Hello Michael,

This is usually a permissions issue.  Have you checked where saslauthd is
running as a UNIX socket - the permissions are world readable/writeable?
Check the permissions of
(typical location)
/var/run/saslauthd/
/var/run/saslauthd/mux.socket

If not, you can turn on debugging in Sendmail and then see the errors
either in mismatched of allowed protocols. "-O loglevel=14" when you run
sendmail should be sufficient.


Thanks Vijay, still having problems.  I tried chmodding /var/run/saslauthd
to 777 but it didn't help.  When raising the log level to 14, here's what I
see in the log:

Also see syslog (auth facility).

I tried reducing the methods to just LOGIN and PLAIN.  I also added some
other lines to the Sendmail.conf.2 file:

pwcheck_method:saslauthd
mech_list: login plain
saslauthd_path: /var/run/saslauthd

This should include the trailing /mux file. See:

http://www.cyrussasl.org/docs/cyrus-sasl/2.1.25/options.php

allowplaintext: 1

sendmail is just not even trying to talk to saslauthd.  Am I missing a
library or something?

Being linked against the libsasl2 glue library should be all that's needed
for communication with saslauthd.
