Hi folks,

Ubuntu 6.06 drake amd64

I'm following;

Cyrus
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Cyrus

building IMAP/POP servers.

Packages installed;

Code:

postfix

cyrus-admin-2.2 
cyrus-clients-2.2 
cyrus-imapd-2.2 
sasl2-bin
cyrus-pop3d-2.2

libc-client-dev
gamin

Everything is going on smoothly w/o problem.

Coming to creating Mailbox I can't proceed further;

$ cyradm -u cyrus localhost

Code:

Password: 
localhost> cm user.satimiscyrus
createmailbox: Permission denied

$ tail /var/log/mail.log

Code:

$ su - cyrus -c cyradm localhost

Code:

Password: 
localhost> cm user.satimiscyrus
createmailbox: Permission denied

$ tail /var/log/mail.log

Code:

I can't resolve

Code:

badlogin: localhost [127.0.0.1] DIGEST-MD5 [SASL(-13): authentication failure: client response doesn't match what we generated

I have been trying a day w/o breakthrough

$ sudo grep "^partition-" /etc/imapd.conf

Code:

partition-default: /var/spool/cyrus/mail
partition-news: /var/spool/cyrus/news

$ sudo ls -ld /var/spool/cyrus/mail

Code:

drwxr-x--- 29 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 /var/spool/cyrus/mail

$ sudo ls -ld /var/spool/cyrus/news

Code:

drwxr-x--- 29 cyrus mail 4096 2008-05-24 21:46 /var/spool/cyrus/news

Please help. TIA
