Hello,
I'm trying to configure a linux box as secondary MX server with postfix,
TLS and SMTPAUTH, where the users should authenticate using their
credentials on a FreeBSD server runnig cyrus IMAP.
The server is authenticating correctly, but the client does not
understand, breaking the string "server" in "rver":
auth_rimap: unexpected response to auth request: rver ready
Configuration of the FreeBSD server:
/usr/local/etc/imapd.conf:
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_mech_list: plain login
From a FreeBSD client I can successfully log in using:
bsdclient> saslauthd -a rimap -O x.x.x.x
bsdclient> testsaslauthd -u myusername -p mypassw -f
/var/state/saslauthd/mux
0: OK "Success."
On the server the log line is:
Apr 8 11:37:46 bsdserver imap[52745]: login: bsdclient [bsd-client-ip]
myusername plaintext User logged in
But the same test from the linux host fails:
linux> saslauthd -a rimap -O x.x.x.x
linux> testsaslauthd -u myusername -p mypassw -f /var/run/saslauthd/mux
0: NO "authentication failed"
linux> tail /var/log/messages
Apr 8 11:40:25 linuxclient saslauthd[18932]: auth_rimap: unexpected
response to auth request: rver ready
Apr 8 11:40:25 linuxclient saslauthd[18932]: do_auth : auth
failure: [user=username] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=rimap]
[reason=[ALERT] Unexpected response from remote authentication server]
On the server side, this login is successful
Apr 8 11:42:08 bsdserver imap[36862]: login: linuxclient
[linux-client-ip] myusername plaintext User logged in
The cyrus-sasl versions are 2.1.22-4 on linux and 2.1.22 on FreeBSD.
Any hint?
Thank you,
Ombretta
