Greetings im new to the list dovecot --version 2.0.13 ubuntu 11.10 i want to use dovecot to authenticate my ldap users. My local users can authenticate and send email. Using postfix sasl/tls dovecot pam. I have read many docs/tutorials, which all have a plethora of options and information. my file structure is different than most of the documentation. I have ../etc/dovecot.conf which points to. !include_try /usr/share/dovecot/protocols.d/*.protocol !include conf.d/*.conf !include_try local.conf which leads me to /etc/dovecot/conf.d, which is full of config files. All were traditionally located in dovecot.conf in previous versions. im using PAM to authenticate my local system users. I have read that could adjust PAM, to use LDAP. How do I configure dovecot to keep using pam for local users and ldap for remote ? Do i just add the passdb lines dovecot.conf: passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb prefetch { } # The userdb below is used only by deliver. userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot-ldap.conf } dovecot-ldap.conf: pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password, homeDirectory=userdb_home,uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid # For deliver: user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid any assistance would be helpful. -j -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
