Hi,I have a similar setup:
I use postfix as an smtp client to deliver email to our enterprise
smtp server. Since the smtp server needs authentication, I used cyrus
sasl with postfix and things worked fine. After a portupgrade, postfix
has stopped working, and gives some wierd authentication error.
Googling did not help much, and hence I am posting here. Relevant
details follow:

Error in the maillog shows:

I don't quiet understand the first message of "no such file or directory".
I used exactly the same configuration earlier, and postfix was happily
working for the last year or so. Any pointers to fix this issue will
be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
smtpd_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_security_options = noanonymous
smtpd_sasl_local_domain = $myhostname
smtpd_sasl_application_name = smtpd
broken_sasl_auth_clients = yes
permit_sasl_authenticated
But I don't use a db password file. Have you tried re-running the postfix hash utility (postmap) on the db? That's the first thing that I would try.
