    Hi all,
    Having trouble with security features, I think, that I can't seem to
    resolve. I have a fresh install of 4.10 from FTP and am trying to set
    up Cyrus IMAP with Squirrelmail front end. I was following the guide
    at http://www.cse.ucsc.edu/~venkat/tutorial1.html, more for reference
    to FreeBSD as I've completed this mail setup on Linux a couple of
    times ( I admit I could have been lucky :P ).

    So, anyway, I get things installed and configured as I have before and
    test my IMAP as the 'cyrus' user and that all works. But when I try to
    log into the 'cyradm' utility to create mailboxes, I get this:

    %cyradm localhost
    Password: <password><enter>
    Segmentation fault
    %

    with these log entries:
    (This is when I first start the 'cyradm localhost')
    Aug 30 16:47:40 vzwmail imapd[13037]: OTP unavailable because can't
    read/write key database /etc/opiekeys: Permission denied

    (and then when I enter my password:)

    Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: Could not open db
    Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: Could not open db
    Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: no secret in database
    Aug 31 08:13:44 vzwmail imapd[14121]: badlogin: localhost[::1]
    DIGEST-MD5 [SASL(-13): user not found: no secret in database]
    Aug 31 08:13:47 vzwmail /kernel: pid 14120 (perl), uid 60: exited on signal 11

    Here are the /etc/opie* Permissions:
    -rw------- 1 root wheel 466 Aug 30 16:27 opieaccess
    -rw-r--r-- 1 root wheel 200 Aug 30 16:33 opiekeys

    I do have some keys made with 'opiepasswd' (I hope I did it right):
    #cat opiekeys
    cyrus 0499 vz8252 ff3435334004cd3e Aug 30,2004 16:30:23

    #cat opieaccess
    permit 172.16.0.0 255.255.0.0 (my internal network)

    Only thing I changed in my imapd.conf was this from install (it was auxprop):
    sasl_pwcheck_method: saslauthd

    and I made a passwd for the cyrus user also using saslpasswd2 program

    I hope this mess all makes sense :) I don't know what to do at this
    point. I don't understand this opeykeys things very well at all. Any
    assistance is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks!
    Chris
