Thanks !
Just looking for a way to scripting the resetting of the auth-cache ..
I noticed the dovecot-auth process does not have a PID file as the Dovecot master has (or perhaps I missed it ...)

Right, it doesn't. Hmm. Wonder if there should .. Kind of annoying to pollute multiple PIDs there.

In a debian machine (running Version 1.2.4)
Could I just grab the pid number from the auth socket:

ls   /var/run/dovecot/auth-worker* | sed 's/.*auth-worker\.//'

No, that's auth worker's PID and the auth cache is in the main dovecot- auth process.

I just do killall -HUP dovecot-auth :)
