[tpop3d-discuss] LDAP & Maildir

[Thai Q. Tran]

Jari,
	Okay what you would have to do now is change your config file
again.  For your case you cannot use: 

auth-ldap-mail-user: nobody
auth-ldap-mail-group: nobody

Replace the above with:

auth-ldap-mail-user-attr: uidNumber
auth-ldap-mail-group-attr: gidNumber

It's also in the readme that Chris sent you, hope this helps...  Also
make sure that your ldap attributes are accordingly set with the chown.

Thanks,
Thai

Sorry! Thai and Chris , i'm blind.
/ is needed just like the tpop3d.conf man page says.


One beginner question again, howto ldap and (tpop3d) checks users home-
directory permission when for example users uidNumber=502 and
gidNumber=502,
if i have /home/Domain/john with permissions set with
chown -R 502.502 john/.
I'm cannot find any information with this problem.

ls -la show
drwx------    4 502      502          4096 2003-04-29 20:06 john

I still get message

 tpop3d[6174]: maildir_new: chdir(/home/Domain/john/): Permission denied


Thanks for all that have bothered to respond my questions.
