Hi guys,
When I started making the qmail-ldap version of the qmail-control(5) manpage I
thought about giving up of writing these manpages.
But when I finished it I realized that it worth while because it brought new
information about qmail-ldap.
qmail-control(5) provides a means to greatly compare stock Qmail with
Qmail-ldap, in a manner not done before, showing clearly the simplicity of Qmail
versus the complexity of Qmail-ldap.
Also, it shows that the "THE BIG Qmail-LDAP PICTURE" does not provide accurate
information about all the control files. Just to illustrate this:
a) "THE BIG Qmail-LDAP PICTURE" says that auth_pop and auth_imap have the same
control files as qmail-lspawn: not true because qmail-lspawn does not read
"ldaprebind" while auth_imap and auth_pop do.
b) "THE BIG Qmail-LDAP PICTURE" does not say which program reads the "cert.pem"
control file. But qmail-control(5) will show that for you.
After all, qmail-control(5) introduces a solution about how to properly create
manpages for the ~control/files, considering that a lot of these control files
are read by up to 4 different programs.
I urge everybody to read http://www.qmail-ldap.org/wiki/Man/Man5/qmail-control.
And I need your feedback. I won't continue if I discover I'm working on the
wrong way.
Best regards,
