Mail Server Problems PAM MYSQL for OX6HE [ISSUE]

[svensen]

If you use libnss_mysql and/or mysql lookups in postfix,
you should also increase max_connections in my.cnf to something >1000.
Default on debian is 100

There are configuration values that are useful with libnss_mysql:
in User.properties
UID_NUMBER_START=1500

and in Group.properties
GID_NUMBER_START=1500

This helps tracking group members for system functions.

You have to set those vales before creating the context.

If you already have a context (1) and existing users you can do

/opt/open-xchange/sbin/changeuser -A oxadmin -P topsecret -c 1 -u username -p newPassForUser --passwordmech {CRYPT}

for every user.
You actually have to type the curly braces

Hello,

My email server don't work because authentification failed.

After many hours of work, i found the problem.

OX6HE default password crypt his "SHA" instead of "CRYPT" in the other version (OXEE).

So PAM_MYSQL don't support SHA in the release 0.7RC.

Before initialize OX database you must change crypt system in the config this.

/opt/open-xchange/etc/admindaemon/User.properties

# possible values: CRYPT / SHA
DEFAULT_PASSWORD_MECHANISM=CRYPT

Now enjoy
