    This largely depends on the authentication method used. If not
    specified, cyradm will try to negotiate the best method available. You
    can specify the auth method with "--auth=<mech>" Now, here is a quick
    auth-map:

    MECH
    ---------------------------------------------------------------
    PLAIN (depends on "pwcheck_method:" in imapd.conf, can
    be "auxprop", "saslauthd" or "pwcheckd")
    CRAM-MD5 uses SASL-DB2
    DIGEST-MD5 uses SASL-DB2
    KERBEROS_IV Kerberos 4 framework
    GSSAPI Kerberos 5 framework
    OTP One-Time Passwords, stored in SASL-DB2
    NTLM Either Windows NT Domain or SASL-DB (fallback)
    SRP ??
    LOGIN SASL-DB2
    ----------------------------------------------------------------
    "auxprop" is a DB, either a local SASL-DB2 or SQL (MySQL
    and PgSQL)
    "pwcheckd" is an osoleted daemod to check user/pass against
    system accounts
    "saslauthd" can check against a variety of sources, local
    accounts, PAM, LDAP, SASL-DB2, Kerberos,...

    Nix.
