Re: accountStatus

[James Tavares]

I figured I'd expand on my original message... I was working off of memory of code I edited a year ago.   Adding additional accountStatus types was easy as pie for me:   1.) First, edit qmail-ldap.h and modify the section about #define ISACTIVE_... #define ISACTIVE_BOUNCE "disabled" #define ISACTIVE_BOUNCE2 "delete" #define ISACTIVE_NOPOP  "onhold" #define ISACTIVE_ACTIVE "active" You'll note that I added "ISACTIVE_BOUNCE2" which I defined as "delete". As I mentioned earlier, this is my accountStatus for my auto delete script. I happened to change the other status lines, but you don't have too. Only a naming convention.   2.) Second, edit qmail-lspawn.c. I hope over to about line 586:      /* check if the ldap entry is active */    if ( (vals = ldap_get_values(ld,msg,LDAP_ISACTIVE)) != NULL ) {       DEBUG("is_active: ", vals[0], "\n", 0);       if ( !str_diff(ISACTIVE_BOUNCE, vals[0]) ) _exit(225);       if ( !str_diff(ISACTIVE_BOUNCE2, vals[0]) ) _exit(225);    } I copied and modified the line ISACTIVE_BOUNCE2 to mimick that of ISACTIVE_BOUNCE. So, effectivly, I wanted to make my accountStatus=delete the same as accountStatus=disabled as far as mail delivery is concerned.   3.) Modify checkpassword.c at around line 279:    /* check if the ldap entry is active */    if ( (vals = ldap_get_values(ld,msg,LDAP_ISACTIVE)) != NULL ) {       debug_msg(OUTPUT," accountStatus is\t: %s\n", vals[0]);       if ( !str_diff(ISACTIVE_BOUNCE, vals[0]) ) _exit(4);       if ( !str_diff(ISACTIVE_BOUNCE2, vals[0]) ) _exit(4);       if ( !str_diff(ISACTIVE_NOPOP, vals[0]) ) _exit(4);    } Again, I added the BOUNCE2 line to reject POP logins along with the pre-existing BOUNCE and NOPOP     NOW! All that being said. I use a rather old version of qmail-ldap. Your mileage will vary. checkpassword is now all but defunct... All that stuff has been moved to auth_*....   Have fun!   -James   --------------------------------------------------------- James Tavares <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sr. Data Network Engineer Log On America, Inc.   Ph: 1-401-459-6294 Fax: 1-401-459-6580 Web: http://www.loa.com/ ----- Original Message ----- From: James Tavares To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, April 18, 2001 7:39 AM Subject: Re: accountStatus You would have to modify qlapd.h and add extra definitions: #define .._TERMINATED "terminated" #define .._BLAHBLAH "blahblah"   And then in the auth_* modules and in qmail-lspawn (I havn't seen the latest code, this stuff might have been mergered into a single library of functions) add additional checks... I remember in my version on the code they were simple one line IF() {} statements that compared the value of the returned accountStatus attribute one at a time to pre-existing ...BOUNCE, ..NOPOP, and ..ACTIVE   You just have to copy and modify the appropiate if() {} statement for the type of action your new accountStatus would like to perform. For example, I added a "delete" accountStatus so that my auto-delete script could come by 30 days later and remove content, etc... I copied the if() {} statement that checked for ...BOUNCE (which is currently "disabled") and copied it and modified it for by new #define'd .._DELETE.   Thanks, James   --------------------------------------------------------- James Tavares <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sr. Data Network Engineer Log On America, Inc.
