I just thought I would answer my own email in case anyone else has the same setup. I found out there is obviously some type of bug in the -23 versions of the SASL packages so they just won't work. Once reverting to the -20 or -21 versions, everything works great. My suspicion about the faulty SASL was correct, but since there was only a problem with the daemons themselves and not mupdatetest and imtest, it was difficult to see this. I suppose I should report this to the SASL list, but I'm really not sure what to say since the logging information is rather incomplete.

I recently upgraded a CentOS 7 Cyrus 2.4.17 system with Murder and Kerberos and ran into lots of issues with the new packages. What's really puzzling though is although I used to be able to use a SASL minimum layer of 256 (I'm using TLS with GSSAPI for auth), I now must use 1 for the front-ends and backends communicating to the mupdate server. I've run into SASL package issues before (2.1.23 to 2.1.26 was a mess) and had to actually revert to an older version so I'm thinking that might be the problem. However, when I use mupdatetest and imtest, everything works perfectly. It's only when I fire up the daemons themselves that I see:Jun 1 23:53:21 imap mupdate[19865]: couldn't authenticate to backend server: mechanism too weak for this userJun 1 23:53:21 imap mupdate[19865]: mupdate_connect failed: no auth statusJun 1 23:53:21 imap mupdate[19865]: couldn't connect to mupdate serverJun 1 23:53:21 imap mupdate[19865]: retrying connection to mupdate server in 27 secondsIf I grab a ticket and mupdatetest -m GSSAPI -t '' mupdate.test.net with a 256 min layer, I get in perfectly. So perhaps it's a change/new config issue in cyrus-imap this time around?I'm using cyrus-imapd-2.4.17-13 and cyrus-sasl-2.1.26-23 versions of the various package sets.Steve
