Auth issues

Hi All,

I'm trying to use the imapcreate tool, but I keep getting an AUTH errror 
when doing so.

This is the error I get.

hostt at livemail1 maps]# imapcreate -u wfitzgerald -m user.wayne at test.com 
localhost
IMAP Password:
              Permission denied at /usr/bin/imapcreate line 72.

I can however log into the server using the cyradm tool (but for some 
reason I need to enter my password twice ?):

[root at livemail1 maps]# cyradm --user wfitzgerald localhost --auth PLAIN
Password:
IMAP Password:

I suspect that it has something to do with my Auth setup, but I dont 
know what.

[root at livemail1 maps]# cat /etc/imapd.conf
configdirectory: /var/lib/imap
partition-default: /home/imap_root
admins: wfitzgerald
allowanonymouslogin: no
sieveusehomedir: 0
sievedir: /var/lib/imap/sieve
sendmail: /usr/sbin/sendmail
hashimapspool: true
tls_cert_file: /etc/ssl/cyrus-imapd/cyrus-imapd.pem
tls_key_file: /etc/ssl/cyrus-imapd/cyrus-imapd.pem
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
defaultdomain: guff.com
virtdomains: yes

SASL is using pam, and my pam file looks like this:
[root at livemail1 maps]# cat /etc/pam.d/imap
#%PAM-1.0
auth       optional     pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth       optional     pam_mysql.so user=root passwd=pqlbt5lin db=mail 
table=accountuser usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=password
account    optional     pam_mysql.so user=root passwd=pqlbt5lin db=mail 
table=accountuser usercolumn=username passwdcolumn=password
account    optional     pam_stack.so service=system-auth

Thanks
Warrick
