Bug 9297

Description of problem:

Mar 08 06:29:46 wb.home.test postfix[2533]: Starting postfix: mount: special device /run/saslauthd/ does not exist

Most likely because /usr/sbin/postfix-chroot.sh did not create it.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible: Always


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Configure postfix to use smtp_sasl_auth
2. systemctl restart postfix
3. systemctl status postfix

sasl configuration snippet I append to /etc/postfix/main.cf follows:

#*****************************************************************
# If relayhost needs id and pw login for sending mail,
# add a line like
# smtp.isp.com Secret_Squirrel:TopSecret
# to a file called, smtp_auth and create the .db file with the command
# postmap smtp_auth
# postfix reload
#
# file:///usr/share/doc/postfix/html/SASL_README.html#client_sasl_enable
#
#*****************************************************************

smtp_sasl_auth_enable = yes
smtpd_sasl_type = dovecot
smtpd_sasl_path = private/auth
smtpd_recipient_restrictions = permit_mynetworks, permit_sasl_authenticated, reject_unauth_destination
smtp_sasl_security_options =
smtp_sasl_password_maps = hash:/etc/postfix/smtp_auth
