I'm trying to get posfix authenticate (for relaying purposes) users with SASL via PAM on woody.
I've installed posftix, posftix-tls, libsasl and it�s modules.
Following the READMEs, I can see that postfix does support SASL auth LOGIN and PLAIN mechanisms:
220 mybox.over.here ESMTP Postfix (Debian/GNU) EHLO localhost 250-mybox.over.here 250-PIPELINING 250-SIZE 10240000 250-VRFY 250-ETRN 250-AUTH GSSAPI CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN 250-XVERP 250 8BITMIME
But when I try to authenticate with plain (base64 encoded: 'user\0user\0password'), posfix complains with :
postfix/smtpd[2134]: connect from localhost[127.0.0.1]
postfix/smtpd[2134]: PAM _pam_init_handlers: could not open /etc/pam.conf
postfix/smtpd[2134]: PAM pam_start: failed to initialize handlers
postfix/smtpd[2134]: warning: localhost[127.0.0.1]: SASL PLAIN authentication failed
I've added the following lines to my working postfix's main.cf:
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = check_relay_domains permit_mynetworks permit_sasl_authenticated
And /etc/pam.d/smtp looks like: #%PAM-1.0 auth required pam_nologin.so auth required pam_unix.so auth required pam_env.so account required pam_unix.so session required pam_unix.so session required pam_limits.so
To be on the safe side, I also added the following lines to /etc/pam.conf
smtp auth required pam_nologin.so smtp auth required pam_unix.so smtp auth required pam_env.so smtp account required pam_unix.so smtp session required pam_unix.so smtp session required pam_limits.so
Both pam files are world readable.
Also, the file /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf contains:
pwcheck_method: pam
and it's perms are: 0644
With sasl over shadow, it just warns: SASL PLAIN authentication failed.
Has anyone managed to get woody's postfix to authenticate with sasl over pam?
Thanks in advance
