Hi Jon, I have to provide more info on the network here. Network connection:- Server A (a working LAMP server) - local IP 192.168.0.10 Server B (a LAMP server under testing) - local IP 192.168.0.52 Gateway - 192.168.0.1 No port is forwarded to Server B. Both servers have SquirrelMail running. After stopping Apache2 on Server A, SquirrelMail on Server B can be started on browser of Server A with; https://192.168.0.52/squirrelmail then it prompts to; https://192.168.0.52/squirrelmail/src/login.php But I can't login to any user. $ tail /var/log/mail.log May 26 22:36:07 lampserver cyrus/master[3881]: process 4750 exited, status 0 May 26 22:37:32 lampserver cyrus/master[4753]: about to exec /usr/lib/cyrus/bin/imapd May 26 22:37:32 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: executed May 26 22:37:32 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: accepted connection May 26 22:37:32 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] plaintext root SASL(-13): user not found: checkpass failed May 26 22:37:50 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: accepted connection May 26 22:37:50 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] plaintext satimis SASL(-13): user not found: checkpass failed May 26 22:38:15 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: accepted connection May 26 22:38:15 lampserver cyrus/imap[4753]: badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] plaintext root SASL(-13): user not found: checkpass failed May 26 22:39:18 lampserver cyrus/master[3881]: process 4753 exited, status 0 * end * $ tail /var/log/auth.log May 26 21:30:56 lampserver sshd[4672]: Accepted password for satimis from 192.168.0.10 port 33358 ssh2 May 26 21:30:56 lampserver sshd[4674]: (pam_unix) session opened for user satimis by (uid=0) May 26 21:39:01 lampserver CRON[4695]: (pam_unix) session opened for user root by (uid=0) May 26 21:39:01 lampserver CRON[4695]: (pam_unix) session closed for user root May 26 22:09:01 lampserver CRON[4706]: (pam_unix) session opened for user root by (uid=0) May 26 22:09:01 lampserver CRON[4706]: (pam_unix) session closed for user root May 26 22:17:01 lampserver CRON[4716]: (pam_unix) session opened for user root by (uid=0) May 26 22:17:01 lampserver CRON[4716]: (pam_unix) session closed for user root May 26 22:39:01 lampserver CRON[4755]: (pam_unix) session opened for user root by (uid=0) May 26 22:39:01 lampserver CRON[4755]: (pam_unix) session closed for user root * end * I have been googling around and can't figure out a solution.

Server B is also working. I can send and receive mails with port 25 forwarded to its local IP address 192.168.0.52 > What are you trying to achieve?

Its users can send/receive mails either as webmail on SM or on Evolution, the mail client. I build Server B for testing SugarCRM. Actually I can skip installing SM. The building of Server B is nearly completed except iptables and some minor setup. My target installing SM is to test "One Time Password" which is a side test, additional to testing SugarCRM, just added to the main test later. B.R.
