> This is the contents of the smtpd.conf file:
## Global Values
pwcheck_method: auxprop
auxprop_plugin: sasldb
log_level: 7
mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN
From postfix.org:
"This will use the Cyrus SASL password file (default: /etc/sasldb in
version 1.5.5, or /etc/sasldb2 in version 2.1.1), which is maintained
with the saslpasswd or saslpasswd2 command (part of the Cyrus SASL
software). On some poorly-supported systems the saslpasswd command needs
to be run multiple times before it stops complaining. The Postfix SMTP
server needs read access to the sasldb file - you may have to play games
with group access permissions. With the OTP authentication mechanism,
the SMTP server also needs WRITE access to /etc/sasldb2 or /etc/sasldb
(or the back end SQL database, if used). "
Have you set up the SASL password file? If not, that's why you're
getting the error. If you have, what happens when you test saslauthd on
it's own?
# /usr/local/sbin/testsaslauthd -u username -p password
It should return:
status 0: OK "Success."
If you'd rather authenticate against the exisiting system usernames &
passwords, change your smtpd.conf file to the following:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
and delete the rest.
You might have to restart both services if you update the smtpd.conf file:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/saslauthd restart
# postfix reload

Greg Groth
