The basic configuration works fine. We are able to connect with the client, read and write mail. *FANTASTIC*. It was pretty painless. Now, I'm trying to establish APOP. I have read the APOP installation instructions, followed them to a tee. When I try to use popauth to init, I get an error saying missing file - *??*. Then if I try to add a user, I get an error indicating something about not having permissions to open the db. When I look the db has been created. In addition, I am in the root account when perfoming the install. I am specifiing the account "POP" as the pop auth account. The db is to be located in the /etc directory. I did a search on the net, and found some people who reported having the same problem. Unfortunately, I found no reference to what the solution may be. If anyone has seen this b4, I would greatly appreciate any input. JEEZ, I hope I'm not goofing something simple up. In addition, I would like suggestions on a good pop password change server. I have references to a couple, but what is the *standard* used? Many of the accounts on the system are not login accounts. Thanks a lot for any help, -Wyatt To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
