Re: Re: Ispman-users digest, Vol 1 #833 - 2 msgs

Hi Marco,

In looking at the spec file you provided, it appears that it is indeed 
compiling with LDAP support. I haven't tried the spec file you provided, 
but it appears to me that it should work.

The configure options that you want enabled are (and it appears these 
are enabled in the spec file you provided):
--enable-maildropldap
--with-ldapconfig=%courier_confdir/%confldap

Have you edited /usr/lib/courier-imap/etc/maildrop-ldap.conf to reflect 
your ldap settings?

As a side note, I had some problems getting the source rpm to compile 
the way I wanted it to. I actually gave up on compiling the rpm and 
configured/installed it manually. You might want to try that route as a 
last resort.

Something else to try: I had to make maildrop suid root before it would 
deliver mail to the user's mailboxes. chmod u+s maildrop will take care 
of that for you.

I'm not sure why you are having the dependency problems. I'd think that 
the symlink would take care of it, but I honestly do not know. I'd 
assume that the configure script would pick up on the correct perl 
location for you. Maybe if you configured it manually instead of 
building the rpm it would help.

Hope this helps.
Jim
