If you are using PAM with saslauthd, you need to be very sure that whatever PAM module you are using doesn't have any memory leaks, otherwise you'll become very sad very quickly.
pam_mysql 0.4.7 which has been patched to allow for crypt passwords and md5 hashes. My previous server had both types stored. I suppose one would be to move to a more stable (newer) version of pam_mysql. However, my patch only seems to work with this version. I do remember trying version 0.5 with not much luck. I have a spare box I'm going to retry with.
If I could convert the md5 hashed passwords to crypt ones I may be able to get around it. This is another reason I hesitant to move to auxprop. Needs a little more research. Any tips on how to tell if there are memory leaks in pam_mysql?
Long login times are often caused by insufficient entropy in the system.
Sorry, I'm not familiar with that phrase. Do you mean I need to define somewhere in the configuration or compile time /dev/random or /dev/urandom? I see the compile option in cyrus-sasl. Am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks for your help.
