I'm working in a project to integrate dovecot and active directory authentication for 2 weeks without total success. I've tried so many waysto solve my problem, but no one gave me the right answer.

Hello, My server is configured as follows: FreeBSD 6.1 OpenLDAP 2.3.27 Cyrus SASL 2.1.21 Dovecot 1.0.rc15 I have PostFix configured to use SASL for SMTP AUTH, which in turn leverages OpenLDAP to verify users in Active Directory. I do not have, nor want to in the future, local users in FreeBSD, so I've configured PostFix for Virtual Mailboxes. Everything is working and I'm getting

hi, i'm trying to set a dovecot/pop + postfix couple with ldap authentification. and i'v got a lots of troubles. hers's my dovecot.conf protocols = pop3 login = imap login = pop3 first_valid_gid = 1000 last_valid_gid = 0 mail_extra_groups = mail default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%1u/%u/Maildir mbox_locks = dotlock flock auth = default auth_mechanisms = plain auth_userdb = ldap

I'm a bit unclear on these - give me a moment to ramble on. I should mention I'm using version 1.0.3, my primary backend is LDAP, and I do NOT want to store user mail folders in my LDAP directory. I currently have the following: default_mail_env = maildir:/var/mail/%d/%n passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } # Instructions for deliver state a userdb is still

Hello Folks, I've my dovecot working well and authenticating in my ldap servers. But I'd like configure my users to authenticate in two ways. One is just submitting the username and the other one is providing user at domain.com . I'm moving from a cyrus-imap solution to dovecot and I've implemented it with VD domains. But nowadays I still have one domain at my servers.

I'm trying to authenticate users using MS AD with auth_bind option. Here is my config file: # 1.0.15: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf log_timestamp: %Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S protocols: imaps ssl_cert_file: /etc/dovecot/ssl/cert.pem ssl_key_file: /etc/dovecot/ssl/key.pem disable_plaintext_auth: no verbose_ssl: yes login_dir: /var/run/dovecot/login login_executable: /usr/lib/dovecot/imap-login

Hi. I'm configuring LDAP auth with dovecot (cvs trunk at 14, July) as follows: /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf: passdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } userdb ldap { args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf } /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf: user_attrs = mail,homeDirectory,mailbox,,, user_global_uid = 10000 user_global_gid = 1000 But

All, I recently did a fresh install/setup on centos 5 to replace my older courier-imap and all seemed to go well until today I started to notice that it simply hangs. I use thunderbird and squirrel mail and after a while it seems like I"m simply rejected. I'm almost guessing that it has to do with the session timing out and then dovecot is unwilling or unable to renew the session. I

I hate to bring up anything that might delay 1.0, but the behavior I'm seeing is rather... weird. I'm running rc31, using "userdb static" and "auth_bind=yes". With rc1 (what I had been running) I would occasionally get some "deferring operation" complaints from LDAP, but very rarely. Every now and then it would start to throw "deferring operation:

Dear list members, I am having some problems with a LDAP passdb authentication on Dovecot. Before I forget, the specs: it's a Ubuntu 7.10 server running Dovecot 1.0.5 connecting to 2 different machines running LDAP servers: gold with OpenLDAP 2.4.19 and extra with OpenLDAP 2.4.9 (extra is a replication slave of gold). The initial setup of dovecot was with a MySQL passdb, which is still the

Is anyone using LDAP along with Dovecot where mail is being accessed in the form of /var/vmail/${domain}/${user}? I have not figured out how to extract the domain from LDAP in order to make this work. I know this is sparse information but maybe there is an easy fix. If not, I can post more information. Bryan

Hi to all, I am using the new beta release 1.1. I see that parameters user_global_uid and user_global_gid are no more used in dovecot-ldap.conf. That means that, as I use LDAP as backend I am obliged to se t these two fileds in LDAP for each user even if they are always the same, as I use virtual domains. I see that I can set the in dovecot.conf the parameters mail_uid and mail_gid, but

Dovecot version dovecot-1.0.rc14-7 (opensuse) Postfix is using Dovecot LDA. I'm getting this error message, and I guess it's going to be a problem on my next task, which is to set up sieve scripts.

Hi, I have setup samba4 as AD and hoping to have dovecot authenticate users against it. I am facing challenges though and I am unable to figure it out.

Hola! Dovecot should serve virtual mail users. So I've set user_global_uid and user_global_gid in dovecot_ldap.conf to vmail/vmail. Also I've commented auth the user_attrs field. Still Dovecot tries to switch to the uid that is defined in the LDAP entry. It took me some time to figure out, that the only way to prevent this is to set user_attrs = foo=uid,bar=gid or something like this,

Hi Guys, I've been trying to get this to work for 3 days now, but no luck. I have Dovecot set with an Active Directory back-end. Everything is working properly but I can't get user specific quotas.I tried with both 1.0.13 and 1.0-rc7. All users have the same quota which is set in dovecot.conf dovecot -n # 1.0.13: /usr/local/etc/dovecot.conf Warning: mail_extra_groups setting was often
