NAME

       vmm.cfg - configuration file for vmm

SYNOPSIS

       vmm.cfg

DESCRIPTION

       vmm(1) reads its configuration data from vmm.cfg.

       The configuration file is split into multiple sections.  A section starts with the section
       name, enclosed in square brackets `[' and `]', followed by `option = value' pairs.
       Whitespace around the `=' and at the end of a value is ignored.   Empty  lines  and  lines
       starting with `#' or `;' will be ignored.

       Each value uses one of the following data types:

       Boolean to  indicate  if  something  is  enabled/activated  (true) or disabled/deactivated
               (false).
               Accepted values for true are: 1, yes, true and on.
               Accepted values for false are: 0, no, false and off.

       Int     an integer number, written without a fractional or decimal component.
               For example 1, 50 or 321 are integers.

       String  a sequence of characters and/or numbers.
               For example `word', `hello world' or `/usr/bin/strings' are strings.

       Most options have a default value, shown in parentheses after the option's name.  In order
       to  use  a  option's default setting, comment out the line, either with a # or ; or simply
       remove the setting from vmm.cfg.

       A minimal vmm.cfg would be:

       [database]
       user = me
       pass = xxxxxxxx

       [misc]
       dovecot_version = 1.2.16

SEARCH ORDER

       By default vmm(1) looks for the vmm.cfg file in the following  directories  in  the  order
       listed:
              /root
              /usr/local/etc
              /etc

       The first configuration file found will be used.

SECTION ACCOUNT

       The options in the section account are used to specify user account related settings.

   account.delete_directory
       delete_directory (default: false) : Boolean

       Determines the behavior of vmm(1) when an account is deleted (userdelete).  If this option
       is set to true the user's home directory will be deleted recursively.

   account.directory_mode
       directory_mode (default: 448) : Int

       Access mode for a user's home directory and all directories inside.  The value has  to  be
       specified in decimal (base 10) notation.
       For example: `drwx------' → octal 0700 → decimal 448

   account.disk_usage
       disk_usage (default: false) : Boolean

       Determines  whether the disk usage of a user's mail directory always should be summarized,
       using du(1), and displayed with the account information (userinfo).

       This could be slow on large Maildirs.   When  you  have  enabled  quotas,  vmm's  userinfo
       subcommand  will  also  display  the current quota usage of the account.  You may also use
       userinfo's optional details-argument du or full, in order  to  display  the  current  disk
       usage of an account's mail directory.

   account.password_length
       password_length (default: 8) : Int

       Determines  how  many  characters  and/or  numbers  should  be used for randomly generated
       passwords.  Any value less than 8 will be increased to 8.

   account.random_password
       random_password (default: false) : Boolean

       Determines whether vmm(1) should generate a random password when no password was given for
       the  useradd  subcommand.   If  this option is set to false vmm will prompt you to enter a
       password for the new account.

       You   can   specify   the   password   length   of   generated    passwords    with    the
       account.password_length option.

SECTION BIN

       The bin section is used to specify some paths to some binaries required by vmm(1).

   bin.dovecotpw
       dovecotpw (default: /usr/sbin/dovecotpw) : String

       The  absolute  path  to  the dovecotpw(1) binary.  Use the absolute path to the doveadm(1)
       binary, if you are using Dovecot v2.0.

       This binary is used to generate a password hash, if misc.password_scheme is set to one  of
       `CRAM-MD5',  `HMAC-MD5',  `LANMAN',  `OTP',  `RPA'  or  `SKEY'.   This binary will be also
       required if your Python installation doesn't support the:

       •   md4 hash algorithm (hashlib + OpenSSL or PyCrypto)  used  for  the  password  schemes:
           `PLAIN-MD4' and `NTLM'

       •   sha256  hash  algorithm  (hashlib  or  PyCrypto  ≥  2.1.0alpha1) used for the password
           schemes: `SHA256' and `SSHA256'

       •   sha512 hash algorithm (hashlib) used for the password schemes: `SHA512' and `SSHA512'

       The doveadm(1) binary is also used to create  a  user's  INBOX  and  additional  mailboxes
       (mailbox.folders), when the mailbox.format is set to mdbox or sdbox.

   bin.du
       du (default: /usr/bin/du) : String

       The  absolute  path to du(1).  This binary is used to summarize the disk usage of a user's
       mail directory.

   bin.postconf
       postconf (default: /usr/sbin/postconf) : String

       The absolute path to Postfix' postconf(1).  This binary is required  when  vmm(1)  has  to
       check for some Postfix settings, e.g. the virtual_alias_expansion_limit.

SECTION DATABASE

       The database section is used to specify some options required to connect to the database.

   database.host
       host (default: localhost) : String

       Hostname or IP address of the database server.

   database.module
       module (default: psycopg2) : String

       The  Python PostgreSQL database adapter module to be used.  Supported modules are psycopg2
       and pyPgSQL.

   database.name
       name (default: mailsys) : String

       Name of the database.

   database.pass
       pass (default: None) : String

       Database password.

   database.port
       port (default: 5432) : Int

       The TCP port, on which the database server is listening for connections.

   database.sslmode
       sslmode (default: prefer) : String

       Determines whether and with what priority an SSL connection will be  negotiated  with  the
       database  server.   Possible  values  are: disabled, allow, prefer, require, verify-ca and
       verify-full.  The modes verify-ca and verify-full are available since PostgreSQL 8.4

       This setting will be ignored when the database.module is set to pyPgSQL.

   database.user
       user (default: None) : String

       Name of the database user.

