Web-cyradm connects only to Cyrus-Imap and DB (Mysql) and this settings
you have in conf.php.

I newer used poppassd (always sql). This daemon is always on the same
machine as cyrus-imap? Or it can be on separate machine?
This is a security risk to have poppassd daemon on other machine then
http server because communication (passwords) is in plain text.

In this file there is no localhost entry (only in comment).

This files are only scripts (not needed for normal work of web-cyradm)
and executed only once. Before executing this scripts you should change
also username and password or old imap server name.
I think 'localhost' is best default value. People have a lot of problems
with integration of postfix, cyrus-imap, mysql and web-cyradm passwords.
With this default values they have a little easier.

For now, this files are only idea for some install-script not
production-level scripts. In feature maybe this will be a method for
installing web-cyradm (like i.e. Mambo).
