On my cryus imap server , when I try login from my localserver cyrus login works But when I login from a remote server realm gets added autmatically , causing login to fail In my sasl logs I can see for a local connection ----- saslauthd[21947] :do_auth : auth success: [user=cyrus] [service=imap] [realm=] [mech=pam] saslauthd[21947] :do_request : response: OK ------ For a remote connection ----- saslauthd[24011] :do_auth : auth failure: [user=cyrus@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] [service=imap] [realm=netcore.co.in] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error] ------ What can be seen simply is that the realm netcore.co.in is getting added automatically.
