Hi Dormando,
Thanks for your guidance. Meanwhile, reading through the memcached email 
chain, I see someone else also observed something similar but there was no 
solution. The question is how do I create the memcahed-sasl-pwdb file and 
populate it with username and password as the saslpasswd2 doesnt seem to be 
doing it in this case.

Om Kale
