OK. I'm trying to install web-cyradm in a fedora core 4 system with cyrus-imapd and postfix already installed. The mail system logins through sasldb2 database with contains user names. Users have been added with saslpasswd methods and everything works fine. Mailsystem is working fine. Now I want to authenticate users through mysql database and I want to use web-cyradm.

First, I have tried cyrus-imapd server works correctly. I have changed /etc/pam.d/imap file and I have added the neccesary lines for mysql and crypt auth. I have added some lines to /etc/imapd.conf to configure cyrus-imapd correctly. saslauthd is using pam as auth mechanism. I have added users to mysql database *manually* because I had users created into cyrus system. I think I have added users correctly. I have used scripts from web-cyradm to create databases and admin users and I have added new users with ENCRYPT commands. Domain names and prefixes are inserted OK. I have compared the new database with another one created for web-cyradm (that works OK) and they have the same things (certainly with domain names changed).

I have tried to login into cyrus-imap with cyradm --user cyrus --server localhost --auth plain (this command worked fine with sasldb2 database) and logs show me the following things:

maillog:
anna imap[16006]: accepted connection
anna imap[16006]: badlogin: anna.localhost.com [127.0.0.1] PLAIN [SASL(-16): encryption needed to use mechanism: security flags do not match required] anna imap[16006]: badlogin: anna.localhost.com [127.0.0.1] plaintext cyrus SASL(-13): authentication failure: checkpass failed

mysql log:
69 Connect     [EMAIL PROTECTED] on mail
69 Init DB     mail
69 Query       SELECT password FROM accountuser WHERE username='cyrus'
69 Query insert into log (msg, user, host, pid, time) values('AUTH SUCCESSFUL', 'cyrus', '', '15719', NOW())
69 Quit

With testsaslauthd -u cyrus -p password -s imap I obtain:
0: NO "authentication failed"

I think mysql authentication is working OK ('AUTH SUCCESSFUL') but something is wrong near pam-auth when cyrus-imap server try to authenticate users and I don't know what it is.

I need suggestions, please.
