Hi, when i write this code : Code: PARAMS="-m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r" in the /etc/default/saslauthd to activate saslauthd and I do : /etc/init.d/saslauthd force-reload i am an error : Salsauthd authentication : failed sorry but I'm not speaking english very well
Does this happen when you send an email? What's the exact error message from the mail log? What's the output of Code: ps aux|grep saslauthd ?

Kill the existing saslauthd processes: Code: kill -9 3573 kill -9 3574 kill -9 3575 kill -9 3576 kill -9 3577 and start saslauthd: Code: /etc/init.d/saslauthd start
This works only until reboot. Does not solve problem with acessing pop3 with email client, neither with webmail. After reboot, /etc/init.d/saslauthd stop or start or restart do not work again.
This is easy to fix edit the file: /etc/init.d/saslauthd find this line: Code: PIDFILE=/var/run/$NAME/saslauthd.pid change it to: Code: PIDFILE=/var/spool/postfix/var/run/$NAME/saslauthd.pid This is because the pidfile is created inside the jail, but the init script looks for an not chrooted sasl pidfile.
problem solved??? Hi, Does this solve the problem? pwcheck_method: saslauthd auxprop mech_list: plain login allow_plaintext: true auxprop_plugin: mysql sql_hostnames: localhost sql_user: *** sql_passwd: *** sql_database: *** sql_select: select password from users where email = '%u' sql_verbose: yes With this I don't have "postfix/smtpd: _sasl_plugin_load failed on sasl_auxprop_plug_init for plugin: sql" BUT I do receive "postfix/smtpd: sql auxprop plugin using mysql engine" How can I get rid of this message too???
Thank You Falko for confirming it. I just want to know if there's some way I do not receive this message again without disabling it in logcheck. I hope my previous message will solve some problems. BTW: I saw a new postfix comming out on backports. Is there some howto which is as extended as yours for this version? Thanks in advance
No, but you can use mine, but keep this in mind: The format of the cf files has changed from Postfix 2.1 to 2.2. For example, on Postfix prior to 2.2, /etc/postfix/mysql-virtual_domains.cf looks like this: Code: user = mail_admin password = mail_admin_password dbname = mail table = domains select_field = 'virtual' where_field = domain hosts = 127.0.0.1 Starting with 2.2, the file looks like this: Code: user = mail_admin password = mail_admin_password dbname = mail query = SELECT virtual FROM domains WHERE domain='%s' hosts = 127.0.0.1 It should be easy to adopt this for the other cf files.
Maybe this can help (using shadow) 1. if you use chrooted then edit /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf add -> saslauthd_path: /var/run/sasl2/mux 2. stop saslauthd then start saslauthd using this command: saslauthd -m var/spool/postfix/var/run/sasl2-a shadow
