------=_Part_41790_13020935.1159388669094 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1; format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline I installed checkpassword using the rpm for my distro, and it works fine for the root user. I can run /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup blah /bin/checkpassword pwd and if I put in a valid user and password, it will login fine. However, if I try to run this as a non-root user, I always get "-ERR authorization failed". Additionally, if I try to telnet to my server on port 110, even when I put in the correct credentials, I get the authorization failed message. Because of this, I can't get my mail via pop. Thanks, Neil Stickels ------=_Part_41790_13020935.1159388669094 Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Content-Disposition: inline <br>I installed checkpassword using the rpm for my distro, and it works fine for the root user.
