Tim, this was a test account. And no, it doesn't use /etc/securetty. Regards, Dustin

I don't know if /etc/securetty applies to cyris, and it's really not a good idea to have mail delivered to root or login to imap as root anyway. It should be forwarded to another account. -Tim On Wed, 2001-12-19 at 14:02, Dustin Puryear wrote: I am setting up Cyrus, cyrus-imapd-2.0.16_1, on a FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE box with cyrus-sasl-1.5.24_8 RFC 2222 SASL.
