Problems logging in to cyradm

I have all those set also, but saslauthd is not running!? If I issue a find
/ -name "saslauthd" I get this list:

/etc/rc.d/init.d/saslauthd
/etc/sysconfig/saslauthd
/usr/local/sbin/saslauthd
/usr/sbin/saslauthd
/var/run/saslauthd

What should I do to start this? Do I have to create my own start script, or
is there one I can use somewhere?

Take a look at sasl_pwcheck_method and sasl_mech_list, mine is
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_mech_list: plain

and then you probably need
allowplaintext: yes

And you need cyrus-sasl-saslauthd installed and running.
