Hi,
-- Christopher Pietrzykowski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> is rumored to have mumbled on Sonntag, 19. Dezember 2004 5:10:33 Uhr MEZ -0700 regarding Cyrus Installation:
I'm *really* new to this list but I've been wrecking my sleep patterns reading and tweaking my Cyrus installation.
OS: FreeBSD5 I have both SASL 2.1.20 and IMAPd 2.2.10 installed.
Here's what I'd like to do: - Authenticate against Unix system users. - Authenticate users in the same domain but without requiring entries in the passwd file.
why? Even though I've heard that it's possible to accomplish that, I'd say you'd be better off if you decide yourself for one of those two options.
Now I believe this has something to do with "sasl_pwcheck_method" in the conf file; but I can't figure out what the two values mean -- "auxprop" and "saslauthd". I can authenticate with a user created via "saslpasswd2" if the value is set to "saslauthd" but I still don't have "saslauthd" running. I don't understand. :(
Me neither. Perhaps SASL falls back to using auxprop if saslauthd isn't running? AFAIK you can get what you want by specifying the following line:
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd auxprop
Note that you need to specify the authentication mechanism for saslauthd on the command line. "saslauthd -v" tells you which ones are available.
The relevant doc file is install_auth.html in the doc/ directory. -- Sebastian Hagedorn M.A. - RZKR-R1 (Flachbau), Zi. 18, Robert-Koch-Str. 10 Zentrum fÃr angewandte Informatik - UniversitÃtsweiter Service RRZK UniversitÃt zu KÃln / Cologne University - Tel. +49-221-478-5587
