Hello - I subscribed here because I'm having a heck of a time with something I would imagine should be pretty easy: namely, I want to cyrus-imap with the saslpasswd. But I after a few hours and much reading and trial-and-error, I've had no success. I'm on gentoo linux, using cyrus-sasl-2.1.22 and cyrus-imapd-2.2.12: mybox ~ # saslpasswd2 -a smtpauth cyrus mybox ~ # sasldblistusers2 cyrus@mybox: userPassword mybox ~ # cyradm --user cyrus localhost IMAP Password: localhost> log output shows: May 15 13:04:22 mybox imap[8862]: accepted connection May 15 13:04:22 mybox perl: No worthy mechs found May 15 13:04:23 mybox imap[8862]: login: localhost [127.0.0.1] cyrus plaintext User logged in First question: why the "No worthy mechs found"? mybox ~ # imtest -u cyrus localhost -t "" S: * OK mybox Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12-Gentoo server ready C: C01 CAPABILITY S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND BINARY SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES ANNOTATEMORE IDLE STARTTLS LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED X-NETSCAPE S: C01 OK Completed C: S01 STARTTLS S: S01 OK Begin TLS negotiation now verify error:num=18:self signed certificate verify error:num=7:certificate signature failure TLS connection established: TLSv1 with cipher AES256-SHA (256/256 bits) C: C01 CAPABILITY S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ MAILBOX-REFERRALS NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND BINARY SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES ANNOTATEMORE IDLE AUTH=PLAIN SASL-IR LISTEXT LIST-SUBSCRIBED X-NETSCAPE S: C01 OK Completed Please enter your password: C: A01 AUTHENTICATE PLAIN Y3lydXMAcm9vdABjeXJ1cw== S: A01 NO user not found Authentication failed. generic failure Security strength factor: 256 log output shows: May 15 13:06:16 mybox imap[8862]: accepted connection May 15 13:06:16 mybox imap[8862]: starttls: TLSv1 with cipher AES256-SHA (256/256 bits new) no authentication May 15 13:06:20 mybox imap[8862]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] PLAIN [SASL(-13): user not found: Password verification failed] Second question: why am I getting "user not found"?
