This is just probably a harmless warning; however, I was wondering how to make it go away if possible.
I am using 'clamsmtpd' with postfix. I have SASL enabled as well. When I connect from my MUA, an error message regarding SALA authentication failure is placed in the maillog. The message is sent never-the-less. This is a copy of the maillog: Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32177]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32177]: warning: SASL authentication failure: no user in db Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32177]: 163F1229B9: client=localhost[127.0.0.1], sasl_method=LOGIN, sasl_username=XXXXXX Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/cleanup[32180]: 163F1229B9: message-id=<20090615095314.2dc16...@scorpio.seibercom.net> Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/qmgr[32134]: 163F1229B9: from=<xxx...@xxxxx.xxx>, size=615, nrcpt=1 (queue active) Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32177]: disconnect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio clamsmtpd: 100045: accepted connection from: 127.0.0.1 Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32182]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1] Jun 15 09:53:15 scorpio postfix/smtpd[32182]: warning: SASL authentication failure: no user in db This is the postconf -n: alias_database = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/aliases alias_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/aliases broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes command_directory = /usr/local/sbin config_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix content_filter = scan:[127.0.0.1]:10025 daemon_directory = /usr/local/libexec/postfix data_directory = /var/db/postfix debug_peer_level = 2 html_directory = no inet_interfaces = all mail_owner = postfix mail_spool_directory = /var/mail mailq_path = /usr/local/bin/mailq manpage_directory = /usr/local/man mydestination = $myhostname, localhost.$mydomain, localhost, $mydomain mydomain = seibercom.net mynetworks_style = class myorigin = $mydomain newaliases_path = /usr/local/bin/newaliases queue_directory = /var/spool/postfix readme_directory = no sample_directory = /usr/local/etc/postfix sender_dependent_relayhost_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sender_relay sendmail_path = /usr/local/sbin/sendmail setgid_group = maildrop smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/usr/local/etc/postfix/sasl_passwd smtp_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtp_sasl_type = cyrus smtp_sender_dependent_authentication = yes smtp_tls_CAfile = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/cacert.pem smtp_tls_cert_file = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/postfix-cert.pem smtp_tls_key_file = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/postfix-key.pem smtp_tls_loglevel = 0 smtp_tls_security_level = may smtp_tls_session_cache_database = btree:/var/db/postfix/smtp_tls_session_cache smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated reject_unauth_destination smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes smtpd_sasl_authenticated_header = yes smtpd_sasl_local_domain = smtpd_sasl_path = smtpd smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous smtpd_sasl_tls_security_options = moanonymous smtpd_tls_CAfile = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/cacert.pem smtpd_tls_cert_file = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/postfix-cert.pem smtpd_tls_key_file = /usr/local/etc/postfix/certs/postfix-key.pem smtpd_tls_received_header = yes smtpd_tls_security_level = may smtpd_tls_session_cache_database = btree:/var/db/postfix/smtpd_tls_session_cache tls_random_source = dev:/dev/urandom unknown_local_recipient_reject_code = 550 -- Jerry -- Gerard postfix.u...@yahoo.com TO REPORT A PROBLEM see http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail TO (UN)SUBSCRIBE see http://www.postfix.org/lists.html Have at you! -- Gerard postfix.u...@yahoo.com TO REPORT A PROBLEM see http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail TO (UN)SUBSCRIBE see http://www.postfix.org/lists.html You never gain something but that you lose something. -- Thoreau -- Gerard postfix.u...@yahoo.com TO REPORT A PROBLEM see http://www.postfix.org/DEBUG_README.html#mail TO (UN)SUBSCRIBE see http://www.postfix.org/lists.html WYSIWYG: What You See Is What You Get.
