OK I got it working with sasldb. The problem is all to do with postfix running in a chroot sandbox. For the archives this is what I had to do :- In /etc/postfix/main.cf smtpd_sasl_path = /var/lib/sasl2:/usr/lib/sasl2 smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, check_relay_domains smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous create sasldb database with the command saslpasswd2 -c -u jennings.homelinux.net -a smtpauth derek The database will be created in /etc/sasl.db copy that to /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/sasl2/sasl.db Create the file /var/spool/postfix/var/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf containing the text pwcheck_method: auxprop Create a symlink between /usr/lib/sasl2 and /var/spool/postfix/usr/lib/sasl2 ln -s /usr/lib/sasl2 /var/spool/postfix/usr/lib/sasl2 Thanks derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
