I have some more information to offer.
If I try to start saslauthd by hand, like this:
saslauthd -m /var/run/mux -a pam
and then do this:
echo 1 > /var/run/mux
I get:
bash: /var/run/mux: No such device or address
Isn't that a bit odd? Perhaps that is what my error is really about?
I've tried adding all my binaries and libraries in the PATH (I have
--prefix set to a non-standard place) but that didn't seem to help,
either.
If anybody could shed any light on this, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,
Erik.
