I was digging through some of the archives and ran into someone who was having the same problem, but for completely different reasons....i think.

dovecot: Nov 02 07:58:51 Info: Dovecot starting up dovecot: Nov 02 07:58:52 Error: Auth process died too early - shutting down dovecot: Nov 02 07:58:52 Error: child 27673 (login) killed with signal 11

I'm making some slow progress. It seemd to be better after I've added a configuration option for cyrus-sasl2 support and set the auth_userdb = passwd.

It loads.

but logging in is another matter entirely.

I can't seem to authenticate.

Found the strace segment that has the response 'NO Authentication failed'

srw-rw-rw- /var/run/.nscd_socket drwxr-xr-x /home/tallison/Maildir

My log shows: imap-login: .. Warning Killed with signal 2

And I can use the user/passwd listed to login at the terminal and via SSH. Don't worry, this is behind a firewall right now and this specific account will be converted to a spam-trap once I launch so I really don't care about having a password exposed right now.

I'm getting closer.....
