Hello everyone! I'm new to this mailing list, actually, this is the first mailing list I've ever subscribed. :) So greetings to all from Hungary! (And excuse my really bad english, please) I'm not sure if I can ask for help here, but I didn't find any answer elsewhere, so trying this out. I have a postfix relay server and a (local) cyrus imap server on the same machine. Everything was fine until I thought, I change the imap authentication from sasldb to saslauth, to have global authentication on postfix and cyrus. Postfix uses saslauthd, which is configured for PAM. It works perfectly, with plain/login/cram/digest mechanisms, with or without tls/ssl, absolutely no problems with it. Saslauth tests are all fine obviously. So I decided to use this with cyrus imap too. Set it to use the same saslauth daemon, and plain, login, cram-md5 and digest-md5 mechs. Since then, I can not login with plain or login mechs, because they aren't being offered at all by cyrus imapd. I can login with cram or digest fine. I understand that plain login isn't offered by default, only after a successfull tls session setup, but if I understand correctly, the "allowplaintext: yes" option should still force imapd to offer plain logins. But it doesn't. I tried it with different sasl_min|max_levels, to no avail. This is the first thing I don't understand. The second is: after establishing a tls or ssl connection, plain and login are offered, but I can not login with these mechs. (I'm using imtest to test it all.) However, with "testsaslauth", I am able to authenticate fine. I'm quite new to cyrus and linux systems, but I read all kinds of manuals and FAQs nd documentation, and googled a lot, but I was unable to find the culprit. So you are my last hope. If nothing else works, I leave it as is, with digest and cram it works and it's more secure. Or I go back to sasldb, which is less comfortable for me... Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks!
