You didn't give us much to go on, such as which version of Cyrus or which authentication method you are using -- saslauthd or PTS module, but here's a guess. In /etc/imapd.conf you may specify more than one server using the "ldap_uri" setting for the PTS loader. From the imapd.conf man page:I'd like to configure cyrus to authenticate via an additional backup LDAP server when the main one fails. Is it possible?
ldap_uri: <none>Full details on the PTS loader options are in the imapd.conf man page.
Contains a list of the URLs of all the LDAP servers when using the LDAP PTS module.
If you are using saslauthd, then the proper parameter is ldap_servers in /etc/saslauthd.conf, which takes a space delimited list of ldap URIs:
ldap_servers: ldap://ldap1.example.com ldap://ldap2.example.comYou may find full details of the configuration of saslauthd in the LDAP_SASLAUTHD file, which is part of the cyrus_sasl distribution. On many systems with binary installations you may find this file somewhere like /usr/share/doc/cyrus-sasl-2.1.22/LDAP_SASLAUTHD
