Hi, I'm new to Cyrus. As I'm trying to install Cyrus I run into problems when I try to test my installation. Here are my details: OS: Linux Distribution: RedHat 6.2 Kernel: 2.2.14-5.0 (plan to upgrade to 2.2.19) Cyrus SASL version: 1.5.24 Cyrun imapd version: 2.0.16 Problem: First time I configured it to use shadow passwords. I compiled and installed Cyrus with "./configure --with-auth=unix" and in /etc/imapd.conf I had "sasl_pwcheck_method: shadow" First time I ran "imtest -m login -p imap localhost" I got this: [cyrus@crocodile cyrus]$ imtest -m login -p imap localhost C: C01 CAPABILITY logout But I realized I should restart the "/usr/local/sbin/master" proces because it was the old version of a previuous test. I got a connection this time but my password was rejected. Maybe I should use sasldb and not shadow. I changed the line in /etc/imapd.conf into "sasl_pwcheck_method: sasldb" and made cyrus the owner of /etc/sasldb After running "/usr/local/sbin/saslpasswd cyrus" I tried again and got this error: [cyrus@crocodile cyrus]$ imtest -m login -p imap localhost C: C01 CAPABILITY failure: prot layer failure I'm lost, what can I do to try to fix this? Regards, Marcel Loesberg
