Ubuntu Servers :: New Users Can't Log Into SquirrelMail?
Jun 29, 2010
My problem is quite simple, when I set up squirrelmail I only had one user on the server, and now that I have created new users, I can not log in to their accounts via squirrelmail I am using Maildir System is 10.04 server, running postfix and dovecot. I origionaly set up 'remote' as a user, I can send and recive mail on that account and log into squirrelmail
any new accounts can send email to remote(via outlook/thunderbird), to be seen in Squirrelmail, but get an invalid username/password when I try to log into squirrelmail in short, new accounts can not log into squirrelmail

running squirrelmail, postfix and dovecot, I filter out mails which are spam into a spambox and non-spam into the inbox but by default, the user is not subscribed to the spambox and therefore, the spambox is not visible to the user, how can I make it such that each time a user is created he or she is automatically subscribed to the spambox?

I set up a mail server today. Everything works except I can't access the damn squirrelmail web interface from the internet.
I followed this guide here: [URL]
I can access http://192.168.0.50/squirrelmail just fine from a computer on my local network.
*BUT*
When I access http://mywanip/squirrelmail, i get a connection timeout.
When I access http://mywanip, I get the standard Apache "IT WORKS!" Page. (Rules out port forwarding)
According to the guide, that should allow me to access squirrelmail from the internet on my server. Its as if Squirrelmail is only available on my local interface and not on my wan interface? How do I check?

I have setup a postfix + courier + squirrelmail email configuration. I can get to the squirrelmail login page and run its test and it said everything was fine. After that I am stuck. What is the username and password or if it is not created, how do I create it?

I can see new mails via ssh in /var/mail.What could be the possible reason for this?

I'm running Fedora 12 on x86_64. I've installed squirrelmail, along with dovecot on my office server, and cannot access it through http://localhost/webmail. I have followed all the configuration steps I could find (including http://www.server-world.info/en/note...12&p=httpd&f=7).
I know that everything else is working (I can send and receive mail, access IMAP mailboxes, webserver is working), browsing to
http://localhost/webmail
just gives me
"Problem loading page"
in Firefox. Sometimes, however the message is "Unable to connect."
I will add that I already tried installing Squirrelmail on another (i686) machine and had exactly the same problem.
/var/log/httpd/error_log says:
File does not exist: /var/www/html/squirrelmail
This makes it seem like aliasing is not working somehow.

What is the fastest setup to do this? All I want is an internally authenticated webmail server that other servers can send mail to for collection of test emails. Don't need LDAP or anything fancy, just a internal LAN only webmail server. I've got Squirrelmail setup on Ubuntu Server and can't get authentication setup with Squirrelmail and every tutorial I read is way over complicated or has nothing on how to authenticate Squirrelmail with internal, system users.

I succeeded to install Postfix on my box. I also installed mailman.I don't understand what mailman do. It's similar to SquirrelMail? If no can you guys recommend a web interface mail client like SquirrelMail?

I'm having problems with emails containing HTML content. When Google downloads the email messages via POP3 from my squirrelmail server, the message does not display using HTML. I'm not sure if this is Google's fault or Squirrelmail's fault, but I've never had problems before on other servers running the same script and using squirrelmail. If I login to squirrelmail, I have the option to download the email message as an attachment. The attachment, if opened by my local browser, shows up as HTML content, and it is properly formatted. However, I'm using Google to download my emails and file them under my Gmail account. After Gmail downloads the messages, it shows up like this:
From
To admin@domainRemoved.com
Date Sat, Jul 30, 2011 at 6:07 PM
Subject Pending Registration
Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1
From: Name Removed <admin@domainRemoved.com>
Message-Id: <20110730234302.6B6FEDC08BA@eric-desktop>
Date: Sat, 30 Jul 2011 17:43:02 -0600 (MDT)
<p><b> After registering your client via your server, please visit the following URL to send them confirmation: </b></p>
I really need it to show up properly once Gmail downloads the messages, as it takes a long time to login to Squirrel mail and download each message as an attachment. My PHP Code Headers Look like this:
$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . " ";
$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . " ";
$headers .= "From: $uname <$email>";
Someone suggested that I remove the from my script. I did, and now the email shows a from sender as www-data www-data@domain.com. Before, the from field showed up as empty. However, my PHP script is designed to change the sender's information to the clients that contact me. Thus, if customer A contacts me, the email should be from customer A <custa@whatever.com>. However, it's not being changed by the PHP script. It works on every other server but mine. I think my postfix configuration isn't setup properly? What needs to be configured on it?

