This is not true. Cyrus IMAP will pass options to the sasl library that start with the sasl_ prefix. The sasl library has an option "saslauthd_path". So, in imapd.conf you can set something like: sasl_saslauthd_path: /somewhere/else Be sure to include the trailing /mux. Also, this isn't as globally useful as you might think, since saslauthd and libsasl should always agree on the default location. -Rob -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Rob Siemborski * Andrew Systems Group * Cyert Hall 207 * 412-268-7456 Research Systems Programmer * /usr/contributed Gatekeeper
