If you've trouble getting a core dump, you could try attaching to the process with gdb. For example, immediately after startup you should have: root 30820 0.0 0.1 74688 3212 pts/0 S+ 22:24 0:00 dovecot-auth root 30821 0.0 0.1 74688 3116 pts/0 S+ 22:24 0:00 dovecot-auth -w Attach to the dovecot-auth -w process with: gdb -p 30821 cont <make it crash> bt full Anyway, my guess is that it's some PAM plugin that's crashing.
