I’m still getting “warning: SASL authentication failure: cannot connect to saslauthd server: Permission denied”. Here’s the permissions in /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd:

root@foo:~# ls -l /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd
total 940
drwx–x— 2 root sasl 4096 Aug 19 17:08 ./
drwx—— 3 root root 4096 Aug 17 18:41 ../
-rw——- 1 root root 0 Aug 19 17:08 cache.flock
-rw——- 1 root root 945152 Aug 19 17:08 cache.mmap
srwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Aug 19 17:08 mux=
-rw——- 1 root root 0 Aug 19 17:08 mux.accept
-rw——- 1 root root 6 Aug 19 17:08 saslauthd.pid

Should all files in this dir belong to the sasl group? If so, how do I make this happen?

Thanks for the write-up. It really helped a lot. On my Ubuntu system, however, every time I restarted sasl-authd, the /var/spool/postfix/var/run/saslauthd directory would get changed back to being owned by root, and the ‘permission denied’ problem would reoccur. I found that in the /etc/init.d/sasl-authd script, there’s a line:

create root sasl 710 $RUN_DIR

I had to change that line to

createdir postfix sasl 710 $RUN_DIR

and now when it restarts and recreates the saslauthd directory, it recreates it properly.

In addition, the following settings in /etc/postfix/main.cf may be useful:
smtpd_sasl_type = cyrus
cyrus_sasl_config_path = /etc/postfix/sasl

Specifically the last one when added got rid of my Permission Denied errors.
