Hello,

I've tried adding "asterisk" lines but nothing changes:

=====imapd.conf====
sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd
sasl_mech_list: PLAIN
*sasl_minimum_layer:  0

=====saslauthd.conf=====
ldap_servers: ldap://ldap.ldaptest.com:389/ ldap://srv-ln-repli1.ldaptest:389/

ldap_bind_dn: cn=admin
ldap_password: password
ldap_scope: sub
ldap_filter: (|(cn=%U@%d)(uid=%u))
*ldap_auth_method: plain

I'm still not able to log in#

Hello,

I've noticed that if I do imtest from remote host I get different exit:

#imtest -m plain 192.168.1.5 -a cyrus
        S: * OK  Cyrus IMAP4 v2.2.12-Invoca-RPM-2.2.12-19 server ready
        C: C01 CAPABILITY

Anyway I answer your questions underline.

I've "allowplaintext: 1" defined, but I do not "sasl_minimum_layer" and I'm not sure about the value of this parameter.

I can connect via testsaslauthd:
#testsaslauthd -u test-adm -p password
        0: OK "Success."

I guess LDAP is correctly configured as new cyrus server is connecting to the same LDAP server and it works (I've no acces to LDAP configuration)
