Hello there. I have built and installed Cyrus 1.6.22 on FreeBSD 4.2-RELEASE.

When I telnet, I get:

hobbit# telnet localhost imap
Trying 127.0.0.1...
Connected to localhost.kcis.com.
Escape character is '^]'.
* OK gw.kcis.com Cyrus IMAP4 v1.6.22 server ready
. logout
* BYE LOGOUT received
. OK Completed
Connection closed by foreign host.

This seems OK.

When I run IMTEST, I get the following:

hobbit# /usr/local/bin/imtest -m login -p imap localhost
C: C01 CAPABILITY
S: * OK gw.kcis.com Cyrus IMAP4 v1.6.22 server ready
S: * CAPABILITY IMAP4 IMAP4rev1 ACL QUOTA LITERAL+ NAMESPACE UIDPLUS
X-NON-HIERARCHICAL-RENAME NO_ATOMIC_RENAME UNSELECT
S: C01 OK Completed
Password:
+ go ahead
L01 NO Login failed: generic failure
Authenticated.
Security strength factor: 0

The error (generic failure)  has stumped me.

When I run cyradm localhost, I get the following:

hobbit# cyradm  localhost
Password:
application-specific initialization failed: authentication failed


And, again, I and stumped with (authentication failed)....
---


Please, can someone kindly point me in the right direction.

Jerry
