I had a similar problem at the beginning... try to check your imapd.conf file, maybe there is a problem while specifying the uthentication method. Here is a sample I am using for test:

sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain

It works for me. Check also if the libsasl2 is available in the search path (ldconf and so on...)

Hope to be helpful! :)

Hi List

I downloaded the latest cyrus-imap and cyrus-sasl sources onto my
RedHat8.0 system.
I built cyrus sasl without any problems and started saslauthd

Then I proceeded to built cyrus-imap with the following configure
commands:

--without-krb --with-auth=unix --with-perl=/usr/bin/perl

Afterwards I moved all the perl modules to the correct locations and
rebuilt my sendmail.cf as per documentation.

MAster starts without any problems.

However, when I try to enter cyradm as follow:
cyradm --auth login localhost --user cyrus
IMAP Password:

Login failed: no mechanism available at
/usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/Cyrus/IMAP/Admin.pm line 114
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with login as cyrus

I can however use cyradm to administer a remote server, so it seems
cyradm is working, but my local auth is bunged?

Any ideas or help?
