Hello Eric, Thanks for attention, i wrote something for ApacheDS example, i think with a concrete LDAP server example, everything might be more clear. There is still something i want to ask, do we have to manage domains with JPA, or is there any other possibility.
===================================================================================== STEPS TO AUTHENTICATE JAMES WİTH LDAP(ApacheDS for this case) Delete record about JPA in James's conf/usersrepository.xml and add below lines, the last ivew must be like this: <xml> <repository name="LocalUsers" class="org.apache.james.user.ldap.ReadOnlyUsersLDAPRepository" ldapHost="ldap://localhost:10389"; principal="uid=admin,ou=system" credentials="secret" userObjectClass="inetOrgPerson" userBase="ou=users,ou=system" userIdAttribute="uid"> <UsersDomain>example.com</UsersDomain> <LDAPRoot>dc=example,dc=com</LDAPRoot> <MailAddressAttribute>mail</MailAddressAttribute> <IdentityAttribute>uid</IdentityAttribute> <AuthenticationType>simple</AuthenticationType> <ManagePasswordAttribute>TRUE</ManagePasswordAttribute> <PasswordAttribute>userPassword</PasswordAttribute> </repository> </xml> To explain a little; In ApacheDS's default construction, there is a root having "dc=example,dc=com" Because of this, the lines should be added: <UsersDomain>example.com</UsersDomain> <LDAPRoot>dc=example,dc=com</LDAPRoot> And a domain called "example.com" should be added to James, it saves the info about domains still in JPA. ${james_root}/container-spring/target/appassembler/bin/james-cli.sh -h localhost adddomain example.com ApacheDS's admin is admin under "ou=system" entry, and its default password is "secret" thus, we need below attributes: principal="uid=admin,ou=system" credentials="secret" In ApacheDS when you want to add an entry it requires object classes, it should be selected, "inetOrgPerson" and it put a few more automatically thus the atribute should be aaded in configuration: userObjectClass="inetOrgPerson" Users are under entry "ou=users,ou=system" , thus the attribute should be added: userBase="ou=users,ou=system" For ApacheDS, userIdAttribute is "uid", thus it is specified: userIdAttribute="uid" In ApacheDS new users should be added under "ou=users,ou=system", with a "uid" and a "userPassword" attributes. Also while adding new user, the DN should contain "uid". While querying James using e.g. POP3, USER [email protected] PASS yourUsersPassword should be used. ======================================================================================================== 2012/7/18 Eric Charles <[email protected]> > That's really great news! > Would you mind writing a few paragraphs to be pushed on our website? > > Thx again Merve for being so tenacious and having found the way. > > Eric > > > On 07/18/2012 03:21 PM, Merve Temizer wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Apache James has been configured to talk with ApacheDS LDAP server >> successfully. >> >> The configuration clues in >> >> https://issues.apache.org/**jira/browse/JAMES-747<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JAMES-747> >> >> make me be patient and try more thing. >> >> I am going to tell what i exactly do in my blog. >> >> Thanks for helps. >> >> >> 2012/7/17 Eric Charles <[email protected]> >> >> Hi, >>> If any user/developer has already run james with ldap, I'm also >>> interested >>> to know how to configure it. >>> >>> [1] and [2] is not helpful enough to use it directly. >>> >>> Thx, Eric >>> >>> [1] >>> http://james.apache.org/****server/archive/usingLDAP_v1_2.****html<http://james.apache.org/**server/archive/usingLDAP_v1_2.**html> >>> <http://james.apache.**org/server/archive/usingLDAP_**v1_2.html<http://james.apache.org/server/archive/usingLDAP_v1_2.html> >>> > >>> [2] >>> http://james.apache.org/****server/3/config-users.html#**<http://james.apache.org/**server/3/config-users.html#**> >>> LDAP_Users_Repository<http://**james.apache.org/server/3/** >>> config-users.html#LDAP_Users_**Repository<http://james.apache.org/server/3/config-users.html#LDAP_Users_Repository> >>> > >>> >>> >>> >>> On 07/17/2012 04:41 PM, Merve Temizer wrote: >>> >>> Hello, >>>> How can i login as my user in LDAP? >>>> I have users in ApacheDS under ou:users,ou:system and they have dn s >>>> also >>>> cn s. >>>> What should i write in "mail from" and "rcpt to" fields while sending >>>> emails through "telnet localhost 25"? >>>> >>>> >>>> >>> -- >>> eric | http://about.echarles.net | @echarles >>> >>> >>> ------------------------------****----------------------------** >>> --**--------- >>> To unsubscribe, e-mail: server-dev-unsubscribe@james.****apache.org< >>> server-dev-**[email protected]<[email protected]> >>> > >>> For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected].****org< >>> server-dev-help@james.**apache.org <[email protected]>> >>> >>> >>> >> > > -- > eric | http://about.echarles.net | @echarles > > > ------------------------------**------------------------------**--------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: > server-dev-unsubscribe@james.**apache.org<[email protected]> > For additional commands, e-mail: > [email protected].**org<[email protected]> > >
