Ok, here i am ;)

I'm writing/implementing my diplom thesis "LDAP for use on schools"

This includes setting up accounts for 40000 pupils in 100 schools
and services like email (qmail-ldap), samba domains (with ldap),
proxies (squid, grand acces with ldap), ftp access (ldap auth) at home  and finaly
an nice, ease to use web interface for the teachers to manage the
classes and pupils in an intuitive way.

Each school will get its own ldap-partition, and maybe
ist own qmail-forwarder/server, samba server, squid server etc.

eg.  dc=schule1, dc=gelsenkirchen, dc=edu

I've setted up an test system and I'm now in the state that
I succesfully have a running smtp service for the ldap-accounts

and an pop3 service for unique accounts in the
whole ldap DIT, but not working for same account names in differend
Schools, eg.

   cn=testuser1, ou=People, dc=schule1, dc=gelsenkirchen, dc=edu
         mail:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]
   cn=testuser1, ou=People, dc=schule2, dc=gelsenkirchen, dc=edu
         mail:  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Any idea how enode the subdomain in the pop3-login?

    Schould I user the ~control/persendhack ?  testuser1%schule1 ?

    or better user some ~control/users/assings

    or virtual domains

    but how tell I qmail_pop to use a different ldap query to select once

        cn=testuser1, ou=People, dc=schule1, dc=gelsenkirchen, dc=edu
        
    and the other time if [EMAIL PROTECTED] want to get his mail

        cn=testuser1, ou=People, dc=schule2, dc=gelsenkirchen, dc=edu


     If I'm setting up an pop3 seervice for each school is would be
     easy to setup, but how could setup one
     pop-server, eg. mail.gelsenkirchen.edu and choose the School by
     the pop-login


If you have more questions to ask about my thesis, don't hesitate to
ask me.
     
I would be happy I you could give me some hints...


Yours
Malte
