saslauthd getpwent
hello I noticed that getpwent method of saslauthd fails on solaris, it works with pam or shadow but not with getpwent. IS it normal for Solaris 9 ? or is there some trick to make it work? thanks Rick

During the transition here, I was running saslauthd -a getpwent because it was easier to hack the backdoor password into the getpwent method rather than pam, and it worked just fine feeding from NIS+ on Solaris 9. Is you name service switch setup properly? Are you running NIS, or are you using local shadow files? -- John A.

I'm having fun and games @ the moment on Solaris. Inconsistent results between cyradm and imtest, but I digress... Try using -a pam or -a shadow, see how you go. Check the auth debug log (as documented). Pete. RJ45 wrote: hello I noticed that getpwent method of saslauthd fails on solaris, it works with pam or shadow but not with getpwent.

Re: saslauthd getpwent
it works for me with -a shadow and with -a pam I think fetpwent does not work cause solaris is not compliant to this method. anyway postfix-2.0.3-TLS+cyrus-sasl-2.1.12+cyrus-imapd-2.1.12 is now working fine on solaris 9 for me Rick On Fri, 7 Feb 2003, Peter Lawler wrote: I'm having fun and games @ the moment on Solaris.
