Brent Gardner Not really (vpopmail working with LDAP). There is a qmail-ldap build you can follow that will work with LDAP (obviously as the name implies) but I have not investigated it in detail. The rub will come in that AD will only pass a kerborized token containing a one-way hash (someone more versed in Windows and AD correct me if I am wrong) that will contain a security SID for authentication, so the vpopmail daemon cannot work in manners that would require that. As far as retrieving the password from AD in plain text, I do not think this is possible either due to some similarities listed above. Maybe the original poster can work with the script you have? If nothing else, send me a copy off-list as I like to collect these types of things in the event someone on the list asks at a later date. Thanks.
