Description Patrik Kullman 2002-11-11 05:06:30 UTC

I emerged courier and all of it components, but didn't find info on how the
admin pass is set up.

The installation guide tells me to execute "make install-webadmin-password". I
couldn't find any way to find this password.

What is it is set to / where do I find it?

(Related to bug #8746 ? ;P )

With a text editor of your choice you have to create a file called
"password" in /etc/courier/webadmin. In this file you write the
password of your choice to access the WebAdmin of Courier.
After this you have to set the correct rights on the file:
# chown mail:mail password
# chmod 400 password

Now you should be able to log into webadmin.

I have updated courier-0.40.1 to include an password.dist with some instructions
based on the suggestions on this bug report.
