I'm getting around to setting up my email server on opensuse 10.3 to migrate from an older setup. Its a clean 10.3 install. I've used postfix-cyrus imap-amavis-spamassassin-sieve in the past and like that setup.
I'd like to have email users separate from local users. At present I only have one local user, but may have a few family members use this machine with their own logins at some point. I plan to have approx 10 to 20 email users, so this is no big install, just my home email server.
Looking at yast to set up the MTA, it offers to set postfix up to auth against an LDAP server and offers to set up that as a local LDAP. That sounds interesting, but I don't need anything else to use LDAP except posftix and imap. Is this the best way to accomplish what I want, or is using another method of authing my email users better, and what would that be?
Many thanks,

I don't think you need ldap for Imap accounts with Cyrus. Just add the users via cyrus admin and let cyrus take care of it.
OK, as root I set a password for user cyrus, and now can log into cyradm. There was my one user mailbox there already. I created another user (mailbox), but don't see where to set a password for that user in cyradm. I "think" I need to change the way cyrus authenticates, in etc/sysconfig, but am unsure exactly how to do this and which auth scheme to use. Can anyone give me some guidance with this?
