Can anyone offer advice on implementing Sasl authentication with Postfix on 
Mdk 10.0

I have followed the Howto on the Postfix site 
(http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/patrick.koetter/smtpauth/ ), and the one at 
MandrakeSecure, but am unable to get sasl to authenticate users using either 
pam or shadow authentication.

The problem seems to be the username is not being recognised as valid.
A sample error message is :-
May  4 15:57:22 jennings smtp(pam_unix)[6072]: check pass; user unknown
May  4 15:57:22 jennings smtp(pam_unix)[6072]: authentication failure; 
logname= uid=0 euid=0 tty= ruser= rhost= 
May  4 15:57:25 jennings saslauthd[6072]: DEBUG: auth_pam: pam_authenticate 
failed: Authentication failure
May  4 15:57:25 jennings saslauthd[6072]: do_auth         : auth failure: 
[EMAIL PROTECTED] [service=smtp] 
[realm=jennings.homelinux.net] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error]


TIA
