Cyrrus-imap with generic error

hello,

I have been fighting this for a while. I am trying to setup 
Postfix-2.0.16+cyrus-Imap-2.1.16_1+cyrus-sasl-2.1.17_1 on my FreeBSD 4.9 
Stable server's inside NIC.

Postfix is configured with: sasl2, TLS, BDB_ver 40
cyrus-imapd2' => '--with-sasl --with-openssl WITH_BDB_VER=4'
cyrus-sasl2' => '--with-openssl WITH_BDB_VER=4 --enable-auth-sasldb 
--enable-login'

Postfix runs fine by itself It complains that:

Jan 10 02:47:22 c1529030-a postfix/pipe[35530]: 51BDF4113: 
to=<wrmine at cell.attbi.com>, orig_to=<root at cell.attbi.com>, relay=cyrus, 
delay=9701, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't 
connect to lmtpd: Connection refused_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect 
to lmtpd_ )

I know that the lmtpd socket is also handled by cyrus imap to deliver the 
mail to the cyrus mailboxes that the admin sets up in cyradm.

#ll /var/imap/socket/
srwxrwxrwx  1 root  cyrus  0 Jan 10 03:17 lmtp

Sasl has two users one admin and one user with passwords
#sasldblistusers2
admin at attbi.com: userPassword
wrmine at attbi.com: userPassword

When I run /usr/local/cyrus/bin/master

I get this output in /var/log/cyrus.imap
Jan 10 03:27:09 c1529030-a master[39752]: process started

When I attempt to access cyradmin with:
cyradm --user admin -auth plain cell.attbi.com

I get a high volume of repeating logs. (about 20 lines a second)

Jan 10 03:30:51 c1529030-a imap[39987]: executed
Jan 10 03:30:51 c1529030-a imapd[39987]: SASL failed initializing:

Jan 10 03:30:51 c1529030-a master[39752]: process 39987 exited, status 1
Jan 10 03:30:51 c1529030-a master[39988]: about to exec 
/usr/local/cyrus/bin/imapd

Until I kill master. At which point I get my login prompt.

#cyradm --user admin -auth plain cell.attbi.com
IMAP Password:Broken pipe

I have googled everything I from the logs with no hints.
I dont know where I went wrong. I have tried cvsuping and rebuilding all 
the packages a few times in the last month.