I'm configuring a server but at this time I can't send mail. I tried using the PHP mail() function and it didn't work. Webmin says I have no mail configured. I'll be the only user and mail recipient. I've used Squirrelmail and Roundcube before and liked them.
Do I need to install Postfix in order to user Squirrelmail or Roundcube? How should I set up mail?
Here's my setup:
10.04 LTS Server edition
Webmin 1.520
Apache 2.x
MySQL 5.x
PHP 5.x

If I want to add Windows & Mac users as Samba users, must I first add them all as Ubuntu users? If so, since none of the other users will actually be working on the Ubuntu Server, how do I disable the other non-admin users on the Ubuntu Server login screen. I am using Webmin to administer some server settings, and command line for others.

I wonder if other people have this problem. sometimes I need to duplicate most or all of a server from one machine to another. part where I most tend to have issues is with recreating the users. Sometimes the UIDs don't match up because of differences between the two systems, which gives funky results, like files owned by the wrong user.
Or, sometimes, I just need to create the same 10 users on x number of machines, and it's tedious to do this 10x times. Plus, then, if you need to change a password or delete a user, you have to do it x times.Any recommendations on how to centralize users/auth?

I have created my own server with php, mysql and pma. I want to creat users and disable ssh so they can only user their username and password to get access to /home/<username> with a ftp program.

I have a ubuntu server 8.10 running on my dedicated server. How do I allocate IPs for users ? I have 3 IPs and 3 users running, I want each user to use a Single unique IP for all inbound and outbound traffic Also disallow a user from using the IP other then the one allocated to him. I tried to work out a solution using Iptables, but it does not work I suppose

I need to setup a simple server to make available Quickbooks accounting data to just a few stations. Can this be done with Ubuntu desktop version? Would it be recommended due to the small number of users? Or should I use a server platform?I have never used Linux before but have used command line interfaces and am looking forward to it. I installed Ubuntu Server 9.10 32 bit and have even gone as far as logging in. Amazing I know. I installed it on a separate disk so I can switch between Windows and Linux startup disks at boot via cmos.as a first step into linux would like to be able to browse the web from Ubuntu Server 9.10 if the Server edition is in fact the route I should be taking.I would also like a good source to learn not only command line commands but also all the stuff that I see after the commands, you know, all the stuff with - signs all over the place.

I'm using vsftpd on my server. When I connect (using file-zilla) from other computers on the same network I can't download any files. I can upload, create directories, and delete stuff, but I can't download. I've disabled anonymous access and enabled local user log-in. My /etc/vsftpd.conf
Code:
# Example config file /etc/vsftpd.conf
#
# The default compiled in settings are fairly paranoid. This sample file
# loosens things up a bit, to make the ftp daemon more usable.
# Please see vsftpd.conf.5 for all compiled in defaults.

I have two ubuntu 10.04 64-bit servers running samba (3.4.7) and openLDAP (2.4.21). The LDAP directory is successfully replicating between the two servers. These servers also serve as LDAP servers for sudo, pam, nss, and other services for a dozen servers without issues. The BDC samba is configured to use itself for LDAP. I connected to the BDC using the samba ldap credentials and verified I could a) see the Computer object b) read NTPassword and LMPassword. The workstations can authenticate to the domain successfully against the PDC. If a workstation boots and connects to the BDC, they login fails with:
Code:

installed Ubuntu Server Edition and I've found that my first user has a bash history and I can turn on a coloured prompt by editing my .bashrc etc but new users don't have that!I did : useradd -d /home/newb -m newbpasswd newband the correct looking .bashrc file appears to be in /home/newb but it is being ignore by bash when logged in as newb. Instead I am presented with just a dollar prompt instead of "newb@server"how can I sort out my users with proper prompts?

