Hello all,
I am using ubuntu 5.10 to setup a mail server using postfix,
courier-imap, maildrop, squirrelmail, etc. But I am not being able to
user maildrop with users stored on a ldap server, so I can read quota info.
I first tried to install original ubuntu dpkg from ubuntu repositories,
but it seems to lack ldap support.
Now, I am trying to compile with ldap support, but when done I issue
maildrop -v (the compiled one) and it reports no database support.
Now I tried to export some env like CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include and
AUXLIBS=-L/usr/lib -lldap, but nothing happens.
Can someone help me make a ldappable maildrop package? What´s the trick?
Read INSTALL. That's the trick. You, of course, should be installing the
current version of maildrop -- after verifying the GPG signature, of course
-- from http://www.courier-mta.org/download.php, instead of something that
you've gotten from some other ancient website. And the very first set of
bullet points, in current maildrop's INSTALL file, should tell you exactly
what you need to do to get LDAP support.
Supplying randomly-generated parameters to the configure script, or setting
random environment variables, is not likely to result in success, no matter
what software you're trying to install.
