I'm in the early stages of doing something similar, moving an old 2.4.x 
to 3.4, across operating systems too - from an old NetBSD server to a 
new FreeBSD 13 server. Lots of little, annoying changes.   Also, sendmail 
to postfix!   Easy!   Erm ...

Anyway ...

I've copied over my old sasldb password database but it doesn't seem to 
like it much. I can't log in using it.   My old server was set up with 
unix domain sep, maybe that's a problem? I'm kinda guessing ...

Oddly, when I create a raw, new sasldb, it works, sorta - oddly enough, 
but reports that it's a berkeley DB, I thought this wasn't supported 
anymore?

# file sasldb*
sasldb.db:                   Berkeley DB 1.85 (Hash, version 2, native byte-order)
sasldb2.berkeleydb: Berkeley DB 1.85 (Hash, version 2, native byte-order)

By "sorta" I can log in, but cannot create any mailboxes.   Cyrus has 
write permission in /var/imap and /var/spool/imap (the right directories 
according to the FreeBSD's locations in cyrus.conf/imapd.conf)

Is there some magic I can use to check the format of the copied over 
sasldb database and mash it into shape so new saslauthd will read it? Or 
at least check it and report meaningful errors?   I can create new users 
if I have to, and get them all to reset their passwords, but I'd prefer 
not to unless there's no alternate.

Thanks!

Carl
