It looks like saslauthd is not running or testsaslauthd is pointing to a wrong socket. I am not sure where you got your rpm sources from, but I suggest that you get the sources from CMU and recompile: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/
I recommend that you download cyrus-sasl from CVS: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/download/anoncvs.html -Igor On Tue, 29 Oct 2002, Gregory Chagnon wrote: > Igor: > I get this error when I run testsaslauthd: > [root@Lunar]:/usr/src/cyrus-sasl-2.1.9/saslauthd> ./testsaslauthd -u > cliff.clavin -p ***** > connect() : No such file or directory > > > > > > > > >From: Igor Brezac <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >Reply-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >To: Gregory Chagnon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > >CC: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > >Subject: Re: cyrus-sasl / ldap problem > >Date: Tue, 29 Oct 2002 09:22:22 -0500 (EST) > > > > > >Test saslauthd first. cd $cyrus-sasl-src/saslauthd; make testsaslauthd > >./testsaslauthd -u username -p password > > > >If you do not get OK, check syslog for saslauthd errors. > > > >-Igor > > > >On Tue, 29 Oct 2002, Gregory Chagnon wrote: > > > > > Hi:I'm having a problem getting Cyrus IMAP to work with OpenLDAP.
