[HowTo] SASL Authentication Using Courier-Auth - dropslack - 05-14-2010 01:22 PM

by default ispCP SASL authentication on CentOS 5.4 using SASL database on /etc/sasldb2. and ispCP using courier-authlib to keep and store all users email including password.

actually, we don't need / etc/sasldb2 if we want to be able using SASL feature. we can use courier-authlib database to be able using SASL feature. so we don't need /etc/sasldb2 database anymore.

to be like this, just edit /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf file:

Code:

pwcheck_method: auxprop

auxprop_plugin: sasldb

mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5

and replace to this one:

Code:

pwcheck_method: authdaemond

mech_list: PLAIN LOGIN CRAM-MD5 DIGEST-MD5

authdaemond_path:/var/spool/authdaemon/socket

and then type this command:

Code:

# chmod 755 /var/spool/authdaemon/

# /etc/init.d/postfix reload; /etc/init.d/courier-authlib restart
