Since you built using lnp, password authentication is done using PAM.

Did you set up proper PAM configuration rules for IMAP in file /etc/pam.d/imap ?

Hi,

I wish to setup uw-imapd on a Redhat EL4 box, which is a NIS client.
I compiled imap2006 for port lnp and with SSLTYPE=none since I can safely afford plain text passwords.

I setup a folder on a pine client with "Server : <fqdn of server>/user=<user>" and "Path : mail/" When I try to open the folder Pine asks me for password and then tells me "Invalid login credentials".
The syslog on the imapd server also says "Login failed"

This is a NIS client. How do I make it us-imapd work?
Thanks for any help.
