Whenever I issue this command as cyrus user:

# imtest -m login -v localhost

I get this output:

C: C01 CAPABILITY
failure: prot layer failure

This produces in /var/log/messages:

imapd: could not getenv(CYRUS_SERVICE); exiting

I am running a new Red Hat 7.1 install and have followed the Cyrus Howto at
http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Cyrus-IMAP.html#toc4 closely even though this
doc does not employ Red Hat's xinetd system.  My two pertinent files there
are:

/etc/xinetd.d/pop3 :

service pop3
{
        disable         = no
        socket_type     = stream        
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = cyrus
        server          = /usr/cyrus/bin/pop3d
        server_args     = pop3d
}

and /etc/xinetd.d/imap :

service imap
{
        disable         = no
        socket_type     = stream        
        protocol        = tcp
        wait            = no
        user            = cyrus
        server          = /usr/cyrus/bin/imapd
        server_args     = imapd
}

Can anyone help?

Peter
