Hello, I use dbmail for some time now, and interested in the authentication through ldap. A lot of information of my users are in ldap already, including the uid and the password. To reduce redundancy, I would like to use this instead of setting up an new table for the same users.
Now i'm testing it with a mysql database version 4.1.8a. Futher I use openldap 2.2.24. Now I've created one user in ldap by adding the dbmailUser objectClass to an already existing user: # cat modify4dbmail dn: uid=sbon,ou=unixaccounts,dc=bononline,dc=nl changetype: modify add: objectClass objectClass: dbmailUser - add: mail mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] After executing ldapmodify with the right arguments the entry uid=sbon is changed in the way I wanted. I've set up the dbmail.conf section [LDAP] with the right parameters. the utility dbmail-users shows the one user, what I expected. Now I see that the mysql database is still empty. No mailbox has been created which belongs to the newly created user, sbon. This is logical, because I only did something to ldap, but I do not know any other way. Using dbmail-users for this purpose does not work. What do I have to do to create a mailbox too? I use openldap in a master/slave setting. The ldapserver I use for the authentication is a slave. Does it matter? Stef Bon
