Hi Martin,

Instead of running that command as root, try su'ing to the user you're trying to run sivtest for...

I had the same exact problem and that's the only way around it that I could find.

Hello all,

  I have a postfix + cyrus + sasl + pam setup, working nicely so far.
Users get and send mail. All account info is in mysql via
pam/pam_mysql as per the HOWTOs. IMAP mech LOGIN works fine:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# imtest -u xxxx -a xxxx localhost -v
S: * OK mail.xxxx.com Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.8 server ready
C: C01 CAPABILITY
S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ MAILBOX-REFERRALS
NAMESPACE UIDPLUS ID NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT CHILDREN MULTIAPPEND
BINARY SORT THREAD=ORDEREDSUBJECT THREAD=REFERENCES ANNOTATEMORE IDLE
S: C01 OK Completed
Please enter your password:
C: L01 LOGIN xxxx {8}
S: + go ahead
C: <omitted>
S: L01 OK User logged in
Authenticated.
Security strength factor: 0
L01 LOGOUT
* BYE LOGOUT received
L01 OK Completed
Connection closed.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]#

  But I'm having trouble with sieve / timsieved. I want to use it via
mech PLAIN for automated scripts/interfaces for my users to put
filters or vacation messages.. Using same account info:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# sivtest -u xxxx -a xxxx -m plain localhost
S: "IMPLEMENTATION" "Cyrus timsieved v2.2.8"
S: "SIEVE" "fileinto reject envelope vacation imapflags notify
subaddress relational regex"
S: OK
Please enter your password:
C: AUTHENTICATE "PLAIN" {60+}
 xxxxbase64removedxxxx
S: NO "Authentication Error"
Authentication failed. generic failure
Security strength factor: 0
LOGOUT
OK "Logout Complete"
Connection closed.
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]#

  I get this in /var/log/messages:


Feb 15 22:30:20 www sievelocal[2604]: badlogin: www[127.0.0.1] PLAIN
no mechanism available


  sievelocal is started via /etc/cyrus.conf:

sievelocal    cmd="timsieved -C /etc/imapd-local.conf
listen="127.0.0.1:sieve" prefork=0


   I'm thinking the culprit is SASL..


[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]# saslauthd -v
saslauthd 2.1.19
authentication mechanisms: getpwent kerberos5 pam rimap shadow
[EMAIL PROTECTED] root]#


  No PLAIN.. But it was (at least I asked for) compiled with PLAIN..
from config.log:


[EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus-sasl-2.1.19]# more config.log
This file contains any messages produced by compilers while
running configure, to aid debugging if configure makes a mistake.
It was created by configure, which was
generated by GNU Autoconf 2.57.  Invocation command line was
  $ ./configure --enable-plain --with-mysql=/u01/mysql --with-pam

  the plain plugin is also in the lib directory:

[EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus-sasl-2.1.19]# ls -al /usr/lib/sasl2/libpl* -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 679 Feb 15 13:53 /usr/lib/sasl2/libplain.la lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Feb 15 13:53 /usr/lib/sasl2/libplain.so -> libplain.so.2.0.19 lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 Feb 15 13:53 /usr/lib/sasl2/libplain.so.2 -> libplain.so.2.0.19 -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 90438 Feb 15 13:53 /usr/lib/sasl2/libplain.so.2.0.19 [EMAIL PROTECTED] cyrus-sasl-2.1.19]#

  saslauthd is running and available, running with "-a pam"

So I must be missing something! How do I setup/use mech PLAIN (and
pam) in saslauthd to be able to use timsieved ???

Thanks for any pointers. I've been scratching my head at this for days now.

  Martin
