Hi. I have been using various clients to connect to my sendmail server using port 587 and using starttls to encrypt the connections and then using the plain mechanism to send the user name and password to authenticate.
Last day or so this has stopped working -- I don't know that I changed anything (famous last words), but I do see the following if I run saslauthd -v saslauthd 2.1.28 authentication mechanisms: sasldb getpwent pam rimap shadow but I have in my Sendmail.conf file in /usr/lib64/sasl2 pwcheck_method: saslauthd allowanonymouslogin: 0 allowplaintext: 1 mech_list: EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN log_level: 3 # and this seems to be why if I run sendmail at a high enough loglevel I get the message saying authwarning: no mechanisms. So, after all that, anyone have an idea as to how to fix? Thanks. -- Your life is like a penny. You're going to lose it. The question is: How do you spend it? John Covici wb2una cov...@ccs.covici.com
