dear all i've got a problem with postfix-sasl and debian7.
I've copied the confguration from a debian6 working scenario, postifx is using virtual mysql cnf and sasl is configured to auth users via sql. O the new debian7 server sasl auth fails and i get on mail.log: SASL PLAIN authentication failed: no mechanism available Here some configuration: relevant of /etc/postfix/main.cf smtpd_sasl_type = cyrus smtpd_sasl_path = smtpd my /etc/default/saslauthd START=yes MECHANISMS="pam" OPTIONS="-c -m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r" my /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf pwcheck_method: saslauthd mech_list: plain login allow_plaintext: true auxprop_plugin: sql sql_hostnames: xxx sql_user:xxx sql_passwd:xxx sql_database:xxx sql_select:select password from mailbox where username = '%u@%r' saslauthd_path: /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/mux my /etc/pam.d/smtp auth required pam_mysql.so user=xxx passwd=xxx host=xxx db=xxx table=mailbox usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=password crypt=1 md5=1 verbose=5 account sufficient pam_mysql.so user=xxx passwd=xxx host=xxx db=xxx table=mailbox usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=password crypt=1 md5=1 verbose=5 The strange think is that if i run: testsaslauthd -f /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/mux -u xxx -p xxx 0: NO "authentication failed" but, if i run: testsaslauthd -f /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/mux -u xxx -p xxx -s smtp 0: OK "Success." So, it seems that postfix doesn't pass the information to saslauthd to use the service smtp, is it correct? Can you help me to figure it out? Thanks -- /*************/ nik600 http://www.kumbe.it
