Hi, No, I am not trying to auth to cyradm. I am not doing any encryption. plain text passwords authenticating through pam to a mysql database. regular users are working fine. it is just the cyrus account that can't login. when I do the imtest with the password for the cyrus account it says authenticated, but when I run cyradm I get the above error. thanks, jt ---- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
