Hi All,
I have a problem that may globally cyrus and sasl-related but I have a
feeling it's more sasl. So, at first the obligatory versions: Ubuntu
server 5.04, cyrus 2.1.18-1ubuntu1, openldap 2.2.26-3, cyrus-sasl2
2.1.19-1.5ubuntu4
PAM<->LDAP seems to work good, I can do ssh logins with LDAP users. I
guess cyrus-imapd settings are good, too because I can do plaintext
imap logins with users in sasldb. My problem is that I cannot log into
imap server with an LDAP user (which is not included in sasldb, of
course).
Let's see what I've done so far:
/etc/imapd.conf:
-----
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_mech_list: plain login
sasl_minimum_layer: 0
If I set sasl_pwcheck_method to saslauthd I could never authenticate
again with sasldb users, either (so imap and cyradm login won't work).
/etc/default/saslauthd:
------
START=yes
MECHANISMS="pam"
I've tried with MECHANISMS="pam ldap" but it did not work.
My /etc/pam.d/imap looks like this:
------
auth sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so
account sufficient /lib/security/pam_ldap.so
Now if I try with an LDAP user I can see this:
# imtest -a testuser -l0 -m login 192.168.1.10
S: * OK gape Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.18-IPv6-Debian-2.1.18-1ubuntu1 server ready

Please enter your password:
C: L01 LOGIN testuser {8}
S: + go ahead
C: <omitted>
S: L01 NO Login failed: user not found
Authentication failed. generic failure

and if I try to logon with a sasldb user (I use this user to lmtp
connection, by the way):
imtest -a lmtpuser -l0 -m login 192.168.1.10
S: * OK gape Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.18-IPv6-Debian-2.1.18-1ubuntu1 server ready

So you can see it's working. Logs:

Now I'm clueless a little. Cyrus authentication works with sasldb. I
can login with LDAP users through PAM. How can I force SASL to use PAM
if it cannot find sasldb user?
Thanks in advance,
Imre Veres
