Hi Ken,

Here is my configuration in imapd.conf:

sasl_sql_hostnames: localhost
sasl_sql_user: cyrus
sasl_sql_passwd: *******
sasl_sql_database: RETRIX_TRANSITION
sasl_sql_statement: select PASSWORD from USER_ACCOUNTS where USERNAME='%u'


This seems to be consistent with many of the examples I've found; however, I'm open to new ideas that would eliminate this extra query.

Thanks,

Patrick

I've got cyrus-imapd 2.2.8 setup to authenticate via a MySQL database. I've enabled logging on the database while I'm setting things up, and I've noticed that when I login, Cyrus runs the same query twice:
47 Connect [EMAIL PROTECTED] on RETRIX_TRANSITION
47 Query START TRANSACTION
47 Query select PASSWORD from USER_ACCOUNTS where USERNAME='patrick'
47 Query select PASSWORD from USER_ACCOUNTS where USERNAME='patrick'
47 Query COMMIT
Any idea as to why this would be happening?

What does your sql_select option look like? What SASL mechanism generated this query.


My guess is that SASL is trying to fetch both userPassword and a legacy mech-specific secret (e.g. cmusaslsecretDIGEST-MD5), but since you apparently aren't using the %p variable in your sql_select option (you've hardcoded the property as "PASSWORD", the same column gets selected twice.
