nice to hear from you this way :-)
This was what I feared all along: the cyrus-imap server looked at: /var/state/saslauthd/mux iso /var/run/saslauthd/mux. Don't realy know why. It might be because I had tried to install the two ( cyrus-sasl and cyrus-imapd) from source first. This must have messed it up. It's a pity I could not find the setting/option that I would need to give to cyrus-imapd where to find the mux-socket. I was looking for it, see.
Thanks again: it works nicely!
wkr,
Gerke

If it is, what socket is it listening on (should be /var/run/saslauthd/mux)? Is /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd set the way you want it (ie. for whatever actual authentication method you want to use on this server)? These RPMs work fine for us on Red Hat 7.2 and 7.3 here (modified to use the CVS code for virtual domain support in some cases). You might want to include the contents of /etc/imapd.conf, /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd, and /usr/lib/sasl*/*.conf as well as the exact versions of the cyrus-imapd and cyrus-sasl-* RPMs you are using.
