Hi David, It looks like you have loads of problems :-( Your first problem, is cross posting. This is a qmail-ldap problem, and I am sure the qmail mailing list won't be too pleased with you posting it there. Secondly, you will need the qmail.schema for anything to work with the LDAP server.... ....however, the error you are describing here is due to the fact that your user doesn't have a mailbox - this bit gave it away : 'Sorry, no mailbox here by that name. (#5.1.1)' So the problem is that qmail can't find a mailbox.... in my setup qmail creates the users mailbox the first time a mail is sent to the user. I hate replied that say "RTFM" but I do have to ask, did you RTFM? :) Take note of these sections : http://www.lifewithqmail.org/ldap/#Installation Specifically : AUTOMAILDIRMAKE Turns the auto-MAILdirmake-patch on. No external script needed. AUTOHOMEDIRMAKE Compiles the auto-HOMEdirmake-patch in. You need to specify an external script in ~/control/dirmaker which creates the homedir. It gets the dir as first (and only) parameter. Note: this script runs under the affected user's permissions, so, if the homedir for a system user "joe" should be created in /home, joe must have write permissions in /home. and also : http://www.lifewithqmail.org/ldap/#Basic%20Setup Specifically this bit : 8.1.1.25. dirmaker If you compiled the autohomedirmake-feature, this contains the FULL path to your script which creates missing homedirs. The scrpit is executed under the affected user's uid/gid, so if your homedirs are in /home and the homdir for joe (system uid joe) should be created, joe MUST have write permissions to /home. This feature is most usefull in virtual user environments where all users are mapped to an single system uid/gid pair, let's say virtual/virtual. Then only virtual needs write permissions in /home. The script gets the path for the to be created homedir as first parameter and aliasempty as second one. A sample script: #!/bin/sh mkdir -m 700 -p $1 ...but to be honest, if you haven't got the qmail.schema set up on your LDAP server, thats probably not going to do any good. I hope this will help! -- Thanks Andrew McCall Internet System Administrator I.C.T.
