Hi Venkat,
Thank you very much for the reply, just got few doubts in the prototype you have attached.
1) In the first line, you have mentioned there is "/bin/uname" what is this exactly for and in place of uname do I need to give the username with which I am connecting to remote server?
2) Also there is "> /dev/null 2>&1;" in the script, is it mandatory to have this line in the script as I don't have permission to that path, including it may fail the script and can I specify any other path instead of it?
Please don't mind if the above questions sound silly, as I am a novice to unix, I find them hard to under stand.
Thanks for your help
Regards.

saslfinger(1) General Commands Manual saslfinger(1)
NAME
saslfinger - A utility to collect SMTP AUTH relevant configuration for Postfix
SYNOPSIS
saslfinger [-chs]
DESCRIPTION
saslfinger is a utility to collect SMTP AUTH relevant configuration for Postfix. Depending on how you run it, it will search for informa-
tion on server-side or client-side SMTP AUTH configuration settings in Postfix and Cyrus SASL.
OPTIONS
-c If you run saslfinger with the option -c it will collect data required for client-side SMTP AUTH. Client-side SMTP AUTH is when
Postfix smtp daemon uses SMTP AUTH to authenticate itself with a remote mail server that offers SMTP AUTH.
saslfinger will try to telnet to all hosts listed in smtp_sasl_password_maps, if it may read smtp_sasl_password_maps
The telnet test verifies your host is able to reach the remote servers and shows what AUTH mechanisms they offer - in some cases
this is required to debug client-side SMTP AUTH.
Important: By default smtp_sasl_password_maps must be read-only to root, since these maps contain the usernames and passwords to
authenticate. If you run saslfinger as root access will be no problem, but saslfinger will fail if you lack the permissions to
access smtp_sasl_password_maps.
If you want to run the telnet test, but don't want to run saslfinger as root change permissions of smtp_sasl_password_maps so that
the user running saslfinger may access smtp_sasl_password_maps while you debug.
*note: You don't need to worry about saslfinger doing anything with the username or password stored next to the remote hosts in your
smtp_sasl_password_maps; saslfinger completely ignores these informations!
-h If you run saslfinger with the option -h it will print a little help message that tells you about the options you can use.
-s If you run saslfinger with the option -s it will collect data required for server-side SMTP AUTH. Server-side SMTP AUTH is when
Postfix smtpd daemon offers SMTP AUTH to mail clients.
FILES
saslfinger - the script you need to run.
saslfinger.1 - the man page you are currently reading.
