I have another authldap question:
Assume the following setup for a user with a "virtual" account:
LDAP_HOMEDIR (homeDirectory): /var/vmail/whoe...@virtual.com
LDAP_UID (uidNumber): owner of /var/vmail tree
LDAP_GID (gidNumber): group of /var/vmail tree
LDAP_MAIL (mail): whoe...@virtual.com
virtual.com is in "hosteddomains".
This works fine for the delivery of email to "whoe...@virtual.com",
which properly ends up under "/var/vmail/whoe...@virtual.com/Maildir".
Also, the user can retrieve email via IMAP as long as he/she logs in as
"whoe...@virtual.com".
However, I want the user to log using simply "whoever", not
"whoe...@virtual.com". How do I enable this capability via authldap?
Add a second 'mail' attribute to the LDAP record.
Aha! Thanks.
Previously, the record looked like this:
mail=whoe...@virtual.com
homeDirectory=/var/vmail/whoe...@virtual.com
cn=Virtual User
uidNumber=[owner of /var/vmail tree]
gidNumber=[group of /var/vmail tree]
userPassword=[encrypted password]
So, I presume that it should now look like this:
mail=whoe...@virtual.com
mail=whoever
homeDirectory=/var/vmail/whoe...@virtual.com
cn=Virtual User
uidNumber=[owner of /var/vmail tree]
gidNumber=[group of /var/vmail tree]
userPassword=[encrypted password]
However, I'm having trouble adding such a record to LDAP, but perhaps
that's just a bug in the LDAP client software that I'm using. If this
version with two "mail" attributes is indeed correct (please confirm),
then I'll start debugging the LDAP client.
Thanks again.
