Hi,
Sorry for late mail. I had lost control of the server.

I tried debugging the checkpassword, but couldn't do it successfully.

# cat run
#!/bin/sh
exec softlimit -m 4000000 envdir ./env tcpserver -vRH 64.34.193.249 1103 \
  /var/qmail/bin/qmail-popup dyn.idgpd.com \
    cvm-checkpassword cvm-pwfile sh -c '
      echo "login: $USER: $TCPREMOTEIP" >&7
      cd /etc/.services/dyn/root
      /command/setlock data.cdb \
      tinydyndns-update ${USER}.dyn.idgpd.com $TCPREMOTEIP >&7 2>&1
      cd /etc/.services/dyn/pop
      exec /var/qmail/bin/qmail-pop3d Maildir
    ' 2>&1 7>&1

# cat passwd
foo:foo:10208:10208::/etc/.services/dyn/pop:/bin/false

# mconnect 64.34.193.249 1103
+OK <[email protected]>
user foo
+OK
pass foo
-ERR unable to write pipe


Any ideas what is wrong?
