Zombie pop3s (and imaps?) processes in connect state

by Christian Balzer

Hello, we've been using perdition as a pop3/pop3s/imap/imaps proxy for about four years now, first with Debian Sarge package and now under Etch. And throughout this time I've seen pop3s (and from the looks of it the same happens with imaps) processes stuck in connect, like this: --- 16836 ? S 5:31 0 120 32179 2204 0.0 perdition.pop3s 28070 ? S 0:00 0 120 32311 1564 0.0 \_ perdition.pop3s: connect 7782 ? S 0:00 0 120 32311 1564 0.0 \_ perdition.pop3s: connect 24468 ? S 0:00 0 120 32311 1568 0.0 \_ perdition.pop3s: connect 14180 ? S 0:00 0 120 32311 1568 0.0 \_ perdition.pop3s: connect 13503 ? S 0:00 0 120 32311 1564 0.0 \_ perdition.pop3s: connect --- They never die off, keep the connection open, there is no traffic and the other end might be long gone. Last trace in the logs is always like this: --- Feb 5 22:05:16 pp11 perdition[7782]: Connect: hi.mi.ts.u->203.216.5.113 --- It must be something related to the SSL'ness of these service, since I'm not seeing this happening ever for imap/pop3. Alas a lot of people do use TLS with those, so it's not a generic SSL issue. Maybe the master process could kick a child handling connections in the head after "timeout" seconds in connect state? If more information is needed I can try to provide it, but note that with a rate of roughly 35 pops per second I'm a bit weary to turn on debugging. ^_- This may or may not be related to another SSL related issue, which will be for the sake of making searches in the archive more likely to find good keywords in a separate mail.

Problems with IMAP4S LOGIN command

by TOPdesk Systeembeheer (beheer＠TOPdesk.com)

Hi everybody, Since an upgrade to our backend IMAPS server (Zarafa 6.20.7), we have some trouble authenticating via our perdition IMAP4S proxy (version 1.17-7etch1). I've enabled debug and connection logging, and I see that the LOGIN command is splitted in 3 lines instead of sending the whole command in one. Is that normal? Can I configure it somewhere? Here is the log I get: Jul 2 14:33:45 floor perdition[9781]: Connect: xx.xx.xx.xx -> [IP proxy] Jul 2 14:33:45 floor perdition[9781]: SSL connection using AES128-SHA Jul 2 14:33:45 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "* OK IMAP4 Ready floor 0001d839\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: CLIENT: "1.584 CAPABILITY\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "* CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4REV1\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "1.584 OK CAPABILITY\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: CLIENT: "2.584 LOGIN piekjepuk 6012417\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: username_add_domain: username_add_domain 0 1 0x807bd1c Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: getserver: do_dbserver_get Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SSL connection using AES256-SHA Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "* OK Zarafa IMAP gateway ready\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "flim07 CAPABILITY\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "* CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 CHILDREN XAOL-OPTION IDLE\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "flim07 OK CAPABILITY Completed\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "flim08 LOGIN {6}\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "flim08 BAD LOGIN must have 2 arguments\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_response: invalid tag from server 1 Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_authenticate: imap4_out_response login Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "piekjepuk {7}\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "piekjepuk BAD Command not recognized\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_response: invalid tag from server 1 Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_authenticate: imap4_out_response name Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "6012417\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "* BAD Command not recognized\r\n" Jul 2 14:33:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "* BAD Command not recognized\r\n" Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "* BYE Connection closed because of timeout\r\n" Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: SELF: "* BYE Connection closed because of timeout\r\n" Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: REAL: "" Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: token_read: token_fill_buffer Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: read_line: token_read Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_response: read_line Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: imap4_out_authenticate: imap4_out_response passwd Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: main: protocol->out_authenticate -1 Jul 2 14:34:46 floor perdition[9781]: Fatal error authenticating user.

MySQL fallback servers

by Roland Rosenfeld

Hi! Some years ago I developed a little patch that allows to add multiple MySQL servers to the MySQL database backend, so if the first server isn't reachable, perdition falls back to the second etc. I was sure, that I sent this patch to Simon or to this list, but the patch never appeared in the upstream source and when I checked all my outbound mail, I didn't find a mail with this patch, so I seem to have forgotten to do so. Today I updated my patch to the current 1.17.1. Maybe someone else will find this patch useful.

New perdition release?

by Thomas Vogt

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello Are there any plans for a new perdition release? With the changeable ldap version via configuration file is at least one useful change in the repository. Maybe experimental ipv6 support could also be added. I'm also the FreeBSD maintainer of the perdition port and i would like to bring this in the ports tree without maintaining too many local patches.
