Prepare to be really surprised, then. :-(
I took a look in my /usr/lib/sasl directory and found that it already had a
smtpd.conf file.
$ cat /usr/lib/sasl/smtpd.conf
#%PAM-1.0
auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
$
I added "pwcheck_method: pam" to the bottom of the file (waiting until I get
your reply on why it's bad to use this), and when I connected to port 25,
again I got the error messages I've listed before.
Heck, I even tried setting "pwcheck_method: sasldb" instead, ran saslpasswd
to create a user account, and the flipping thing *still* aborted when I
connected to the SMTP port on my machine with sasl turned on. Argh.
Any ideas?
