Hi,
I am using Horde/IMP on RedHat 7.3 with Cyrus IMAP. I am having problems authenticatin users. I folowed the Cyrus howto and added users.
The problem is that it is authenticating users from the /etc/passwd and shadow file and not from sasldb and mails go to the Cyrus Imap mail directories, which works ok.
With this method I have to create the user both from cyradm and useradd.
I want to get users authenticated from the sasldb file and not /etc/passwd and shadow.
Which version of Cyrus IMAP are you using? These instructions are for Cyrus IMAP v2.1. If you want users to be auth-ed from the sasldb2 file, the parameter
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
must be defined in this manner. Then create users using the saslpasswd2 mechanism.
This is what my imapd.conf shows
