Hi --
I have Exim 4.60 setup to do login authentication
over TLS. If I use openssl to do an interactive
session and supply the appropriately encoded
login and password, I get authenticated just
fine. However, if I try to connect using Outlook
2003 v. 11, authentication fails. I know Outlook
is very particular about the server prompts; but,
I have been careful to follow the well settled
guidance on that issue. Can anyone offer a
suggestion as to what might be the problem here?
Here is what the authenticators section of my
Exim config file looks like:
begin authenticators
# Support for plain text password authentication.
fixed_plain:
driver = plaintext
public_name = PLAIN
server_advertise_condition = ${if
eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_prompts = :
server_condition =
${lookup{$2}lsearch{/etc/exim/plaintext_pass}{${if
eq{$value}{$3}{yes}{no}}}{no}}
# Support for login authentication.
fixed_login:
driver = plaintext
public_name = LOGIN
server_advertise_condition = ${if
eq{$tls_cipher}{}{no}{yes}}
server_prompts = Username:: : Password::
server_condition=${lookup{$1}lsearch{/etc/exim/plaintext_pass}{${if
eq{$value}{$2}{yes}{no}}}{no}}
server_set_id = $1
Thanks for any input.
