Re: Cyrus IMAP - Can't write proc file?
Check ownership and permissions on ~/imap/proc/* Should be cyrus:mail and I think at least 750. Dave "H.

pam_login_attribute
Can pam_login_attribute be set to two attributes at the same time in ldap.conf? For instance: pam_login_attribute uid pam_login_attribute sAMAccountName I want one pam_login_attribute for all users and a different one for my cyrus administrative account.

Check this out: http://www.ibiblio.org/oswg/oswg-nightly/oswg/en_US.ISO_8859-1/articles/exchange-replacement-howto/exchange-replacement-howto.html It's probably not your exact solution, but it's a good place to start.

cyrus imap to alias against ldap
Hi All, I have an LDAP directory where, say, attribute sAMAccountName has a value of and attribute objectGUID has a value of . I've got solaris 9, sendmail 8.12.10, cyrus imap 2.2.6, cyrusv2 using lmtp successfully delivering mail addressed to to /var/spool/imap/user/ created with cyradm. The line in sendmail.mc that does this is "define(`ALIAS_FILE', `ldap: -h xxx.xx.xxx.xx:389 -k sAMAccountName=%s -v objectGUID')dnl" I want user to use his sAMAccountName in his desktop mail client config, but I want imap to retrieve the mail from /var/spool/imap/user/. I can create a symbolic link -> in Solaris, but I would really like imap to do aliasing against LDAP like sendmail does when it delivers. So far I haven't found the answer. Any ideas? Dave Base p.s. imap uses cyrus sasl 2.1.15 with pam_ldap to authenticate against ldap. --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
cyrusv2 delivery to non-local mailboxes?
Hi all, I've got solaris 9, sendmail 8.12.10, cyrus imap 2.2.6, cyrusv2 using lmtp successfully delivering mail to /var/spool/imap/user/ created with cyradm. But, the customer wants ~/user/ to actually live out on a SAN behind a windows file server (which I can mount using Sharity). I understand cyrus is not supposed to be able to do this because it needs Unix semantics and a working mmap()/write() combination. And , in fact, delivery does fail and logs the following: lmtpunix[9891]: [ID 860734 local6.debug] verify_user(user.c0539a30a) failed: Mailbox has an invalid format Rather than punt and buy terrabytes of local solaris disk, I thought I would check with you guys for a possible work-around. Any ideas? Thanks, Dave Base --- Cyrus Home Page: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus Cyrus Wiki/FAQ: http://cyruswiki.andrew.cmu.edu List Archives/Info: http://asg.web.cmu.edu/cyrus/mailing-list.html
