I don't have it in production yet because there are other things I am still trying to add to samba4, but my test server has dovecot authenticating against samba4. Without openchange or any other non-native mechanism.
Dovecot supports authenticating against ldap, the settings are in your auth-ldap.conf file. Samba4/Active Directory is just another ldap implementation. between the config files and the wiki, I believe all the documentation you need is there... -- Computerisms Bob Miller 867-334-7117 / 867-633-3760 http://computerisms.ca On Wed, 2012-10-24 at 11:48 +0200, Carsten Laun-De Lellis wrote: > Hi group > > I am currently running a mail server on ubuntu 11.04 with postfix 2.8.5, > dovecot dovecot 2.0.13 and openldap 2.4.23.