SECTION DOMAIN

       The domain section specifies some domain related settings.

       The quota limit (quota_bytes and quota_messages), service settings (imap, pop3, sieve  and
       smtp)  and  the  transport  setting will be applied when a domain is created.  In order to
       modify those settings for an existing domain, use one of the following vmm(1) subcommands:

       domainquota
              in order to update a domain's quota limit

       domainservices
              in order to assign a different service set to a domain

       domaintransport
              in order to set a new default domain transport

       When an account is created, it inherits all the settings of the  domain  to  which  it  is
       added.   Different  settings  for  an  existing  account  can be set using the subcommands
       userquota, userservices and usertransport.

   domain.auto_postmaster
       auto_postmaster (default: true) : Boolean

       Determines if vmm(1) should create also a postmaster account when a new domain is  created
       (domainadd).

   domain.delete_directory
       delete_directory (default: false) : Boolean

       Specifies  whether  the domain directory and all user directories inside should be deleted
       when a domain is deleted (domaindelete).

   domain.directory_mode
       directory_mode (default: 504) : Int

       Access mode for the domain directory in decimal (base 10) notation.
       For example: `drwxrwx---' → octal 0770 → decimal 504

   domain.force_deletion
       force_deletion (default: false) : Boolean

       Force the deletion of accounts and aliases when a domain is deleted (domaindelete).

   domain.imap
       imap (default: true) : Boolean

       Determines whether newly created users can log in via IMAP.

   domain.pop3
       pop3 (default: true) : Boolean

       Determines whether newly created users can log in via POP3.

   domain.quota_bytes
       quota_bytes (default: 0) : String

       Quota limit in bytes.  0 means unlimited.  This limit will be applied to all newly created
       domains.

       The option's value can be written as an integer value, e.g.: 20480.  It's also possible to
       append one of the following prefixes to the limit: b (bytes), k (kilobytes), M (megabytes)
       or G (gigabytes).
       1024 is the same as 1024b or 1k.

   domain.quota_messages
       quota_messages (default: 0) : Int

       Quota  limit in number of messages.  0 means unlimited.  This limit will be applied to all
       newly created domains.

   domain.sieve
       sieve (default: true) : Boolean

       Determines whether newly created users can log in via SIEVE (ManageSieve).

   domain.smtp
       smtp (default: true) : Boolean

       Determines whether newly created users can log in via SMTP (SMTP AUTH).

   domain.transport
       transport (default: dovecot:) : String

       Default transport for domains and accounts.  For details see transport(5).

SECTION MAILBOX

       The mailbox section is used to specify some options for new created mailboxes in the users
       home directories.  The INBOX will be created always.

   mailbox.folders
       folders (default: Drafts:Sent:Templates:Trash) : String

       A  colon separated list of mailboxes that should be created.  If no additionally mailboxes
       should be created, set the value of this option to a single colon (`:').

       If you want to create folders containing one or more  subfolders,  separate  them  with  a
       single dot (`.').

       If  you  want  to  use  internationalized  mailbox  names  (e.g.  `Wysłane'  or `Gelöschte
       Objekte'), write their names UTF-8 encoded.  vmm(1) will convert internationalized mailbox
       names to a modified version of the UTF-7 encoding (see also: RFC 3501, section 5.1.3).

   mailbox.format
       format (default: maildir) : String

       The mailbox format to be used for a user's mailbox.  Depending on the used Dovecot version
       (misc.dovecot_version) vmm(1) supports up to three formats:

       maildir Dovecot ≥ v1.0.0

       mdbox   Dovecot ≥ v2.0.beta5

       sdbox   Dovecot ≥ v2.0.rc3

   mailbox.root
       root (default: Maildir) : String

       Name of the mailbox root directory in a  user's  home  directory.   Commonly  used  names,
       depending on the used mailbox.format, are Maildir, mdbox or sdbox.

   mailbox.subscribe
       subscribe (default: true) : Boolean

       When  this  option  is  set to true, the mailboxes from the mailbox.folders option will be
       listed in the user's subscriptions file.  If you  don't  want  to  subscribe  the  created
       mailboxes, set this option to false.

SECTION MISC

       The misc section is used to define miscellaneous settings.

   misc.base_directory
       base_directory (default: /srv/mail) : String

       All domain directories will be created inside this directory.

   misc.crypt_blowfish_rounds
       crypt_blowfish_rounds (default: 5) : Int

       Number of encryption rounds for the password_scheme BLF-CRYPT.

       The value must be in range 4 - 31.

   misc.crypt_sha256_rounds
       crypt_sha256_rounds (default: 5000) : Int

       Number of encryption rounds for the password_scheme SHA256-CRYPT.

       The value must be in range 1000 - 999999999.

   misc.crypt_sha512_rounds
       crypt_sha512_rounds (default: 5000) : Int

       The value must be in range 1000 - 999999999.

   misc.dovecot_version
       dovecot_version (default: None) : String

       The version number of the currently used Dovecot version.  (see: dovecot --version)
       When,  for example, the command dovecot --version prints 2.0.beta4 (8818db00d347), set the
       value of this option to 2.0.beta4.

   misc.password_scheme
       password_scheme (default: CRAM-MD5) : String

       Password scheme to use.  To get a list of all usable password schemes execute the  command
       vmm lp.

       With  Dovecot  ≥  v1.1.alpha1  it  is  also  possible  to append an encoding suffix to the
       password_scheme.  Supported encoding suffixes are: .b64, .base64 and .hex.   For  example:
       PLAIN.BASE64
