Use synctest (or telnet <host> csync) to visually verify that the PLAIN mechanism is being offered by the server: dwh...@zek:~$ synctest localhost S: * SASL SRP DIGEST-MD5 PASSDSS-3DES-1 GSSAPI OTP NTLM CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN S: * OK zek Cyrus sync server v2.3.16 And verify that the host you're running sync_client on has the PLAIN mech installed with pluginviewer. -- Dan White ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/ Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyrusimap.web.cmu.edu/twiki List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
