SASL and PAM

Hello,

I am using SASL and PAM on Redhat 5.0. I saw your posting on the net. But every time I run testsaslauthd I get the following error
Jul 30 13:59:13 vernal saslauthd[5379]: do_auth : auth failure: [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error]
Please help.

My /etc/pam.d/smtp
#%PAM-1.0
auth required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
account required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
session required /lib/security/pam_stack.so service=system-auth
auth required /lib/security/pam_afs.so
account required /lib/security/pam_afs.so
session required /lib/security/pam_afs.so


Thx Juliyana

 

How did you set up your email accounts? Which email server (Postfix/Sendmail/...) are you using?

 

Hi,
We have sendmail running on this server only as a relay server.

What's the output of

Code:

updatedb
locate smtpd.conf

?

 

PLEASE HELP with SASL and PAM

Hi falko,

my /etc/pam.d/smtp looks like this

#%PAM-1.0
auth required /lib/security/pam_afs.so
account required /lib/security/pam_afs.so

But when I run testsaslauthd,I still get the following error.
auth failure: [service=smtp] [realm=] [mech=pam] [reason=PAM auth error]

Thanks for all your help.
Juliyana

 

Is there no smptd.conf on your server?
