I am primarily using a combination of webmin, davedap and smartsieve
for server admin. (As I prefer to be able to perform maint from
anywhere, without physically sitting in front of the box like I would
while using Directory administrator.) Would this same capability be
available using libconf (I'm not fimular with that).
We currently use vi, ldapsearch/ldapmodify etc and smbldap-tools, but we want something for sieve.
The reason I mentioned libconf is that it would allow mods to the
existing config files (ie main.cf etc) without losing manual changes,
whereas the kolab script always rebuilds the config file from a
template. Note *all* postfix configuration (incl. transports etc) is
kept in ldap, so if a user sets up a content_filter in master.cf, it
will be trashed by kolab.
Yuck! - I do not like the thought of all config data in ldap. That would pretty much hose me up good!
That would mean all of your 'main-stream' tools (that function based on file configs) will be broken?
- Hmmm... There has got to be a better way!
You might want to take a peek at Smartsieve (I would love an rpm) and the install is easy enough. (It's written in php, and install pretty much consists of untarring, and modifying the config file.)
