i've upgraded my server box from 9.0 to 9.1 and then i lost sasl
authentication. I was using sasldb with postfix in 9.0 and everything
was working fine. Now I can only get a "535 Error: authentication
failed" on my postfix server.
I've read somewhere that the postfix rpm that comes with mandrake is
compiled to use sasl instead of sasl2. Is it true?
Yes, but that's not your problem. Your problem is that in 9.0 the sasl library was linked with sleepycat db, while in 9.1 is using gdbm, so your sasl database is unusable.
My (untested) suggestion is to grab the source rpm, in the spec file change the "Buildrequires: libdb4.0-devel" to "Buildrequires: libdb3.3-devel", remove the "--with-dblib=gdbm" line after configure and try to rebuild the rpm.
Bye
