This is the utility for creating, changing, and deleting users and passwords from the local sasl database (usually /etc/sasldb2).You can run it either as root or the cyrus admin user (in our case, cyrus). Check the ownership of the sasl database if you are unsure.Invocation is insultingly easy:
For some reason, the auth.log records whining about being unable to change the database.More exciting options:
So if you are creating a domain-specific user, you'd do something like:
$ /usr/local/sbin/saslpasswd2 -c user
# saslpasswd2This product includes software developed by Computing Services at Carnegie Mellon University (http://www.cmu.edu/computing/).saslpasswd2: usage: saslpasswd2 [-v] [-c [-p] [-n]] [-d] [-a appname] [-f sasldb] [-u DOM] userid -p pipe mode -- no prompt, password read on stdin -c create -- ask mechs to create the account -d disable -- ask mechs to disable/delete the account -n no userPassword -- don't set plaintext userPassword property (only set mechanism-specific secrets) -f sasldb use given file as sasldb -a appname use appname as application name -u DOM use DOM for user domain -v print version numbers and exit
saslpasswd2 -c steve -u domain.com

This is a collection of techical information, much of it learned the hard way. Consider it a lab book or a /info directory. I doubt much of it will be of use to anyone else.
