I am looking for a documentation, as much detailed as possible,
on the setup of an Internet server (mail, several domains, POP
and IMAP, a Web server with FTP and DAV upload by customers,
may be Zope), *without* Unix accounts. The actual database
should be a DBMS (possibly with three-tier architectures).
There are two reasons for that:
- I want the database of users to be modified by non-root people,
from a Web interface (and I want security),
- I don't want Unix limits (even if Linux raises some) like the
8-chars limit for the login or the maximum number of users.
I have one more demand, which is my excuse to post on debian-isp :-)
I want free software, as much as possible, and I prefer it already
packaged. (I *can* patch Qpopper and Zope but I prefer something
which will not force me to manage a fork.)
Apparently, there are many parts of the complete solution: PAM
<http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/pam/index.html> (any list of
PAMified apps in Debian?), LDAP <http://www.openldap.org/>, but
no comprehensive documentation discussing pros and cons, practical
problems, lists of applications which support it, etc.
