Yeah, I don't know. It's not the biggest deal, because it still works
after the second prompt, but since we're on the topic...
These are my details if you or anyone else can help solve this:
FreeBSD 4.3
Cyrus SASL 1.5.24
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl --enable-shared --enable-static
--with-gnu-ld \
--with-dblib=berkeley --with-pwcheck=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl/pwcheck
Cyrus IMAPd 2.0.14
./configure \
--prefix=/usr/local/cyrus --with-cyrus-user=cyrus
--with-cyrus-group=mail \
--with-cyrus-prefix=/usr/local/cyrus --with-sasl=/usr/local/cyrus-sasl \
--with-dbdir=/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.3.2 --with-auth=unix
imapd.conf:
<snip>
admins: cyrus
sasl_pwcheck_method: pwcheck
</snip>
I'm not using sasldb... perhaps that has something to do with it. My
system uses DES crypt libs for the password file, but the passwords are
stored as MD5. Perhaps the auth mechanism isn't even using pwcheck the
first time around?
