Hello,

Hi Alain,

I had already a mail exchange on the subject a few weeks ago with Peter. My Cyrus-IMAP server on an Intel SuSE-7.3 just crashed (RAM problem). I managed to install a backup server on a G3 but I have problem using it because the SuSE-PPC rpm packages for Cyrus-IMAP and Cyrus-SASL are apparently uncomplete.

Peter Poeml send me the url ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/people/poeml/7.3/db-3.1.17-100.rpm and the package solved a first problem (cyradm did not work at first) but I still have a problem of authentication (I can only make a "plain" authentication, sasl seems inoperant).

Peter send me some way to solve that but with my other problem I lost the message.

Could he or someone else tell me where I could find a complete package for Cyrus-IMAP and Cyrus-SASL for SuSE-7.3-PPC?

I did not make any new packages aside form the db one. My last suggestion was this:

Apparently we don't have the problem here.

We have just tested it on 7.3 on an iBook and it works.

Our suspicion is that you *copied* your databases from the intel machine, but they are not binary compatible (as far as I know, the libdb uses a binary incompatible format on different acrhitectures :-(( ) It might be possible to dump the database and load them on the PPC machine. You could install ap2/db-utils.rpm and try db_dump and db_load.

Did you try it with fresh databases? (Was that problem solved?) Peter -- VFS: Busy inodes after unmount. Self-destruct in 5 seconds. Have a nice day...
