cyradm problem. sasl?

Hello everyone!

Iam trying to setup a mailserver with postfix, cyrus-imap, cyrus-sasl, mysql, pam_mysql on Redhat Enterprise 4.

Everything seems to work ok accept when I use cyradm to login on my imap server.

root> cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth plain
root>password: <---- this is where my maillog spits out an error message
( imap[2302]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1 ] PLAIN [SASL(-16): encryption needed to use mechanism: security flags do not match required] )

root>IMAP password: <--- this checks against mysql and seems to work fine.. I get into my imap server after this.

here is a paste of my maillog after I tried this.

Jul 26 09:28:50 mail56 imap[2302]: accepted connection
Jul 26 09:28:51 mail56 imap[2302]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] PLAIN [SASL(-16): encryption needed to use mechanism: security flags do not match required]
Jul 26 09:28:55 mail56 imap[2302]: login: localhost [127.0.0.1] cyrus plaintext User logged in


Ive been on this, googling, reading asking.. for a cpl of weeks now and it starts to get on my nervs.
Can anyone give me a hint on what to do here?

A couple of notes:

1. postfix works fine, it also authenticates fine, I can send and resieve mail
2. imap works, I can login to my imap server from outlook express, and view my mails.
3. I tryed to auth against sasldb with testsasl, and imtest. It works without any problems.
4. I prolly read every post out ther about this problem and noone gives a clear answer why this problem exists =)

If someone want to explain to me why the first authentication is ther for I would also be glad =)

cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth plain
>password     <----- why this one? what is it supposed to contact? Ive read that its contacting sasldb2, but when I run saslauthd in debugmode I see nothing
>IMAP password <----- this one makes sence, it checks my mysql tables and this also works and lets me into my imap server, even tho the first pw auth fails.

Here is my a few of my confs
