Re: kolab 3.0 on wheezy x86_64 report !

Hi Johannes,
i am a little bit further with my setup. (as posted in the user list).
I have a running system now. (With the functionality provided in the
alpha release).
There a re lot of things to change to get it working, but there some
questions to ask.
I will provide a very detailed followup.

Working now: Debian wheezy x86_64.

kolabd (when started in the foreground)
kolab-saslauthd (--//--)
cyrus-imapd (also lmtp delivering, build with --with-ldap=/usr and
--with-auth=pts + install files )
postfix (also the smtp-access-policy)
roundcubemail (calendar and tasks wheren importing the sql files in the
plugin direcotory)
wallace (alsp started in the foreground)

Rgds.

Franz
