I'm trying to configure a mail server with postfix using authentication from pam through sasl... I'm using the info from http://postfix.state-of-mind.de/ . 

I'm getting the following error in maillog after doing everything they say:
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: < unknown[192.168.1.10]: auth plain base64data
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: smtpd_sasl_authenticate: sasl_method plain, init_response base64data
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: smtpd_sasl_authenticate: decoded initial response pedro
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: warning: SASL authentication failure: Password verification failed
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: warning: unknown[192.168.1.10]: SASL plain authentication failed
Feb  5 19:14:17 tirael postfix/smtpd[6545]: > unknown[192.168.1.10]: 535 Error: authentication failed

I see that postfix is decoding things fine , but I get no authentication.. also nothing appears on /var/log/messages...
sasl-authd is running and configured.. here's my /usr/lib/sasl2/smtpd.conf file:
pwcheck_method: saslauthd
# This allows only plain, login, cram-md5 and digest-md5 as the authentication mechanisms.
mech_list: plain login cram-md5 digest-md5

Any ideas?
