I have pam set up to use LDAP rather than NIS but the sendmail config

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
Thanks Paul. That didn't work. I see the following errors in my
system logs:

Don't really know what's up there. I trust you've got your SSL certs
made OK and sendmail configured to use them? Did you add an entry for
the this user to your sasl database? If so, you might want to delete it
(or start off with a fresh database) so as to ensure that sasl isn't
confused.
What's in your /etc/pam.d/smtp ?
Paul.
