I am new to cyrus and have been reading many webpages that contain walk-throughs, examples, etc and have run into a wall with trying to figure out how I am to get cyrus to properly authenticate a user.
Installation of Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.3 on RedHat 9.
/etc/imapd.conf (pretty much a copy of an example page)
postmaster: postmaster configdirectory: /var/imap partition-default: /var/spool/imap admins: cyrus root allowanonymouslogin: no allowplaintext: yes sasl_mech_list: PLAIN login shadow pam servername: servername autocreatequota: 10000 reject8bit: no quotawarn: 90 timeout: 30 poptimeout: 10 dracinterval: 0 drachost: localhost sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd sievedir: /usr/sieve sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail sieve_maxscriptsize: 32 sieve_maxscripts: 5 #unixhierarchysep: yes
I created the user 'cyrus'
# saslpasswd2 -c -u some-domain.com -a cyrus-imapd cyrus
# sasldblistusers2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: userPassword
cyrus-auth.log

FYI, Port 993 is what cyrus is running on, just not using SSL at the moment.

Where should I begin looking to try to resolve this issue?
