Hello,
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)


I am looking at a few other examples and am trying this configuration now:

/etc/imapd.conf

configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
admins: cyrus root
srvtab: /var/imap/srvtab
allowanonymouslogin: no
sasl_passwd_check: shadow

I added a user like so: (assuming I got the -a part right?) # saslpasswd -c -u some-domain.com -a cyrus-imapd cyrus

/var/log/cyrus-imapd.log
badlogin: ip.xx.xx.xx plaintext cyrus SASL(-13): user not found: checkpass failed

however:


# sasldblistusers
user: cyrus realm: some-domain.com mech: CRAM-MD5
user: cyrus realm: some-domain.com mech: PLAIN
user: cyrus realm: some-domain.com mech: DIGEST-MD5


# sasldblistusers2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]: userPassword

So, the same user/pass is in both, but I am not sure which one I should be using and which one is saying that the user doesn't exist.

Any thoughts?

-Robby
