Hi there, I've looked through the list archives but the suggestions don't seem to help my problem. It goes like this...
I'm using the default packages that come with the redhat 7.3 distribution for postfix & sasl. (sasl came preinstalled with the "server" type configuration). I then installed the source RPM for postfix and enabled SASL in the spec file, compiled the package and isntalled it. I've created entries using saslpasswd and added the necessary options in main.cf for postfix to enable sasl (notably the enable). I've confirmed this by telnet'n to port 25 and sending a ehlo mydomain.com. It doest respond with PLAIN/CRAM/etc as auth methods. However I don't know why postfix will NOT authenticate. To be sure I've made the sasldb file world readable (to test), however in the maillog file it says there's an SASL authentication failure. The suggetions I've seen on this list were: Go DL some guy's RPMs, or recompile postfix with SASL. Well I don't see the need to DL someone else's RPMS when redhat has provided the sources already and I've already compiled postfix with SASL enabled. Can anyone offer any light to this problem? Thanks in advance! Regards, - Will -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
