Hi guys

I am trying to get postfix + sasl working on SuSE 7.2

I have read /usr/share/doc/packages/postfix/SASL_README 

I have searched google, I have read postfix.org, and
http://asg.web.cmu.edu/sasl/

and I STILL cand get sasl working :-(

The error I get in /var/log/mail is:

postfix/smtpd[20004]: fatal: no SASL authentication mechanisms
postfix/master[28824]: warning: process /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd pid 20004 exit status 1
postfix/master[28824]: warning: /usr/lib/postfix/smtpd: bad command startup -- throttling

As far as I know I have followed the instructions to the letter (not that they are very detailed).

Note: I am NOT running postfix in chroot jail, as the docs said it would be very difficult to do this.

As soon as I get this working I will be adding the instructions to http://www.susesecurity.com/faq/

Viel Spaß
