Dear folks,

I am a first time user (newbe) to Courier IMAP and have subsequrently run into a few difficulties with the installation and configuration. As such I beg your pardon if I have stumbled over the obvious :-)

I have built courier-imap-3.0.3 from source on a Sun E-250 running Solaris 9, and using GCC 3.3.2 !
No problems with this. I want to use the "authuserdb" authentication module. My configure script looked as follow:


#!/bin/sh
./configure --without-ipv6 \
--with-db=db \
--without-authpam \
--without-authcram \
--with-authdaemon \
--without-authldap  \
--without-authmysql \
--without-authpwd
--without-authshadow \
--without-authpgsql \
--without-authvchkpw \
--without-authcustom

Configures fine and compiles (and installs) fine !

authinfo spits out the following:

postnet[root:/usr/local/src/courier-imap-3.0.3/authlib]./authinfo
AUTHENTICATION_MODULES="authdaemon"
AUTHDAEMONMODULELIST="authuserdb"
SASL_AUTHENTICATION_MODULES="CRAM-SHA1 CRAM-MD5 PLAIN LOGIN"

I then proceed to setup a /etc/userdb file (as per the INSTALL.html page in the distribution). I am sure I am doing things pretty much as intsructed. But ! When all is done I am unable to authenticate my IMAP connection. I have enabled debugging and the syslog entry complains as follow:

Apr 22 13:26:30 postnet imapd: [ID 702911 mail.info] /usr/lib/courier-imap/libexec/authlib/
authuserdb: No such file or directory


Question !

How do I point my courier-imap configuration to read authentication information from /etc/userdb ?

Looking forward to your advice.

Best regards,

Hennie
