Hi,

after the release-stress it seems more relaxed here again. Time for
stupid questions! ;)
Is it possible to realise a smtp-auth with hashed passwords in the
database?
Now i am using Cyrus-SASL and i am feeling very uncomfortable with all
the unencrypted passwords in the database.

I never use unencrypted passwords - unless I'm testing - and I very much
use smtp-auth with saslauthd. Personally I prefer the rimap mechanism
when using authsql.

Hi.

funny thing you having a similar "issue" than me the other day.
there is an easy solution:
add this to your sasl startup config ( /etc/conf.d/saslauthd in Gentoo):

-arimap -O localhost

(obviously replace localhost with your hostname if it is a different machine)

That way you can have your passwords encrypted in the db and still use SASL :)

Just did this on thursday ;) maybe should blog it or put it in the wiki (if it is up again i am too lazy to check now)

Regards
