Hi, I run dovecot on Solaris 10, with authentication to Active Directory, just fine. I make my Solaris system a Kerberos client to AD, then then use PAM to allow authentication of users to AD. For information on how to kerberize a Sun box (the same idea should work with Linux and other versions of UNIX), see:
http://www.connectathon.org/seam1.0/BOOK.htm Read "How to Configure a SEAM client using a Win 2K KDC". This information still works with AD 2003. After getting your UNIX system to be a Kerberos client of AD, then you will want to modify your /etc/pam.conf file to authenticate via Kerberos. For Sun, the lines in your pam.conf file look like: other auth requisite pam_authtok_get.so.1 debug other auth required pam_dhkeys.so.1 debug other auth required pam_unix_cred.so.1 debug other auth sufficient pam_krb5.so.1 debug other auth required pam_unix_auth.so.1 debug I can send you a complete pam.conf for Solaris 10 if needed. I don't use LDAP based authentication because I've never figured it out. But it can probably be done. Jeff Earickson Colby College On Mon, 2 Apr 2007, Claudio Roberto Prateat wrote:
