dovecot - Oct 2007 - In-site migration from /etc/passwd to LDAP

I'm doing in-site migration of accounts from /etc/passwd to an LDAP
directory. The migration should be progressive (not all users at the
same time).

I'm already able to check mail for accounts in /etc/passwd and accounts
in LDAP. 

The problem is with mail delivery. I'm using Postfix + Dovecot-LDA. This
is the error I get with every delivery

dovecot: Oct 03 00:16:09 Info: auth(default): ldap(moya): user search:
base=ou=users,dc=sld,dc=cu scope=subtree
filter=(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=moya))

dovecot: Oct 03 00:16:09 Info: auth(default): master out: USER  1
moya    home=/srv/vmail/m/moya/ uid=29174       gid=101
deliver(moya): Oct 03 00:16:09 Fatal: setuid(29174) failed: Operation
not permitted

29174 is the uid for moya, is the same in /etc/passwd or in LDAP via
posixAccount class.

Any advise please?

Maybe you need to setuid deliver?

Aaaaaaaaaagur.

When you migrate an account also migrate the UID and GID to the user that runs
deliver.
