Hi, I hope that this is the right mailing list for my question.
I compiled and installed Cyrus imap (v2.2.3) and Cyrus sasl (v 2.1.7) on my redhat 7.3 server. The imapd.conf is this: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- configdirectory: /var/lib/imap partition-default: /var/spool/imap admins: cyrus ksmail lmtp_admins: cyrus ksmail allowanonymouslogin: yes sievedir: /var/lib/imap/sieve sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail servername: kmailcert.it hashimapspool: true sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd sasl_mech_list: PLAIN ----------------------------------------------------------------------- and the /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd is: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- # Authentications mechanism (for list see saslauthd -v) SASL_AUTHMECH=PLAIN # Hostname for remote IMAP server (if rimap auth mech is used) SASL_RIMAP_HOSTNAME= # Honour time-of-day login restrictions (if shadow auth mech is used) SASL_TIME_OF_DAY_LOGIN_RESTRICTIONS=yes ----------------------------------------------------------------------- then I execute the /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/cyradm: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus-imapd]# ./cyradm -u cyrus localhost IMAP Password: Login failed. at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.6.1/i386-linux/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 118 cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with as cyrus ----------------------------------------------------------------------- /var/log/messages tells me: ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Mar 8 17:36:14 ksmail-test perl: No worthy mechs found Mar 8 17:45:32 ksmail-test last message repeated 2 times ----------------------------------------------------------------------- How strange. I tried to test the SASL server with sasl2-sample-server -s rcmd local=127.0.0.1;23,remote=127.0.0.1;23 -m PLAIN and sasl2-sample-client localhost -m PLAIN with the output result: receiving capability list... recv: {57} PLAIN LOGIN OTP NTLM DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 GSSAPI ANONYMOUS PLAIN LOGIN OTP NTLM DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 GSSAPI ANONYMOUS please enter an authentication id: cyrus please enter an authorization id: cyrus Password: send: {5} PLAIN send: {1} Y send: {17} cyrus[0]cyrus[0]cyrus successful authentication closing connection what's wrong?
