D'oh!

I hadn't seen it until now. It looks like that part is working.

root at sashet:~$ which testsaslauthd
/kolab/sbin/testsaslauthd
root at sashet:~$ testsaslauthd -u manager -p <real pw>
0: OK "Success."
root at sashet:~$ testsaslauthd -u manager -p poop   
0: NO "authentication failed"

Here's what appears in the apache-error.log when I try to go to https:// :

[Tue Aug 19 13:09:01 2003] [error] PHP Warning:  main(session_vars.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /kolab/var/kolab/www/include/headfoot.php on line 9

(Then about 6 variations on this set of errors)
[Tue Aug 19 13:09:01 2003] [error] PHP Notice:  Undefined index:  PHP_AUTH_USER in /kolab/var/kolab/www/head.php on line 17

(then it ends with this error)
[Tue Aug 19 13:09:01 2003] [error] PHP Warning:  Unknown(): Your script possibly relies on a session side-effect which existed until PHP 4.2.3. Please be advised that the session extension does not consider global variables as a source of data, unless register_globals is enabled. You can disable this functionality and this warning by setting session.bug_compat_42 or session.bug_compat_warn to off, respectively. in Unknown on line 0

This machine has nothing except kolab installed on it.
