Sendmail SMTP Problem

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



After upgrading from RedHat 9 to Fedora core, I have a problem with smtp, due to sendmail now using sasl for authentication. I have saslauthd running as:

/usr/sbin/saslauthd -m /var/run/saslauthd -a shadow

which should use the /etc/shadow file for authentication. However, what actually happens is that each user must have their username & password in the /etc/sasldb2 file. As far as I can tell, the shadow password file isn't being used for authentication. The only configuration file that I'm aware of the sasl should be using is /usr/lib/sasl2/Sendmail.conf which contains:

pwcheck_method: sasluathd

I'd actually like to not use passwords for this since I already restrict smtp to a very limited number of ip's, because everytime a user start's their browser, they have to reenter their password.

Any help would be appreciated.
