maybe it looks for an smtpd.conf in another place. unfortunately, this is system dependent. you can check this by intentionally putting a syntax error in the file. if your postfix version supports dovecot sasl, then use it. It is far easier than cyrus-sasl (and it's also more secure since less code is linked against postfix).
