail.

Cheers.

[quote:7d0734b941=”legacyb4″]…commented out the following from inside /etc/httpd/httpd.conf

[b#LoadModule apple_auth_module /usr/libexec/httpd/mod_auth_apple.so[/b]

as well as

[b:7d0734b941]#AddModule mod_auth_apple.c[/b:7d0734b941]

since Marc wrote that this module needed to be disabled.

[quote:478f1fa420=”patricklang”]well, I couldn’t find anyplace to select a certificate or even import one.

I’m checking to see if its available in 10.2’s ipsec implementation.

I use Smoothwall corporate w/ smoothtunnel for the vpn/firewall, and use certificate authentication for all the road warriors.[/quote:478f1fa420]

Are the following lines (from my racoon.conf file) relevant?
# racoon will look for certificate file in the directory,
# if the certificate/certificate request payload is received.
path certificate “/etc/cert” ;

[quote:60893700aa=”JoseyWales”]Do you think there’s any likelihood of getting this to work with a WatchGuard firewall?[/quote:60893700aa]

equinux has released a new version of VPN Tracker which should work with WatchGuard.

[quote:cd02659715=”legacyb4″]I had the same problem, but found that the problem lay in:

Include /private/etc/[b:cd02659715][u:cd02659715]httpd[/u:cd02659715][/b:cd02659715]/httpd_squirremail.conf

You probably left out the “d” in the pathname.

Cheers.

Thanks that’s [b:cd02659715]exactly[/b:cd02659715] what happened. I copied the instructions verbatim from the article here on afp548.com; if you’re listening: fix the typo.

thanks for an excellent site.

OK, thanks! I’ll do some looking into this. I’ve found someone who’s very familiar with Unix and has done lots of VPNs and should be able to help me.

Can you (further) specify the values of the LinkSys configuration? Such as:

1. What does Key Management need to be set for – Auto or Manual?

Also is there any way to troubleshoot the connection with logs on either the Mac or the Linksys? There is a VPN log on the linksys, but it’s a little vague.

Thanks!

please let us know the changes you have done to racoon.conf, to make it work with the Linksys and the settings on the Linksys.

Could you please elaborate on how I would do that?

Is there any update on when SSHpasskeys or perhaps a walk through on how to use SSH keys in the command line with Vapor will be available? I loved the program, but just can’t use it now that I am on 10.2

I had the same issues as the original poster.

To get past the screen going black during install I had to:
1. wipe the partition (I used the Disk Utility on the Jaguar install CD)
2. *Successfully* install an older version of server (10.0.4 in my case)
3. let Jaguar Server *attempt* to upgrade the previous installation (it failed)
4. reboot and using Jaguar Install CD Disk Utility, wipe (not partition) the partition.
5. switch back to the Installer and let it install a ‘New’ OS X Server installation

This (after 3 days of trying) finally got me through the installation. I also duped the Install CD and used the copy – maybe made a difference, I don’t know, but it was the only install out of about 16 attempts that worked.

To get past the Assistant hanging:
1. removed my en01 ethernet card
2. removed the original 64MB RAM stick and 1 of my 256MB sticks, leaving 1 256MB
3. reset the machine using the CUDO reset button

I did all of this removing stuff over several attempts…

Hope this helps,

We are using mac OSX 2.x and are having problems with windows 2000 clients joining a domain where the OS X server is a PDC.

Have you found out if there are any changes in the documentation published here: [url]https://www.afp548.com/Articles/system/sambapdc.html[/url] ?

Our problem is getting a windows 2000 client to join the domain. We always get the error “Authentication failed … ” on the client.
