Forgot to say that the lines below would be part of a file included thusly:
passdb { driver = ldap
# Path for LDAP configuration file, see example-config/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext }
userdb { driver = prefetch }
userdb { driver = ldap args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext }
And in the /ettc/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext as well as the examples I gave you'll also need a line like:
uris = ldap://myldapserver1 ldap://myldapserver2
(I use 2 servers with referrals to the master)
Also look up iterate_attrs and iterate_filter to let doveadm and other things iterate over accounts.
Cheers

Hi,
That can't be the full output of doveconf -n can it?
You need to define (examples from my configs using qmail schema; your values will probably be different if you are using AD or openLDAP with a different mail schema)
user_attrs = homeDirectory=home,mailMessageStore=mail user_filter = (&(objectClass=qmailUser)(mail=%u)) pass_attrs = userPassword=password,homeDirectory=userdb_home,mailMessageStore=userdb_mail pass_filter = (&(objectClass=qmailUser)(mail=%u))
Also look at the auth_bind parameter. Mine is "yes" because I'm using userdb prefetch as you can see from the pass_attrs param.
And you probably need to set up virtual users as well!

Hello Christian, I tried what you suggested by adding "REFERALS off" to /etc/ldap/ldap.conf and restarting slapd and dovecot, but the error persists.

Hi Ron,
I didn't had the time to check all logs but the error log. First thing you should check if there are LDAP REFFERALS enabled in the systems ldap.conf. I had a similar looking issue and it took me a good amount of time to figure out that I had to disable LDAP REFFERALS globally. This happened when using an AD as LDAP backend, but also applies to Samba4 as you can see in the following mailing list thread:
http://dovecot.markmail.org/message/mjurv4fp4w65u2ib?q=Dovecot+LDA+LDAP+look...
The settings within the systems ldap.conf might influence dovecot, because libldap (openldap) functions might read the global ldap.conf settings.
Hope that helps.
Cheers, Chris
