Anyway, I cleaned it up once again, restarted cyrus, and run the command again. Here is the imapd.conf: configdirectory: /cyrus/imap partition-default: /cyrus/spool defaultacl: lrswipcd admins: cyrus@domainZ=com cyrus@xxxxxxxxxxx allowanonymouslogin: no timeout: 400 plaintextloginpause: 0 quotawarn: 90 autocreatequota: 50000 singleinstancestore: yes drachost: localhost dracinterval: 600 sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd loginrealms: all allowplaintext: yes sasl_mech_list: PLAIN sieveusehomedir: false sievedir: /usr/local/sieve sieve_maxscriptsize: 32 sieve_maxscripts: 5 partition-0: /cyrus/spool/0 partition-1: /cyrus/spool/1 ... And here the command and its results: [root@mailtx1 etc]# cyradm -user cyrus -auth login localhost IMAP Password: Login failed: authentication failure at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.5/i386-linux-thread-multi/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 118 cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with login as cyrus excerpt from logfile: Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 master[15176]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus-imapd/imapd Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 imap[15176]: executed Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 imap[15176]: sql_select option missing Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 imap[15176]: auxpropfunc error no mechanism available Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 imap[15176]: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for plugin: sql Jun 28 06:10:21 mailtx1 imap[15176]: accepted connection Jun 28 06:10:25 mailtx1 imap[15176]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] plaintext cyrus SASL(-13): authentication failure: checkpass failed So, I completely removed all auxprop lines and sasl_* lines, and still no luck. Looks like is still looking for auxprofunc... ?
