Hello everybody!

I'm trying to configure dovecot 1.1.1 with different proxy hosts and/or ports for different protocols (IMAP, POP3). I'm using LDAP for authentication.

I've tried:

1. Variable in "auth default" configuration:

[dovecot.conf]

passdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-%Ls.conf } userdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-%Ls.conf }

With results in dovecot not starting with error message: Can't open configuration file /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-%Ls.conf: No such file or directory So %Ls was not replaced.

2. Variable in pass_attrs

   [dovecot-ldap.conf]

   pass_attrs =
   uid=user,userPassword=password,homeDirectory=userdb_home,
   uidNumber=userdb_uid,gidNumber=userdb_gid,
   dovecotProxy%Ls=proxy,dovecotHost%Ls=host,dovecotPort%Ls=port

   With results in this LDAP server log entries: SRCH attr=uid userPassword homeDirectory uidNumber gidNumber dovecotProxy%Ls dovecotHost%Ls dovecotPort%Ls

   So %Ls was not replaced also.

mmmh...

Would it be an option to use multiple "auth" sections? E.g: auth pop3 { ... passdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-pop3.conf } userdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-pop3.conf } ... }

auth imap { ... passdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-imap.conf } userdb ldap { args = /usr/local/etc/dovecot-ldap-imap.conf } ... }

I'm in doubt because of http://markmail.org/message/rcpcm67g56kxxdyq

Any ideas?

Regards, Ralf Becker
