Uh... I'm trying to debug an application and keep running into this: DEBUG: Sending: 1 AUTHENTICATE CRAM-MD5 DEBUG: Sent 25 bytes DEBUG: Read: 1 NO Authentication failed: Unsupported authentication mechanism DEBUG: Read: * BYE Disconnected for inactivity.
So is this really asking for "digest-md5" or am I S.O.L?
0.99.x doesn't support CRAM-MD5 without patching it. And in any case you need to enable cram/digest before it can be used from auth_mechanisms setting.
That client shouldn't have even tried the AUTHENTICATE CRAM-MD5 command if server didn't give AUTH=CRAM-MD5 capability..
OK, so the client should have done a capability check first? I'll have to ask about that one.
