Hmm, I not sure what that is.  Can you give us backtrace and your
saslauthd startup cmd?


saslauthd -a pam (with pam_pgsql) still gives me that problem :-(


Today I tried to use gdb on saslauthd and that's what I've got:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x28104942 in vfprintf () from /usr/lib/libc.so.4

I don't know if that will give you any clue

Any help will be greatli appreciated!

This does not help. Run gdb against the saslauthd core file and type bt.



This is output of gdb on one of my servers:

Something in the pam_pgsql module is causing vfprintf() to crash. Does this happen for every authentication, or just once in a while. If the latter, try running saslauthd -n 0 (zero), this might hide any memory leaks in PAM of the pgsql module.


Unless you actually need PAM for some reason, I'd suggest using the SQL auxprop plugin included in SASL (which supports PgSQL). It will elimiate any PAM issues and allow you to use non-plaintext mechanisms as well.
