hey list,
# quick details you should know:
cyrus-imapd-2.0.15
cyrus-sasl-1.5.24
redhat 6.2 - kernel 2.4.6
I'm a first time user of cyrus-imap and i'm trying to get it working like
everyone else! I've scoured the mailing list for an answer to my problems
but have seen no one with a similar situation. And If I don't have this
issue resolved today, i'm in hot water!
You can view my configuration below. My main problem as of now is no
response from the imap server. Both with
% imtest -m login -u cyrus -p imap localhost
C: C01 CAPABILITY
and with
% telnet localhost imap
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to pico.commaflex.com
Escape character is '^]'.
imtest produces this line in /var/log/messages
Jul 16 09:17:20 pico master[692]: process 698 exited, signaled to death by
11
(as of now this is the only error message i've been able to produce in my
logs).
I have succesfully added the user cyrus (along with several others) to the
sasldb (which for some reason I can not locate. it is not in /etc/sasldb.
the only libraries i seem to have installed are ones in /usr/local/lib/sasl
i.e. /usr/local/lib/libsasl.so.7.1.8 ). I believe they where successfully
added because I can run this
% sasldblistusers | sort
user: admin03 realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: CRAM-MD5
user: admin03 realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: DIGEST-MD5
user: admin03 realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: PLAIN

user: cyrus realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: CRAM-MD5
user: cyrus realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: DIGEST-MD5
user: cyrus realm: pico.commaflex.com mech: PLAIN
Also I am starting the server using both
%./master &
and
%./master -D
neither of which produce any results in /var/log/messages besides

/etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
admins: cyrus root
allowanonymouslogin: no
sasl_passwd_check: passwd
I believe all my permissions are set correctly cyrus/mail owns all of
/var/imap and /var/spool/imap
Any help would be very much appreciated!

"It is not the critic who counts: Not the man who points out how the strong
man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The
credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred
by dust and sweat and blood: Who strives valiantly: Who errors, and comes
short again and again: Because there is no effort without error and
shortcoming: But who does actually strive to do the deeds: Who knows the
great enthusiasms, the great devotions: Who spends himself in a worthy
cause, who at the best knos in the end the triumphs of high achievement and
who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that
his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither
victory nor defeat." -- Theodore Roosevelt
