I did change the password (and it was not the root-password).

No, they give all:  0: OK "Success." when I do it as root or as user cyrus.

But when I execute "testsaslauthd" as another user, it fails with a
"connect() : Permission denied".
But this is also the case on the other machine what works correct.

sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
sasl_minimum_layer: 0
#sasl_maximum_layer: 256
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
#sasl_auxprop_plugin: sasldb
sasl_auto_transition: no

/etc/default/saslauthd:
START=yes
MECHANISMS="pam"
MECH_OPTIONS=""
THREADS=5
OPTIONS="-c"

Maybe this is important:
sigmund:~# ls -ld /var/run/saslauthd
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 37 2009-07-22 14:01 /var/run/saslauthd ->
/var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/
sigmund:~# ls -ld /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/
drwx--x--- 2 root sasl 200 2009-07-22 14:02
/var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/
sigmund:~# ls -l /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd/
total 929
-rw------- 1 root root      0 2009-07-22 14:02 cache.flock
-rw------- 1 root root 945152 2009-07-22 14:02 cache.mmap
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root      0 2009-07-22 14:02 mux
-rw------- 1 root root      0 2009-07-22 14:02 mux.accept
-rw------- 1 root root      6 2009-07-22 14:02 saslauthd.pid

Thanks for your help!
