Hi. I have been using various clients to connect to my sendmail |
| 2 |
server using port 587 and using starttls to encrypt the connections |
| 3 |
and then using the plain mechanism to send the user name and password |
| 4 |
to authenticate. |

Last day or so this has stopped working -- I don't know that I changed |
| 7 |
anything (famous last words), but I do see the following if I run |
| 8 |
saslauthd -v |
| 9 |
saslauthd 2.1.28 |
| 10 |
authentication mechanisms: sasldb getpwent pam rimap shadow |
| 11 |
but I have in my Sendmail.conf file in /usr/lib64/sasl2 |
| 12 |
pwcheck_method: saslauthd |
| 13 |
allowanonymouslogin: 0 |
| 14 |
allowplaintext: 1 |
| 15 |
mech_list: EXTERNAL DIGEST-MD5 CRAM-MD5 LOGIN PLAIN |
| 16 |
log_level: 3 |
| 17 |
# |
| 18 |
and this seems to be why if I run sendmail at a high enough loglevel |
| 19 |
I get the message saying |
| 20 |
authwarning: no mechanisms. |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
So, after all that, anyone have an idea as to how to fix? |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
Thanks. |
