Hi,
I have setup samba4 as AD and hoping to have dovecot authenticate users against it. I am facing challenges though and I am unable to figure it out. I could do with a third eye to help me spot what is wrong.
root@adc0:/etc# doveadm auth test -x service=imap odhiambo@newideatest.local Password: passdb: odhiambo@newideatest.local auth failed extra fields:

Here is my doveconf -n:
https://paste.ubuntu.com/p/SPmrxZxHPx/
My dovecot-ldap.cont.ext:
uris = ldap://localhost/ dn = "dovecot@newideatest.local" dnpass = "XXXXXXXX" sasl_bind = no tls = no ldap_version = 3 deref = never scope = subtree base = cn=Users,dc=NEWIDEATEST,dc=LOCAL auth_bind = yes user_filter = (&(objectClass=user)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))(|(mail=%u)(sAMAccountName=%u)(otherMailbox=%u))) user_attrs = sAMAccountName=user,userPassword=password,=mail=maildir:/home/%n/Maildir/ pass_filter = (&(objectClass=user)(!(userAccountControl:1.2.840.113556.1.4.803:=2))(sAMAccountName=%u)) pass_attrs = sAMAccountName=user,userPassword=password
The use exists in the database:
For the record, this is what I finally came up with that worked - dovecot-ldap.conf.ext:
##### BEGIN uris = ldap://localhost/ dn = "dovecot@newideatest.local" dnpass = "verystupid" sasl_bind = no tls = no ldap_version = 3 deref = never scope = subtree base = cn=Users,dc=NEWIDEATEST,dc=LOCAL auth_bind = yes
You probably would want to set this to 'no', it causes dovecot to rebind after authentication. This is not required when you can return password
from LDAP, it is only required when you have to do first a lookup and then
authenticate as the user to verify password.
Hello Aki,
Thanks for looking at this.
In my case, when I change to "auth_bind = no", then this happens:
root@adc0:/etc/dovecot# telnet 0 143 Trying 0.0.0.0... Connected to 0. Escape character is '^]'.
- OK [CAPABILITY IMAP4rev1 SASL-IR LOGIN-REFERRALS ID ENABLE IDLE LITERAL+ STARTTLS AUTH=PLAIN AUTH=LOGIN] Dovecot (Ubuntu) ready. 1 login odhiambo@newideatest.local XXXXXXX 1 NO [AUTHENTICATIONFAILED] Authentication failed. 1 logout
Auth succeeds though when I have it set to "yes".
My conf.d/auth-ldap.conf.ext contains: passdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext } userdb { driver = static args = uid=Debian-exim gid=Debian-exim home=/var/spool/virtual/%Ld/%Ln }
How can I return the password from LDAP? I'd be happy to know what I need to do so that I can use your suggestion. This LDAP stuff is still quite some "greek" to me.
