Re: ldapdb and postfix



I should clarify that I have postfix setup using ldap to retrieve virtual mappings, accepted domains etc and maildrop 1.5.3 using ldap to retrieve maildir path. This all works correctly under openldap 2.2.13, although as an aside maildrop 1.6.3 refused to talk to slapd.

I'm attempting to implement ldapdb as a means of implementing SASLavoiding having to run saslauthd - one less daemon is a good thing. I've used <http://www.billy.demon.nl/Postfix-SASL-authentication.html> as a guide to implementing this part of the setup and have configured the SASL proxy user to respond correctly to ldapsearch and ldapwhoami queries. When I configure postfix stmpd to use ldapdb I get SASL auth failure messages in maillog and no indication of any kind of query in the slapd log.

I'm trying to work out if this is an inherent problem with 2.2.x and I should shift to 2.1.30 or whether I have simply bungled the setup. It is possible that running on OpenBSD 3.5 introduces some additional problems!

cheers

Postfix uses ldapv2 and OPenldap 2.1.x uses Ldapv3,   you have to use an

what to put but look for how to enable ldapv2.
