Dovecot has its own SASL implementation, but needs Cyrus SASL's headers to bind to an LDAP server using SASL. This is useful to avoid the need to manage a dnpass= in dovecot-ldap.conf by using the Unix socket to authenticate. This is done with sasl_mech=EXTERNAL in dovecot-ldap.conf, and some olcAccess: with by dn="gidNumber=0+uidNumber=0,cn=peercred,cn=external,cn=auth" read in the slapd's cn=config for the LDAP database queried by dovecot/auth (which runs as root).
Nixpkgs is a collection of packages for the Nix package manager. It is periodically built and tested by the Hydra build daemon as so-called channels. To get channel information via git, add nixpkgs-channels as a remote:
% git remote add channels https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs-channels.git
For stability and maximum binary package support, it is recommended to maintain
custom changes on top of one of the channels, e.g. nixos-18.03 for the latest
release and nixos-unstable for the latest successful build of master:
% git remote update channels
% git rebase channels/nixos-18.03
For pull-requests, please rebase onto nixpkgs master.
NixOS Linux distribution source code is located inside
nixos/ folder.
