This is from cyradm, right?

OK, what is the setup of Cyrus IMAP, regrading SASL mechanisms? Better yet, set it up to use SASL-DB: /etc/imapd.conf --------------- ... sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb ... --------------- Then, use "saslpasswd2 -c <username>" to create entries in SASL-DB. BTW, I'm in a process of setting up AuxProp: LDAP-DB and it is a head cracker. I cannot opt for SASL-DB, since I need Microsoft ADS integration. Nix. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
