Problem restoring cyrus environment on backup machine

[Nathan Wiebe]

 Hi, I've setup a Cyrus server (Invoca rpms 2.2.3) on RHEL 3.  I'm backing up 
all our email, and testing the restore on a second machine.

 I'm having trouble authenticating users on the backup machine using 
sasl_pwcheck_method:auxprop (/etc/sasldb2).  When I try to authenticate 
agaist the imap server, my maillog tells me "... SASL(13): user not found: 
checkpass failed".  I've concluded this is because the realm/domain is 
different on the production and backup machines.  When I create a new user on 
the backup machine, in the same manner as on the production machine, it works 
just fine.  Of course sasldblistusers2 reports different realms for the 
users.

 The part that I don't understatd is that I've turned on virtual domains 
in /etc/imapd.conf and I still can't authenticate as 
user at full.name.of.production.machine on the backup machine.

 Am I missing something?
