So, I set up the Server, installed and configured postfix, ldap and

The test looks like this:

*| a bunch of stuff ending with:*
*| OK [**] Dovecot ready.*
*|> a login username userpassword*
*| a NO [UNAVAILABLE] Temporary authentication failure. [host and date

In the logs it says
*|[date] mailserver dovecot: auth: Error: LDAP: binding failed (dn
cn=admin): Invalid credentials*
But I KNOW the admin password I entered into the dovecot-lda.conf.ext is
correct as I use it to log into the LDAP directory over jxplorer
I also know the password for the user i try to log in with is correct as i
set it myself over and over just to be sure there are no typos.
I'm at a loss, I've been at this end for a few days now and can't find
good
tutorials online because its either always an old dovecot, postfix, ldap
or
debian version and somewhere in the middle it just stops because some file
is completely missing. I get the impression I'm just not able-brained for
linux useage.
Anyway, here are a few more informations about the system:
*Dovecot version 2.1.7*
Output of grep -v '^ *\(#.*\)\?$' dovecot-ldap.conf.ext:
*hosts = localhost*
*dn = cn=admin*
*dnpass = [password]*
install the ldap-utils package - that one containing ldapsearch - and
execute:
ldapsearch -W -D cn=admin -b 'dc=[domainname],dc=de' \
'(&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=<<uid>>))'
then enter your password.
1) I suppose, cn=admin is missing a domain name, e.g.
dc=[domainname],dc=de .
2) does your dnpass contain "funny" characters?
*sasl_bind = no*
*tls = no*
*auth_bind = yes*
*ldap_version = 3*
*base = dc=[domainname],dc=de*
*user_attrs = uidNumber=uid,gidNumber=gid*
*user_filter = (&(objectClass=posixAccount)(uid=%u))*
*pass_attrs = uid=user,userPassword=password*
BTW: You do not habe no pass_filter or I deleted it last time.
Output of dovecot -n:
*disable_plaintest_auth = no*
*mail_location = mbox:~/mail:INBOX=/var/mail/%u*
*[namespace config here]*
*passdb {*
*args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext*
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
filename mismatch
*driver = ldap*
*}*
*plugin {*
*sieve = ~/.dovecot.sieve*
*sieve_dir = ~/sieve*
*}*
*protocols = " imap pop3"*
*ssl_cert = </etc/dovecot/dovecot.pem*
*ssl_key = </etc/dovecot/private/dovecot.pem*
*userdb {*
*args = /etc/dovecot/dovecot-ldap.conf.ext*
*driver =ldap*
*}*
*protocol pop3 {*
*pop3_client_workarounds = outlook-no-nuls oe-ns-eoh*
*pop3_uidl_format = %08Xu%08Xv*

Any help would be greatly apprechiated.... I'm going crazy over here.
Thanks in advance,
