I am putting together a small mail server/MTA and I need to provide AUTH
authentication using Cyrus SASL + sendmail.

Looking at my OpenIndiana b151a box, it appears that the SASL ver 2 libraries
and include files are already present.

..............................................
# pkg search sasl
INDEX      ACTION VALUE                   PACKAGE
basename   dir    usr/lib/sasl
pkg:/system/library/security/libsasl@0.5.11-0.151.1
basename   dir    etc/sasl                pkg:/SUNWcs@0.5.11-0.151.1
basename   dir    usr/include/sasl        pkg:/system/header@0.5.11-0.151.1
basename   dir    usr/lib/sasl
pkg:/system/library/security/gss@0.5.11-0.151.1
basename   file   usr/share/info/sasl     pkg:/editor/gnu-emacs@23.1-0.151.1
basename   file   usr/gnu/share/info/sasl pkg:/editor/emacs@23.3.1-0.151.1
basename   file   usr/share/info/sasl     pkg:/editor/emacs@23.3.1-0.151.1
#
..............................................


I also had no problem getting a good sendmail binary compiled with SASL support
using the included libraries and header files.
..............................................
# sendmail -d0.1 -bv root
Version 8.14.5
 Compiled with: DNSMAP LOG MAP_REGEX MATCHGECOS MILTER MIME7TO8 MIME8TO7
                NAMED_BIND NDBM NETINET NETINET6 NETUNIX NEWDB NIS PIPELINING
                SASLv2 SCANF STARTTLS USERDB XDEBUG
#
..............................................

>From all of the sendmail + SASL AUTH setup guides I have found out on the
Internet, in addition to the libraries and include headers, I also need at least
a couple binary files that should be installed with Cyrus SASL named

saslpasswd2
saslauthd

These binaries are not on my system, and a "pkg search" doesn't find them 
either.

My question is, are the OpenIndiana SASL packages incomplete?  Or are the
binaries in another package that I just haven't figured out?

If the OpenIndiana packages are incomplete by design, do I need to just remove
them, then download+compile the source from scratch?

FWIW, but completely unrelated, I looked on an Oracle Solaris 11 system, and
Oracle has set up the packages the same way, including libraries and include
headers, but no binaries.

TIA for any comments,

Jerry
