GnuPG for Windows or Gpg4win

LDAP meta directory

Sometimes you need to combine two or more LDAP directories with same suffixes to one directory or you just need to have a proxy. My first attempts to combine two OpenLDAP directories was to make replication from two different sources. This solution however has some disadvantages. First of all: to have syncprov replication your environment must be uniform, this means all source servers and proxy needs to be OpenLDAP.

However, for now I describe the process of upgrading from 5.0 to 6.01.

Mail delivery configuration with LDAP

(Polski) Ostatnim razem pisałem o uwierzytelnianiu użytkowników w katalogu LDAP aby umożliwiać im odbieranie i nadawanie poczty. Teraz nadszedł czas aby skonfigurować Postfixa aby dostarczał pocztę do właściwych skrzynek.

[bash]
$ sudo -i
# apt-get install postfix-ldap
[/bash]
To załatwi sprawę wsparcia map ldap: w Postfixie.
Teraz idziemy do konfiguracji Postfixa:
