paul Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 although I've just checked my old pam.d/imap from when I was doing system auth .. and it looks the same ... go figure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddmcse Posted January 13, 2006 Report Share Posted January 13, 2006 not true .. a properly setup host will allow smtp sending, and controller spammer thruogh other means. I have smtp wide open to the world, and have smtp-auth and pop-before-smtp setup so that spammers can't use me. SMTP AUTH allows relaying for senders who have successfully authenticated themselves. The pop-before-smtp project is a simple daemon written in Perl, to allow email relay control based on successful POP or IMAP logins it's still relaying you've allowed it by login and so, it's not open to the whole world . if email is sent by joe@blow.com not on your lan and uses your smtp server "smtp.relayaway.com" and it's addressed to you@guessedit.com...... it's been relayed . Relaying email will get you on a reject list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veletron Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 (edited) Hi Now spent 24 hours working on this. I am sure its some kind of an auth delay, but 24 hours is enough time to spend on an issue that should never have existed in the first place. In a last ditch attempt to find out whats going on, I reinstalled MDK 10.2 Download Ed, accepted all defaults. Same issue present. Even after having removed the stuff from xinitd.d/imap etc. Can only conclude that its a (serious) bug in mandriva 10.2 . I say serious because it makes imap unusable. Now... where's my windows CD...

ianw1974 Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 I've used 10.2 with IMAP/POP3 with/without SSL/TLS and had no issues with speed. Both IMAP and POP3 were perfectly fine. It might not even be these, but your network card, or other services, or something running that's causing the problem. Post output from: chkconfig --list so we can see what services your running. Also post output from: ifconfig -a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Also have you applied all updates to your machine?!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veletron Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 Tried it both without and with all the updates - same result. SSH login is also very slow (30 sec delay after entering password) Hardware is identical to my old MDK 9.1 hardware so unless they broke somet, that should not be the issue. I'll setup the other nic and disable the current one just in case. ifconfig -a : eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:08:54:38:A2:58 inet addr:192.168.20.2 Bcast:192.168.20.255 Mask:255.255.255.0 inet6 addr: fe80::208:54ff:fe38:a258/64 Scope:Link UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:14062 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:18902 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:1096791 (1.0 MiB) TX bytes:13921023 (13.2 MiB) Interrupt:17 Base address:0x4000 eth2 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-30-1B-AC-00-00-3D-44-00-00-00-00-00-00-00-00 UP BROADCAST RUNNING MULTICAST MTU:1500 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:1000 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) lo Link encap:Local Loopback inet addr:127.0.0.1 Mask:255.0.0.0 inet6 addr: ::1/128 Scope:Host UP LOOPBACK RUNNING MTU:16436 Metric:1 RX packets:290 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:290 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:23469 (22.9 KiB) TX bytes:23469 (22.9 KiB) sit0 Link encap:IPv6-in-IPv4 NOARP MTU:1480 Metric:1 RX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 frame:0 TX packets:0 errors:0 dropped:0 overruns:0 carrier:0 collisions:0 txqueuelen:0 RX bytes:0 (0.0 B) TX bytes:0 (0.0 B) chkconfig --list : [root@windermere named]# chkconfig --list acpi 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off acpid 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off alsa 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off atd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off crond 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off dm 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:on 6:off freshclam 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off haldaemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off harddrake 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off httpd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off keytable 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off kheader 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off mDNSResponder 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off messagebus 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off mysqld 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off named 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off netfs 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off netplugd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off network 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off nifd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off ntpd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off numlock 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off oki4daemon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off partmon 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off portmap 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off postfix 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off rawdevices 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off smb 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off sound 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off sshd 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off syslog 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off vncserver 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:off 4:off 5:off 6:off webmin 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off xfs 0:off 1:off 2:on 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off xinetd 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:on 5:on 6:off xinetd based services: cvs: off imap: on imaps: on ipop2: off ipop3: on pop3s: off rsync: off sshd-xinetd: on [root@windermere named]# Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 I'd be tempted to disable ipv6, that slows things down a lot. add this to /etc/modprobe.conf alias net-pf-10 off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 You can also delete sit0 files from /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts. These are the ipv6 configs, that you don't really need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veletron Posted January 14, 2006 Report Share Posted January 14, 2006 OK, tried different network controller, same problem... Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

veletron Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 What are your network cards? Make/model? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> RTL8139 and RTL8169 (Realtek) 8139 is the currently enabled one Nigel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted January 15, 2006 Report Share Posted January 15, 2006 One thing worth trying if you've not already. Realtek cards can have unstabled network connections. If you disable apic, this usually sorts it out, or at least has done every time for me and others I've helped. Go into System/Configuration/Configure Your Computer. Choose the Boot option, and then Boot Loader. There are three options, ACPI is the top one, followed by APIC and Local APIC. Disable APIC and then reboot, and see if it's any better for you. If not, then go back in and disable Local APIC as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
