Hi folks, Further to my 1st posting listed at the bottom, I found out the trick. I must use the password created on running; # saslpasswd2 -c cyrus NOT on running; # passwd cyrus What will be the use of the 2nd password? Thanks. Now on running; $ cyradm -u cyrus localhost Password: localhost> cm user.satimiscyrus localhost> quit it works. But I can't find this new user NOR its mailbox. $ locate satimiscyrus No printout $ sudo ls -la /var/spool/cyrus/ Password: total 20 drwxr-xr-x 4 cyrus mail 4096 2008-06-07 16:44 . drwxr-xr-x 9 root root 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 .. -rw------- 1 cyrus mail 126 2008-06-07 17:32 .bash_history drwxr-x--- 29 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 mail drwxr-x--- 29 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 news * end * $ sudo ls -la /var/spool/cyrus/mail total 116 drwxr-x--- 29 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 . drwxr-xr-x 4 cyrus mail 4096 2008-06-07 16:44 .. drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 a drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 b drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 c drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 d drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 e drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 f drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 g drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 h drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 i drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 j drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 k drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 l drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 m drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 n drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 o drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 p drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 q drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 r drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 s drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 stage. drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 t drwxr-xr-x 3 cyrus mail 4096 2008-06-08 22:52 u drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 v drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 w drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 x drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 y drwxr-xr-x 2 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 z * end * sudo cat /etc/sasldb2 | grep cyrus Binary file (standard input) matches Please help.
