Slackware 13.0 x86_64 is released as stable!  Thanks to everyone who
helped make this release possible -- see the RELEASE_NOTES for the
credits.  The ISOs are off to the replicator.  This time it will be a
6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a dual-sided 32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.
We're taking pre-orders now at store.slackware.com.  Please consider
picking up a copy to help support the project.  Once again, thanks to
the entire Slackware community for all the help testing and fixing
things and offering suggestions during this development cycle.
As always, have fun and enjoy!  -P.

#
# saslauthd is a daemon process that handles plaintext authentication
# requests on behalf of the SASL library. The CMU Cyrus SASL library
# is a general purpose authentication library for sever and client
# applications. It is mostly used to authenticate to mail servers.
#
# saslauthd should be started from the system boot scripts when going
# to multi-user mode. When running against a protected authentication
# database (e.g. the shadow mechanism), it must be run as the superuser.
#
saslauthd_start() {
# If saslauthd is not running, start it:
if [ ! -r /var/state/saslauthd/saslauthd.pid ]; then
# Use shadow authentication by default on Slackware:
echo "Starting SASL authentication daemon: /usr/sbin/saslauthd -a shadow"
/usr/sbin/saslauthd -a shadow
