I may be have fixed the problem with saslpasswd by symlink the
/usr/local/lib/sasl to /usr/lib/sasl.
I don't see any error in the /var/log/messages when added user john and
password test to the sasldb.db file.
But I m still can't get the exim pass with the authentication:
...
SMTP<< AUTH PLAIN AGpvaG4AdGVzdA==
Running pwcheck authentication for user "john"
pwcheck: access denied (Userid not found)
plain authenticator:
$1 =
$2 = john
$3 = test
expanded string: 0
SMTP>> 535 Incorrect authentication data
535 Incorrect authentication data
..
Does anyone have any suggestoin?
Thanks
Sam
