Jwebmail + James

[Adrian <at...@charter.net>]

Has anyone got the trick to logging in to the Jwebmail admin. I went to 
the data directory and
edited the xml for a password , but nothing seems to work , so I can`t 
tell what is going on.
I `m running James 2.0.3a, on the sun-linux jdk1.3.1, on OpenBSD 
snapshot, with Tomcat 4.0.4. Looks wierd when you spell it out but James 
runs great.
Just wanted to add the servlet interface. Was going to write my own, but 
figured I would try on already available.

- Are you using the admin login?  (Via admin.jsp?)

- In the XML document, you are looking for the CONFIG elt with the KEY
child with ADMIN PASSWORD content.  As the DESCRIPTION says, that
password is encrypted.  You can replace it with plain text via the admin
login web page - the DESCRIPTION does not mean you can put plain text
into the XML document.

- For the hard-coded original admin password, look in initConfig() in
the net.wastl.webmail.server.WebMailServer class source.  I think the
release or installation notes document this too.
	Hope this helps,
