Hi folks, Ubuntu LTS 6.06 amd64 Hi folks, Having tried a day unable to figure out how to add users' accounts. Steps performed as follows; $ su cyrus Password: xyz sh-3.1$ cyradm localhost IMAP Password: xyz localhost> cm user.aaa localhost> cm user.bbb localhost> cm user.ccc etc. localhost> quit sh-3.1$ all went through without complaint Change to root sh-3.1$ su Password: # saslpasswd2 aaa Password: Again (for verification): # saslpasswd2 bbb Password: Again (for verification): # saslpasswd2 bbb Password: Again (for verification) etc. All also went through without complaint. However on SquirrelMail I can't login to their accounts. $ tail /var/log/mail.log Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[4589]: archiving database file: /var/lib/cyrus/annotations.db Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[4589]: archiving log file: /var/lib/cyrus/db/log.0000000001 Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[4589]: archiving database file: /var/lib/cyrus/mailboxes.db Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[4589]: archiving log file: /var/lib/cyrus/db/log.0000000001 Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/ctl_cyrusdb[4589]: done checkpointing cyrus databases Jun 15 10:13:11 lampserver cyrus/master[3869]: process 4589 exited, status 0 Jun 15 10:31:55 lampserver cyrus/master[4593]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/imapd Jun 15 10:31:55 lampserver cyrus/imap[4593]: executed Jun 15 10:31:55 lampserver cyrus/imap[4593]: accepted connection Jun 15 10:31:57 lampserver cyrus/imap[4593]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] plaintext aaa SASL(-13): authentication failure: checkpass failed * end * $ su cyrus Password: sh-3.1$ cyradm localhost IMAP Password: localhost> lm INBOX.Drafts (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) INBOX.Sent (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) INBOX.Trash (\NonExistent \HasNoChildren) user.aaa (\HasNoChildren) user.bbb (\HasNoChildren) user.groupware (\HasNoChildren) user.ccc (\HasNoChildren) user.satimiscyrus (\HasNoChildren) user.ddd (\HasNoChildren) user/satimiscyrus (\HasNoChildren) etc. They are there. satimiscyrus appears there twice, as "user/satimiscyrus" and "user.satimiscyrus".
