bummer, i know I'm repeating myself somewhat but here we go: 0) add debug logs to syslog:
local6.debug -/var/log/imapd.log auth.debugy -/var/log/saslauthd.log # /etc/init.d/syslog restart 1) start saslauthd # saslauthd -a pam & 2) edit /etc/imapd.conf sasl_pwcheck_method: sasldb allowplaintext: yes 3) start cyrus-imapd 4) create a user # saslpasswd -c test 5) check their domain # sasldblistusers 6) chown the sasldb file # chown cyrus.mail /etc/sasldb (or your path to it) 7) try cyradm # cyradm --user test --server <realm from sasldblistusers> 8) IF THAT FAILS... crap. # tail /var/log/imapd.log # tail /var/log/saslauthd.log post the output... also, what version of berkeley db are you using?
