Hi All,
Spec: Centos 6.3x64 Dovecot-2.0.9-5.el6.x86_64
Goal:
Inbound emails are delivered by Dovecot and the UID/GID is determined by a local /etc/dovecot/users file.
I'd like to have IMAPS clients authenticate with Dovecot via LDAP.
Questions: password file for mail delivery as no actual password is needed. Then
- I've attempted to ensure that Dovecot will always use the local
the LDAP server for when the IMAPS email client connects. This appears to be working as I expect, can anyone confirm/deny the below settings are correct?
- Is there a Dovecot architecture diagram/documentation anywhere?
Settings:
File: dovecot.conf protocols = imap lmtp listen = *
File: 10-auth.conf disable_plaintext_auth = yes auth_username_format = %Ln auth_mechanisms = plain !include auth-passwdfile.conf.ext !include auth-ldap.conf.ext
File: auth-passwdfile.conf.ext mail_location = maildir:/home/%n/Maildir #passdb { # driver = passwd-file # args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users #} userdb { driver = passwd-file args = username_format=%n /etc/dovecot/users }
File: dovecot-ldap.conf.ext hosts = sysvm-ipa.noboost.org tls = yes tls_ca_cert_dir = /etc/openldap/certs auth_bind = yes auth_bind_userdn = uid=%u,cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=noboost,dc=org base = cn=users,cn=accounts,dc=noboost,dc=org pass_attrs = uid=user pass_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))
