We have been using saslauth against pam_mysql for some time now with no problems. To use it though we need to use the -r option for sasl, which adds the realm to the username. I've been re-working some of my management scripts so I can have a central server that issues the commands to the remote cyrus servers. The problem is the cyrus administration accounts can't seem to connect from remote hosts as the -r option for sasl adds the hostname and using user@ connects but doesn't yield admin level privileges even if added to the imapd.conf file. cyradm --user cyrus remotehost <-- yields invalid password cyradm --user cyrus@ remotehost <-- can login but no access, even if both cyrus and cyrus@ are in the imapd.conf file I also tried by assing a new user garycyrusadmin cyradm --user garycyrusadmin remotehost <-- yields invalid password cyradm --user garycyrusadmin @ remotehost <-- can login but no admin access, even if both cyrus and cyrus@ are in the imapd.conf file I also tested with one of my hosted email accounts cyradm --user gary@xxxxxxxxxx remotehost <-- can login but no admin access, even if gary@xxxxxxxxxx is in imapd.conf file Any advice on how to connect to the remote cyrus host with an admin account? All of the scripts connect via imaps as well, which shouldn't matter in this case. ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://www.cyrusimap.org/ List Archives/Info: http://lists.andrew.cmu.edu/pipermail/info-cyrus/
