you need to get it at the exact moment you are starting saslauthd, all i see in this log is cyrus and cron
Hi topdog, I'm completely lost on building this LAMP server (Server-2) Please allow me providing you the story of this LAMP server (Server-2) which building has been completed. There is no X running on it. It can send and receive mails by itself. I'm doing headless installation on another LAMP server (Server-1) connected on the same network. On booting "pass phrase" has to be provided before this LAMP server (Server-2) can start. Code: Server lampserver:443 (RSA) pass phrase: I can ssh connect this LAMP server (Server-2) on Server-1 running on Xterm; $ ssh -p 2222 192.168.0.52 But it must be on port 2222 only. Then I can login users' accounts with their password. However I can't login SquirrelMail on Server-1 with the same password to users' accounts Nor on Evolution client running on Server-1; Authentication Type check for supported types - FAIL Code: Evolution Error Error which Checking Service could not connect POP server 192.168.0.52 At the beginning /etc/init.d/saslauthd can't start (fail). After on /etc/default/saslauthd/ changed; PARAMS as; OPTIONS making the line reading as; Code: OPTIONS="-m /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd -r" then /etc/init.d/saslauthd started. After continued fiddling around the pending problem suddenly I found /etc/init.d/saslauthd failing to start. Now this LAMP server (Server-2) just freshly boots up.
