No, should be fine. Did you restart master after making changes in
imapd.conf? Did you enable #define DEBUG in pam_mysql? What is exactly in
your /etc/pam.d/imap file?

Changed but still no mysql connection. :-(


I compiled cyrus-imapd-2.0.16 with these flags:

  ./configure  --with-auth=unix --without-krb --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl

and cyrus-sasl-1.5.24 with :


./configure  --with-openssl=/usr/local/ssl --enable-netscapehack
--with-sasl=/usr/local --with-pam --disable-krb4
--disable-gssapi --disable-cram
--disable-digest





should I have included anything else
