saslpasswd appears to have the correct user/passwd combo.  I don't
know what to do next.  My system is FreeBSD 5.1 with cyrus-imapd2 port
installed(cyrus-imapd version 2.1.15).  My configuration file is attached.

Since you don't show which auth mechanism was used (plaintext or shared secret), its hard to help you. If its plaintext, make sure that saslauthd is running (since that is what you have configured for sasl_pwcheck_method) and configured correctly. If its shared secret, make sure that /usr/local/etc/sasldb2 exists, the 'cyrus' uid can read it an the sasldblistusers2 shows an entry for the user you are trying to log in as.
