How to configure Cyrus/SASL

[dino.swanwick at custserv.com]

Hello,

I am a Cyrus/SASL newbie (BIGTIME) and I cannot figure out how to
configure SASL.  Here is what I have:

SUSE version 10
Postfix 2.2.9
Cyrus-imapd 2.2.12
Cyrus-sasl 2.1.21

/etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
sievedir: /var/lib/sieve
sieve_maxscriptsize: 32
sieve_maxscripts: 5
admins: *******
autocreatequota: 10000
reject8bit: no
quotawarn: 90
timeout: 30
poptimeout: 10
dracinterval: 0
drachost: localhost
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN, CRAM-MD5
lmtp_overquota_perm_failure: no
unixhierarchysep: yes

/etc/imapd-local.conf
postmaster: postmaster
configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
partition-default: /var/spool/imap
sievedir: /var/lib/sieve
sieve_maxscriptsize: 32
sieve_maxscripts: 5
admins: ******
allowanonymouslogin: no
allowplaintext: yes
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
autocreatequota: 10000
reject8bit: no
quotawarn: 90
timeout: 30
poptimeout: 10
dracinterval: 0
drachost: localhost
sasl_pwcheck_method: auxprop
unixhierarchysep: yes

/usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf
pwcheck_method: saslauthd

/usr/lib64/sasl2/smtpd.conf
#pwcheck_method: saslauthd
mech_list: plain login

My questions are:
1) What is the difference between imapd.conf and imapd-local.conf?  How
do I know which one I am using?
2) What is the difference between /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf and
/usr/lib64/sasl2/smtpd.conf?  How do I know which one I am using?
3) I'm confused...am I currently using auxprop or saslauthd?  How can I
tell?  What is the difference?

Many Thanks!
