> place an 'n' in the chroot column for each service
Sounds good.
On your advice, I went and turned off chroot, then ran "saslfinger -s" again
(output attached).
I restarted the saslauthd and postfix services before doing so.
You can see that chroot is off for all components.
Further, based on the Postfix Debugging documentation, I turned on debugging
for localhost.
Unfortunately, I am running into the same errors when I test telnet:
535 5.7.8 Error: authentication failed: authentication failure
postfix/smtpd[30480]: auxpropfunc error invalid parameter supplied
postfix/smtpd[30480]: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for
plugin: ldapdb
The error is different in syslog though, it looks like it just isn't finding
the right password:
postfix/smtpd[30710]: xsasl_cyrus_server_first: sasl_method plain,
init_response MY-HASH
postfix/smtpd[30710]: xsasl_cyrus_server_first: decoded initial response

postfix/smtpd[30710]: lost connection after AUTH from
localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]
postfix/smtpd[30710]: disconnect from localhost.localdomain[127.0.0.1]
It seems a less serious error than last time, however, it's still running into
a brick wall when interfacing with SASL, even though the previously mentioned
testsaslauthd command succeeds.
