Hi all,
I install cyrus-imapd-2.1.15-44 on SUSE 9.0; After starting server, i could telnet over port 143
to check. It's OK.

Following http://en.tldp.org/HOWTO/Cyrus-IMAP-8.html: I could run "imtest -m login -p imap
localhost" under cyrus admin user without any problem. But when I tried to set up user (Setting up
users), the cyrus user can not login into IMAP server:

cyrus at amd64:> cyradm localhost
Password:
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server with  as cyrus

The passwd of "cyrus" was setup by using "saslpasswd2 cyrus".
In /etc/imapd.conf: i have:
...
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
...

and server saslauthd works:

cyrus at amd64:/root> ps -ef | grep sas
root     30616     1  0 Mar09 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam
root     30617 30616  0 Mar09 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam
root     30618 30616  0 Mar09 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam
root     30619 30616  0 Mar09 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam
root     30620 30616  0 Mar09 ?        00:00:00 /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a pam


Anyone could help me please.

Thank you in advance,
VP
