1; chown [works like expectetd with seperator ":"]
# LANG=C chown root.root.root.root ~root.root/test chown: `root.root.root.root': invalid group # LANG=C chown root.root:root.root ~root.root/test # ll ~root.root/ -rw-r--r-- 1 root.root root.root 0 14. Nov 16:38 test
2. useradd :-(
# LANG=C useradd test.test useradd: invalid user name 'test.test'
you have to create eg. a user testtest and change it to test.test in the /etc/passwd /etc/shadow /etc/group
# grep root.root /etc/passwd /etc/group /etc/shadow | awk -F: '{print $1 "\t" $2 }'
/etc/passwd root.root
/etc/group root.root
/etc/shadow root.root
3. cyrus-imapd
--man imapd.conf-- unixhierarchysep: 0 Use the UNIX separator character ’/’ for delimiting levels of mailbox hierarchy. The default is to use the netnews separator character ’.’. ----
you have to edit the imapd.conf to enable dot-users
eg. cyradm > cm user/test.test
