FreeBSD - Cyrus Imapd2 - Configuration/Operation

Ok what have I done wrong? I think it may be a configuration problem but I
don't know enough about cyrus to confirm where the fault is.

 

 

OS = FreeBSD 5.2.1

Installed "/usr/ports/security/cyrus-sasl" (make install)

Installed "/usr/ports/mail/cyrus-imapd2" (make install)

 

Ran "/usr/local/cyrus/bin/mkimap"

Added 'cyrus_imapd_enable="YES"' to "/etc/rc.conf"

 

chmod 647 /etc/opiekeys          (To stop error messages where can not
read/write opiekey)

 

Rebooted - All looking good

 

 

SU'd to cyrus

Ran "saslpasswd2 -c cyrus" and set password

Ran "saslpasswd2 -c jdoe" and set password

 

Although this appears to work ok, I notice in my error messages
(saslpasswd2: Couldn't update db)

 

 

If I run sasldblistusers2 I get.

 

%sasldblistusers2

cyrus at domain.co.uk: userPassword

jdoe at domain.co.uk: userPassword

 

I was under the impression I should have 2 lines for each user

 

 

 

If I ignore this and try to go further.

 

%cyradm localhost

Password:

localhost> cm user.jdoe

createmailbox: Permission denied

 

Error message log shows imapd[580]: no user in db

 

 

And of course if I then try to pop or imap in to the accounts I get..

 

* OK domain.co.uk Cyrus IMAP4 v2.1.16 server ready

 

+OK domain.co.uk Cyrus POP3 v2.1.16 server ready
<679887598.1103635518 at domain.co.uk>

 

Which shows the servers are running.

 

I can Imap in to cyrus externally and if I su in to cyrus I can imtest in
ok. But there are no folders or content. I can not Pop3 in to cyrus.

 

This is the only user that I can do this for.

 

 

I know that I'm a bit new to this, but I'm not going to let it beat me.

Any ideas?
