Hi there,
We're setting up a Dovecot virtual email setup - we've got everything working perfect with LDAP logins authenticating against AD and so forth, but we're having issues with retrieving the maxStorage value from AD (this is a pre-setup field in AD that we'd like to use to set per user quotas).
In our LDAP lookup, we have the maxStorage entry listed under user_attrs for the quota (user_attrs = maxStorage=quota_rule=*:storage=%$M), and in the debug logs, can see it trying to get the entry, but it fails with: Mar 27 13:19:27 auth: Debug: ldap(username@site,192.168.1.5): user search: base=dc=site,dc=local scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=person)(| (userPrincipalName=username@site) (|(mail=username@site)(samAccountName=username@site)))) fields=maxStorage Mar 27 13:19:27 auth: Debug: ldap(username@site,192.168.1.5): no fields returned by the server
At this point, we then see the default quota applied.
Try to change your quota rule to be like: maxStorage=quota_rule=*:bytes=%$ ^^^^^^^^^ And put the value in bytes to maxStorage - if I remember correct - this is integer field and no K\M\G values is valid here.
PS We successfully using maxStorage field to obtain non-default quota from AD, dovecot version 2.0.x
If we change the name of the field from maxStorage to instanceType we see the value show up in the logs and passed through to the quota system and applied successfully: Mar 27 11:09:01 auth: Debug: ldap(username@site,192.168.1.5): user search: base=dc=site,dc=local scope=subtree filter=(&(objectClass=person)(| (userPrincipalName=username@site) (|(mail=username@site)(samAccountName=username@site)))) fields=instanceType Mar 27 11:09:01 auth: Debug: ldap(username@site,192.168.1.5): result: instanceType(quota_rule=*:storage=%$M)=*:storage=4M Mar 27 11:09:01 auth: Debug: master out: USER 3901227009 username@site quota_rule=*:storage=4M
Which seems a bit weird.
If we use ldapsearch and pass it the same search string and look for the field maxStorage, we clearly see the field and the value being returned. The result looks the same if we also lookup instanceType.
We're using Dovecot 2.0.9.
Does anyone have any idea as to why we can't use this field?
Thanks,
Andrew
Tried your suggestion Nikita, no joy unfortunately. It still looks like the value never gets returned from the LDAP server to Dovecot. It definitely has something in the field (equivalent of 10GB, but in bytes as suggested) and I changed the user_attrs also, but still get the same "no fields returned by the server" error message.
Modifying the user_attrs to lookup from a different field (instanceType) definitely works.
What exact version are you using - perhaps it's a problem with our copy of 2.0.9.
Thanks,
Andrew
Further investigation shows that there are a few other fields that we can't retrieve in Dovecot, but can using the same search string and lookup user with ldapsearch. maxStorage is obviously one, but I tried a couple of other fields of varying types: mobile - Octet String and logonCount - Integer. Doesn't seem to be the type that restricts the search, just some fields won't return.
