Description Gabriel Winckler 2004-07-27 21:34:43 UTC

I was trying to authenticate postfix against a SQL base with crypt'ed passwords
The vanilla cyrus-sasl does not provide this kind of support, only plain passwd. 
Since the new version don't support pam_sql natively (that was used to do this before), I suggest the inclusion of the Branko F. Gracnar's patch that may be found at : http://frost.ath.cx/software/cyrus-sasl-patches/dist/2.1.17/cyrus-sasl-2.1.17-checkpw.c.patch
I tried and it was a clean patch and compile with the latest ebuild (2.1.18-r2).
In the attached ebuild I've added a +crypt flag to insert the patch, but this could also be set as a default patch.

Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1.
2.
3.




I'm using postfix-2.0.19, dev-libs/cyrus-sasl-2.1.18-r2.

I also made an ebuild with this patch for myself. It works perfectly! 

I suggest to call it cyrus-sasl-2.1.18-r3.
