Hmmm, mine loos like this:
$ cat cat /etc/postfix/sasl/smtpd.conf
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain login

also -
$ cat /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd
# $Id: saslauthd.sysconfig,v 1.1 2001/05/02 10:55:48 wiget Exp $
# Authentications mechanism (for list see saslauthd -v)
SASL_AUTHMECH=pam

# Hostname for remote IMAP server (if rimap auth mech is used)
# Ldap configuration file (if ldap auth mech is used)
SASL_MECH_OPTIONS=

# Extra options (for list see saslauthd -h)
SASLAUTHD_OPTS=

I remember having had a glithc with some named-pipe files - e.g.
communication between postfix and saslauthd using different paths for
communication.
