Hello
I need to authenticate dovecot against openldap. OpenLdap's authentication
method requires SHA.
How must I set dovecot ?
####
/etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf
hosts = ldap-server
dn = cn=administrator,o=admin,o=ldap-server
dnpass = xxxxx
# # # parametros de prueba
default_pass_scheme = SHA
# # # fin parametros de prueba
auth_bind = yes
auth_bind_userdn = cn=%u,o=usuarios,o=ldap-server
ldap_version = 3
base = o=usuarios,o=ldap-server
scope = subtree
user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid
user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))
pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password
pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))
#########
/etc/dovecot.conf
protocol imap {
}
protocol pop3 {
}
protocol lda {
postmaster_address = manuel at mfernandez.es
}
auth default {
#mechanisms = plain SHA
passdb ldap {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf
}
userdb ldap {
args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf
}
user = root
}
dict {
}
plugin {
}
If I uncomment #mechanisms = plain SHA Dovecot doesn't start, the error:
dovecot: auth(default): Unknown authentication mechanism 'SHA'
Thank you
