This may be OT, but I'm going to try anyway... I have an old server
which originally had SASL installed on it and sendmail
compiled/configured to use (PLAIN LOGIN) authentication (NOT SASL).
That server also uses NIS to get the user account information from
another machine. Everything works.
Now, I'm trying to move everything to a new server which has SASL2
installed. I configured sendmail to use SASL2, and the machine is also
using NIS like the old one. The problem now is that it's requiring me
to actually use the sasldb file and set up the users individually. I
didn't have to do that on the old machine. It authenticated against the
password file (which was being imported by NIS.) But I can't figure out
why it won't work on the new one. All the config files are the same,
all the sendmail files are configured the same. So why is it forcing me
to use the sasldb?
I have pam set up to use LDAP rather than NIS but the sendmail config
should be the same:
/usr/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf:
pwcheck_method:saslauthd
In /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd make sure you have "MECH=pam"
Make sure you have the cyrus-sasl-plain package installed.
Make sure saslauthd is running.
The relevant snippets from sendmail.mc:
define(`confAUTH_MECHANISMS',`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
TRUST_AUTH_MECH(`LOGIN PLAIN')dnl
