I decided to move from cyrus 2.0.16 to cyrus 2.1.0.
I compiled cyrus with the following command
./configure --with-cyrus-user=cyrus --with-cyrus-group=cyrus
--with-cyrus-prefix=/usr/local/cyrus --with-auth=unix
--with-openssl=/usr/include --with-sasl=/usr/local/lib
I compiled cyrus sasl 2.0.5-Beta with
./configure --enable-krb4=no --enable-anon=no
This is after some time of trying to figure out why I continued to get
the following error in /var/log/messages
Dec 7 17:46:30 longsword imapd[29049]: unkwnown password verifier PAM
Dec 7 17:46:30 longsword imapd[29049]: badlogin:
localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1] plaintext rscuss SASL(-4): no
mechanism available: checkpass failed
My imapd.conf file looks like so:
configdirectory: /var/spool/imapdb
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
sasl_pwcheck_method: PAM
reject8bit: no
Which appears to work with the cyrus-imap-2.0.16...
Am I missing something. Cyrus appears to be working fine, so it leads me
to think that it may have something to do with SASL, either the way I
compiled it, or I am missing some options. This is running on RH 7.1
with kernel 2.4.14-xfs.
When I attempt to login I get:
* OK <hostname> Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.0 server ready
a1 LOGIN <user> <passwd>
a1 NO Login failed: no mechanism available
any help would be appreciated.
