SLES 9 - How to configure multiple email domains in LDAP
I am trying to configure postfix/cyrus/LDAP to handle two email domains, say user@domain1.com and user@domain2.com. I've read and read the admin guide, googled and googled, and experimented a good deal also. I seem close but cannot quite get there. Here's what I've done. 1. On install I took the YAST defaults to create a default server certificate for domain1.com and told it to use LDAP for user authentication. 2. Created a new LDAP database for domain2.com. Actually I'm wondering if I really need to do this - can I just have two branches in one database - one for domain1 and one for domain2? 3. Anyway, then created a new CA and server certificate for domain2.com. But looking at slapd.conf, I do not really see a way to point LDAP at two sets fo certificates - so I did nothing with this. 4. When I go into Yast->Security->Add Users there seems to be no way to indicate which domain a user is in. If "user1" exists in domain1.com, I am unable to create user1 in domain2.com - I get the message something like "There is a conflict between the entered user name and an existing user name." Thanks in advance for any ideas/suggestion - Richard (Sorry for the cross-post, but traffic in the SLES forum seems light).
Oh! I did this before on SLES 8, but used the cyradmin package with mysql to handle multiple domains. This time SLES 9 claims to have the same capabilities so I'm trying to stay with the standard packages as much as possible so I can minimize the time it taks for keeping my servers patched and secure. - Richard -----Original Message----- From: Richard Mixon (qwest) [mailto:rnmixon@qwest.net] Sent: Sunday, November 21, 2004 7:16 PM To: suse-sles-e@suse.com; suse-linux-e@suse.com Subject: [SLE] SLES 9 - How to configure multiple email domains in LDAP I am trying to configure postfix/cyrus/LDAP to handle two email domains, say user@domain1.com and user@domain2.com.
