April 2002 19:13 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: cyradm error Hello, I am trying to set up mailboxes and cannot get into cyradm. When I type "cyradm localhost" I get prompted for the userid and password, then it says: application-specific initialization failed: authentication failed % I cannot figure out what is wrong. I tried adding different users as admins and they cannot get in either. I have rebooted my machine to make sure everything has been restarted and nothing. My install is just an apt-get install cyrus-imapd from Debian "woody". Any ideas? -- Sterling Anderson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
