[Centos] Cyrus-Imapd and saslauth

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]



Just a note for others that do not wish to waste time rediscovering 
the wheel. And to put this where I can google for it the next time 
I forget things I once knew. 

Despite the fact that RH 4EL ships with both cyrus-sasl and cyrus-
imap, and despite the fact that cyrus-imap requires cyrus-sasl to 
work, /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd is distributed with MECH=shadow even 
though cyrus-imapd needs this value set to MECH=pam.  

Oh.  Do not overlook that the /var/spool/imap (or whatever) mailbox 
directory has to be owned by the cyrus user.

Regards,
Jim
