Hi,

what are the following messages supposed to tell me and does this indicate a problem?


# systemctl status cyrus-imapd
[...]
master[3766]: unable to setsocketopt(IP_TOS): Operation not supported

That's cyrus-imapd itself failing and has nothing to do with Exim.

Well, it probably means that a socket option can not be set. That can mean that the socket can not be used at all or that the socket can be used just not as well.

That socket option makes it so that the TOS bit on all packets is being set. I don´t see how that would be required here, so maybe the socket works nonetheless.

Exim says it can not connect to the lmtp socket even when selinux doesn´t get in the way.  The configuration looks like this:


cyrus.conf (none of the two options work):

[...]
   # lmtp                cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="lmtp:127.0.0.1" prefork=4
   lmtpunix      cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=4
[...]

Providing just a snipped from the complete configuration of cyrus-imapd is insufficient.

It´s currently this:


# standard standalone server implementation


START {
# do not delete this entry!

  recover       cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r"

# this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE

  idled         cmd="idled"
}

# UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/lib/imap/sockets

SERVICES {
# add or remove based on preferences

# imap cmd="imapd" listen="127.0.0.1:imap" prefork=2

  imaps         cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=1
# pop3 cmd="pop3d" listen="pop3" prefork=3

# pop3s cmd="pop3d -s" listen="pop3s" prefork=1

  sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="gupta:sieve" prefork=0
# managesieve cmd="timsieved" listen="gupta:sieve" prefork=0

# sieve cmd="timsieved" listen="4190" prefork=1


# these are only necessary if receiving/exporting usenet via NNTP

# nntp cmd="nntpd" listen="nntp" prefork=3

# nntps cmd="nntpd -s" listen="nntps" prefork=1


# at least one LMTP is required for delivery

  lmtp          cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="lmtp" prefork=1
# lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd -a" listen="/var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=1

# this is only necessary if using notifications

notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/lib/imap/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
}

EVENTS {
# this is required

  checkpoint    cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30

# this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression,

# Sieve or NNTP

  delprune      cmd="cyr_expire -E 3" at=0400

# this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions

  tlsprune      cmd="tls_prune" at=0400
}


Apparently exim can not use the lmtp socket because of a permissions problem. Not using the socket works except that timsieved appears not to be able to find any authentication mechanics. I can connect to it but not authenticate:


# sivtest -u hw -v gupta
S: "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.4.17-Fedora-RPM-2.4.17-13.el7"
S: "SIEVE" "comparator-i;ascii-numeric fileinto reject vacation imapflags notify envelope relational regex subaddress copy"
S: "STARTTLS"
S: "UNAUTHENTICATE"
S: OK
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0
logout
OK "Logout Complete"
Connection closed.


I didn´t get to figure this out yet.


exim.conf:

[...]
begin transports



# cyrus_ltcp:
#   driver = smtp
#   protocol = lmtp
#   delivery_date_add
#   envelope_to_add
#   return_path_add
#   hosts = localhost
#   allow_localhost

lmtp_socket:
   driver = lmtp
   socket = /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp
   delivery_date_add
   envelope_to_add
   return_path_add


# ls -la /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp
srwxrwxrwx. 1 root root 0 Mar 16 12:58 /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp


I have this working on the old server (which doesn´t run Centos) and am trying to migrate it to the new one (which runs Centos 7.4).  The version of cyrus and sasl are the same on both machines.

So cyrus-imapd and cyrus-sasl are not the ones shipped by CentOS?

They are from packages installed by yum and just happen to be the same versions as on the old server. I can´t tell if the same compiling options were used, though.

What´s the problem with Centos that these things don´t just work as they usually do?

It works on CentOS, I can assure you that.

Hopefully so ...

Alexander
