Correct.

No. You could generate the passwd-file based on data in LDAP.



[Dovecot] userdb multiple databases

2012-08-20 Thread Angel L. Mateo

Hello,

	I'm trying to configure per user plugins. My original passdb and userdb 
is in a ldap directory (using userdb with prefetch).


	To configure per user plugins (in fact, I want to enable quota plugin 
for some users) I need to configure mail_plugins attribute in the userdb.


	The problem is that I don't know any ldap attribute to store this 
information (is there any schema with includes an attribute for this). 
So I want to configure it in a passwd-file file.


	My problem is that I don't know if I can chain userdb databases. I know 
I can configure multiple databases, but as far as I know, they are 
looked in order, so if the user is found in the first one, then is no 
look for the user in the second one, so I have to configure all user's 
attributes in the passwd-file database.


Is there any way to chain these lookups?
