SASLAUTHD with PAM
I have centos 4.6. with postfix version 2.5.2. I am trying to have sasl configured for plain text authentication repaying, but having trouble implementing it.
My postfix Log says (/var/log/varlog) : Jun 9 14:09:19 postfix/smtpd[473]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms SASL message (saslauthd -V): saslauthd 2.1.22 authentication mechanisms: getpwent kerberos5 rimap shadow I want to use PAM for authentication of SMTP. Please help. Thanks a Million in advance! onik |
From your output there, you would possibly need to compile pam support in saslauthd ... then you can enable pam with the option "-a pam" when starting saslauthd...

Dovecot
Hello,
Now I am trying to use dovecot for sasl rather than saslauthd. I have installed Dovecot. It is working fine for POP when I telnet to Port 110. The postconf -a command also gives me dovecot. [root@ ~]# postconf -a cyrus dovecot However when I add smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot in the main.cf of postfix, postfix goes blank on telnet to port 25. When I try to add dovecot SASL code in dovecot.conf it says Error in configuration file /etc/dovecot.conf line 25: Expecting '=' ----- Dovecot Configuration ----- protocols = imap pop3 imap_listen = [::] pop3_listen = [::] imaps_listen = pop3s_listen = ssl_disable = yes login_dir = /var/run/dovecot-login login = imap login = pop3 mbox_locks = fcntl #auth = default #auth_mechanisms = plain #auth_userdb = passwd #auth_passdb = pam #auth_user = root auth default { mechanisms = plain login passdb pam { } userdb passwd { } user = root socket listen { client { path = /var/spool/postfix/private/auth mode = 0660 user = postfix group = postfix } } } Thanks !
