Binary package hint: sasl2-bin
Ubuntu: 8.04.1
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-18ubuntu2
The Cyrus IMAP server runs as the user cyrus. But the /etc/sasl2db does not provide sufficient permissions for direct access by the IMAP server. saslauthd has no problems as it runs as root.
Fix: chown cyrus.sasl /etc/sasl2db |
Binary package hint: sasl2-bin
Ubuntu: 8.04.1
Version: 2.1.22.dfsg1-18ubuntu2
The Cyrus IMAP server runs as the user cyrus. But the /etc/sasl2db does not provide sufficient permissions for direct access by the IMAP server. saslauthd has no problems as it runs as root.
This file needs to be in the sasl group so that uses of the DB can access it. This will also break Postfix's use of cyrus-sasl2 for SMTP Auth. |

I can't find anything in the package diff to explain this regression *or* the fix, but I've tested an install of the package on jaunty and the permissions on /etc/sasldb2 are set correctly by default; so I think this should be considered resolved for jaunty. |
