[Stephen Liu]

Hi Nicolas,


Thanks for your advice.

This line already uncommented previously.  Otherwise "cyradm --user
cyrus localhost" won't work before.


> # Space-separated list of users that have imapd "admin" status, in
> # addition to those in the admins: entry above
> imap_admins: cyrus


Uncomment above line.


$ sudo /etc/init.d/cyrus2.2 restart
Stopping Cyrus IMAPd: cyrmaster.
Waiting for complete shutdown....
Starting Cyrus IMAPd: cyrmaster.


$ cyradm -user cyrus localhost
Password: 
cyradm: cannot authenticate to server as cyrus


Still fail.

I think the problem may be here;
