Once we pass NEW processing, then we need the openldap maintainers to upload into experimental to build against the new cyrus-sasl and then we can re-upload to experimental to rebuild against the new openldap. Once that is done, we can upload to Sid. Assuming this happens relatively quickly, we may make into Etch. > > system, /etc/sasldb2 has mode 660 and ownership root:sasl.

I think that part of the problem may be that squirrelmail, by virtue of being web based, runs as the webserver user (usually www-data on Debian systems). I'm not sure what else to tell you.
