 |
|
OK, I have a fairly new box setup with exim/procmail/pop3/imap, and am having some weird issues with imap and pop3.
If I connect via imap or pop3 from the box itself, everything works fine. But as soon as I try to connect from external, I get the following in auth.log:
| Code: |
Jan 6 21:43:52 nod xinetd[1131]: START: pop-3 pid=26634 from=xx.xx.xx.xx
Jan 6 21:43:52 nod xinetd[26634]: FAIL: pop-3 address from=xx.xx.xx.xx
|
and
| Code: |
Jan 6 21:46:10 nod xinetd[1131]: START: imap2 pid=27278 from=xx.xx.xx.xx
Jan 6 21:46:10 nod xinetd[27278]: FAIL: imap2 address from=xx.xx.xx.xx
Jan 6 21:46:10 nod xinetd[1131]: EXIT: imap2 pid=27278 duration=0(sec)
|
Here is my xinetd settings for both.
imap:
| Code: |
service imap2
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/imapd
log_on_success += DURATION USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}
|
ipop3:
| Code: |
service pop-3
{
socket_type = stream
wait = no
user = root
server = /usr/sbin/ipop3d
log_on_success += USERID
log_on_failure += USERID
disable = no
}
|
I have no clue what is going on...can anyone lend a hand?
Thanks.

Ok, after digging around for a few hours, I figure it out just a few minutes after I post 
For those that may end up with the same problem I had, the solutions was to modify the /etc/xinetd.conf file, and disable the "only_form = localhost" entry.
Cheers!
