Hi all, Is there any way that courier-imap can be configured to access more than one LDAP server, so that if the primary server should fail, courier will failover to a secondary (or a tertiary)?
Unfortunately our LDAP servers are rather flaky (Netscape Directory server 4.x - we're planning a move to OpenLDAP, but due to the number of users in our database, it's a long way off at the moment), and they tend to crash every so often (so much for support, sigh). Whenever this happens, I have to restart the authdaemon, and the imap & pop servers, which is going to be rather annoying when this system goes live. Actually, I suppose this is two problems ... if the LDAP crashes, why doesn't courier recover when it comes back up again, and can I make it failover to a second server? I'm currently using version 1.4.3 (ie, the version supplied with Debian Woody). Would any of the later releases solve either of these issues? My authldaprc config, including irrelevent stuff, is: LDAP_SERVER ldap09 LDAP_PORT 389 LDAP_BASEDN o=whatever.com LDAP_BINDDN uid=whoever LDAP_BINDPW whatever LDAP_TIMEOUT 5 LDAP_MAIL uid LDAP_GLOB_UID vmail LDAP_GLOB_GID vmail LDAP_HOMEDIR mailMessageStore LDAP_MAILDIR ./Maildir LDAP_MAILDIRQUOTA maildirQuota LDAP_FULLNAME cn LDAP_CRYPTPW userPassword LDAP_DEREF never LDAP_TLS 0 Cheers, Paul -- Paul Dwerryhouse "Why not just have the arresting officer execute you on the spot?