I am moving a webserver from a Gutsy to Lucid server. The webserver works fine, but I am having a problem with the users. I moved the home directories, along with passwd, group, shadow, and gshadow. The users can login fine, and their home directories are fine. The problem is when they try to logout, they get
$logout
-sh: logout: not found

GUI for several thousand simultaneous users. I know this post may at first seem a little out of place here when you begin to read it but please bear with me and I think you will understand why I am seeking feedback here. The company I work for (whose name I am withholding for now) is currently running a little over 5,000 Linux servers. Each of these servers has a minimum of 500 users, some as many as 3,000 users on them during a business day.
These servers are serious pieces of hardware. They have hot swappable raid arrays, redundant well most everything is redundant on them, frankly. Our conversion to Linux took place about 8 years ago. We have a proprietary database and development environment that was originally built in the 1970s. All but the most recent applications run in this proprietary environment, whereas our newer applications are using PostgreSQL and executables that are delivered using Apache web server and run inside each users Windows Explorer session on their local PC.
Really, our situation is rather typical of any organization that has legacy software that still gets the job done - with the possible exception of the **massive** number of total users we keep up-and-running every day. more, our next Linux servers are expected to support somewhere between 6,000-8,000 users [exact figure yet to be determined]. You may ask this is all very interesting but why are you posting this here?.
I am researching alternate ways of presenting attractive and functional GUI to users of Linux servers. I find the Ubuntu GUI to be attractive and very functional. the user input these forums get. Finally I am looking for points of view outside my own organization so I don't fall into the 'but we don't do it that way here' mental trap and miss a really great concept.
I have an idea about how to solve this growing challenge, and I want to present it here for your review and comments. For those who might think I have never worked on systems of this size; I can't imagine my opinion would be valuable remember this: The Ark was built by a passionate volunteer; The Titanic was built by paid professionals.....

How do I migrate my user list to a new server installation? I thought that just copying /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow would be enough. I recently tried upgrading a lightweight bazaar server to 11.04, and the upgrade crashed. I had to perform a new installation of Ubuntu to recover operation of the system. I installed on a different hard drive. I had a dozen other people with user logins, so that they can get or modify bazaar repositories.
The new installation is running, and I can read all of the files on my old system's / drive. I tried copying the /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow files onto my new /etc -- but that did not seem to work. (When I looked using the System->Administration->Users-and-Groups GUI tool, there were no users visible, so I restored the old files.) What I intended to do was to clone the /etc and /home trees over to the new system. What am I missing?

I have a server setup with all my web development stuff in /var/www and in several sub-folders within that. (each project having it's own folder)It works great with one FTP account. But recently I've been getting help on a projects from a buddy of mine that freelances, and have made him an FTP user account as well. All is fine, except for when he tries to edit a file and gets a permissions error.
Here's the issue, I don't want us to have the same FTP login, but all the files are currently owned by my user name. So, when he logs in to edit a file, he can't because I'm the owner, and the files are set to 744. Will I cause any harm by adding both users to the same group (www-data) and chmod'ing the files to 775 so that we can both access and modify the files?

I'm currently running a small server using 9.10 and I wondered if using groups was a possible route in order to keep users away from the bulk of the file system and keep them in locked their home directories.
What I planned to do is use a group named 'allowsystemfiles' to be added to admin accounts, then to set parts of the file system to that group, along with the permissions 0760 to keep non-admin users out.
Is is a good idea or will this hose my system?

Quick question - I would like to know how to prevent users from accessing directories above the directory used for ftp. I'm running proftpd and I'm able to connect outside of my LAN, however all user accounts can click "Up to higher level directoy" and access everything, all the way up to the root directory. How can I make this unaccessable/not visible to users connecting to my server, allowing access only to the directories and subdirectories I have specified?

I've got a Samba server (CentOS)(I swear all my non-work boxes are Ubuntu) that has been working fine in our Active Directory environment for a long time, now that Windows 7 has been forced upon us, we've noticed that Win 7 users aren't able to authenticate to this server unless they access it using the IP address, e.g. \192.168.1.22. We've tried the different Windows 7 registry hacks and nothing makes a difference. We were advised to update Samba and we did to 3.3.8. However, this being a virtual machine, upgrading a clone of this machine did work, the configuration was identical, except the hostname
