Hi, I have Cyrus-IMAP running on a box but I'm getting some errors. Can 
someone please tell me which direction to go with these symptoms?

Jun 23 14:07:16 horus master[29531]: [ID 392559 local6.debug] about to 
exec /opt/cyrus-imap/bin/ctl_cyrusdb

Jun 23 14:07:16 horus master[17383]: [ID 310780 local6.debug] process 
29531 exited, status 0

The master process is running as user 'cyrus' and ownership of 
/var/imap/* is set to 'cyrus:mail'. Also, I'm using pwcheck as it was 
the only way I could get Postfix to authenticate correctly. Sadly, 
Cyrus-IMAP doesn't like this and is giving me unknown user errors. I 
want it to authenticate via NIS.

Any and all assistance is greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Gordon Thagard
