Hello list.

I've got a whole slew of issues I'm hoping you can help me resolve. I followed the instructions at http://www.soe.ucsc.edu/~venkat/tutorial1.html to install cyrusimapd. Everything seemed just fine. I tried to install SquirrelMail, which installed fine, but I cannot log in.

Here's what I want to do:

1) I want to use the regular user accounts and passwords for email.
2) I would like to be able to access each account through either pop3s, imap, or squirrelmail

Hi,

after a quick look on the website you mentioned, i saw no point where 'saslauthd' gets installed.

my first dumb question: did you install it?
if you have installed security/cyrus-sasl2-saslauthd, you should have '/usr/local/sbin/testsaslauthd'. please use this tool to check for the correct operation of 'saslauthd'.


the website also mentioned that you have to set 'sasl_saslauthd_flags="-a sasldb"' in /etc/rc.conf, but if you want to authenticate against system accounts, this setting is completely wrong. you should either set 'sasl_saslauthd_flags="-a pam"' (this is the default) or 'sasl_saslauthd_flags="-a getpwent"' to authenticate against system accounts. i never tried the pam and getpwent variants as i use ldap to authenticate.

hope this helps a litlle bit.

regards
Joerg
