I have looked back and perform the following act, and yet, I am still having the same 
error. 

What I have done was,

1. checked the permission setting of sasldb2
2.recreate the user in sasldb 
3. Since I was a bit worried if my previous installation of Cyrus will affecting this 
"upgrade", I tried to install the same packages 
on a newly installed Linux but still, I am having the same problem. 

in sasldblistusers, I can see the entry,
cyrus@linux: userPassword

I have tried "imtest" with localhost or linux as the hostname but both are giving me 
the same error as follows.

linux:/etc # /usr/local/bin/imtest -a cyrus -u cyrus linux
C: C01 CAPABILITY
S: * OK linux Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.3 server ready
S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMI
C_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFEREN
CES IDLE
S: C01 OK Completed
Password:
C: L01 LOGIN cyrus {10}
+ go ahead
C: <omitted>
L01 NO Login failed: user not found
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0

Can someone kindly suggest what else I might have missed? I sense that I might have 
done something wrong during the 
compilation (wrong compilation option given) but I cannot figure out what it is. And 
is the line of "Capability" a normal one? 
Should I see any login/auth method from this line (I am using PLAINTEXT login)?

Many thanks.
