Hello,
You can use saslauthd/LDAP for your users and a local sasldb2 file for
your admins. You don't need PAM at all.
unfortunately neither sasldb nor auxprop is compiled in at redhat
enterprise linux 4 and I wouldn't like to compile everything from scratch:
# saslauthd -v
saslauthd 2.1.19
authentication mechanisms: getpwent kerberos5 pam rimap shadow ldap
* sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop saslauthd
* sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb
Could I just write
sasl_pwcheck_method: getpwent saslauthd
instead so /etc/passwd will be used whereas a linux-user with the same
name as the admin-user of cyrus would have to be created?
Regards
Marten Lehmann
