[Mageia-sysadm] Email change replication between identity and sympa

Thu Sep 20 09:07:10 CEST 2012

Well i found a plugin page http://www.sympa.org/manual/ldap or manual to do it with ldap and if you access the puppet repository
+
+svn co svn://svn.mageia.org/svn/adm/puppet/
+
+you will find an puppet/modules/sympa/templates/auth.conf which does the ldap binding for auth in addition to that
+
+[root at x0 templates]# grep -ir ldap *
+auth.conf:ldap
+auth.conf:        host                            ldap.<%= domain %>
+auth.conf:        bind_password                   <%= ldap_password %>
+config:<% if subscriber_ldap_group and not subscription_open %>
+config:<% elsif sender_ldap_group %>
+config:send restricted_<%= sender_ldap_group %>
+config:<% if subscriber_ldap_group %>
+config:include_ldap_query
+config:    host ldap.<%= domain %>
+config:    filter (memberOf=cn=<%= subscriber_ldap_group %>,ou=Group,<%= dc_suffix %>)
+config:    passwd   <%= ldap_password %>
+data_sources/ldap_group.incl:include_ldap_2level_query
+data_sources/ldap_group.incl:        host     ldap.<%= domain %>
+data_sources/ldap_group.incl:        passwd   <%= ldap_password %>
+scenari/sender.ldap_group:search(<%= name %>.ldap)  smtp,md5,smime  -> do_it
+search_filters/group.ldap:host        ldap.<%= domain %>:636
+search_filters/group.ldap:bind_password <%= ldap_password %>
+
+so ldap is used at some spots in the config, currently i dont know the ldap design, or what identity sets on its site
