Great, one step less to install, I'll update the wiki ASAP.

Thank you but please fix the source since it doesn't work properly with very late systems (Fedora 15 and Fedora 16 in my tests)

You have to add:

push @INC, '/var/www/ispcp/engine';

at the very beginning of the file (before any "require" and after the showbang) to avoid authentication error in dovecot 2.0.15

Without the patch the logs show the following:

dovecot: auth: Fatal: execv(/var/www/ispcp/engine/ispcp-dovecot-mngr) failed: Input/output error

I also had do chmod 755 ispcp-dovecot-mngr and chmod 744 the following files:
ispcp_common_code.pl
ispcp_common_methods.pl
ispcp-db-keys.pl

I'm on Fedora 15 (with F 14 it works with no changes, but the above changes don't break it in earlier systems)

Best regards
