I recently compiled and installed Courier on a Mac OSX 10.3.9 system, and everything appeared to be successful, with no errors. I was reading a tutorial that makes reference to the 'authdaemonrc' and 'authmysqlrc' files within the '/etc/courier' directory, but there isn't an '/etc/courier' directory on the system. There is a file called 'authdaemonrc' on the system in the '/usr/local/etc/authlib/' directory, but the only place where the 'authmysqlrc' file exists in the the directory where I originally un-tarred the 'courier-authlib-0.58' package.

Can anyone provide any insight? Did something go wrong with my installation, or am I just making some other beginner's mistake?

The tutorial mostly likely is covering an older version of Courier that was from a time before the Courier authentication module was split out into its own distribution, courier-authlib. The names of the config files are still the same, but all of the authentication-related configuration is now found in /etc/authlib, or /usr/local/etc/authlib in your installation.

Cheers,
