Hi List!
Should those two /usr/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf files do the same or not?
-------------------Sendmail.conf variant 1-----------------------------
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: login plain

Together with that, saslauthd ist started with "-a sasldb".
------------------Sendmail.conf variant 2------------------------------
pw_check_method: auxprop
auxprop_plugin: sasldb

With that, saslauthd can stay asleep.
Sascha,
You've got a typo in the second config. 'pw_check_method' is wrong.
Hi Dan!
Thanks for the hint, but this was just a typo in my message. It was
late and all I want to know is - should both configurations (without
typos) do basicly the same, or not?
I have not configured saslauthd in the way that you are testing, but I
believe that the two should function in a similar way.
To clear things up. The original target was and is a setup with
sendmail offering optional SSL and TLS. Plain, login, cram-md5 and
digest-md5 as auth-mechs, all against (cleartext) credentials in
OpenLDAP via auxprop and ldapdb. I got OpenLDAP working with sshd via
PAM (actually using saslauthd). But couldn't get sendmail to do it's
job. So I tried
I have a similar working setup using Postfix/ldapdb. I would trouble
shoot this as Sendmail specific, unless you have another daemon set up
using ldapdb to test with. You can try increasing your log_level:

I agree that there could be better debugging information available.
smtptest, which is part of the cyrus-clients-2.x Debian package, is a
good resource for trouble shooting SMTP setups.
