'--server' is not a valid option for version 2.3.16. Use:
cyradm --user cyrus --auth login localhost
I use sasldb2 for authentication, and I have added cyrus into the saslsb
using:
saslpasswd2 -c cyrus -u localhost
saslpasswd2 -c cyrus
works for me.
Not knowing what the first password might be, I set a password using
passwd in /etc/shadow for the user cyrus, but even hacking in this does
not
help anything.
saslauthd can be used to verify against /etc/shadow, but:
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
won't.
admins: cyrus root
allowanonymouslogin: no
allowplaintext: yes
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
Can someone here tell me what I am doing wrong? I have search the web for
Check your syslog, or where your auth facility is getting logged. You can
configure your syslog daemon to log 'auth.debug' and then set
'sasl_log_level: 7' within imapd.conf to log sasl debugging messages.
Use pluginviewer/saslpluginviewer to verify that you have the PLAIN
and LOGIN mechanisms and the sasldb auxprop installed correctly.
