The migration of PAM into LDAP shouldn't concern you. PAM is for *authentication*, not for obtaining user information and mail routing issues. If you want to route/accept/reject/... mails based on the LDAP directory you should have a solid knowledge about LDAP (servers, binding, searchbase, filters, ...). Understanding the ldapsearch(1) utility helps a lot in creating proper ldap queries. Then it's easy going to integrate ldap into your exim configuration, the part about query style (ldap) lookups should be sufficient. > [1]: http://www.exim.org/exim-html-4.30/doc/html/spec_9.html#SECT9.10 Yes. In newer exim versions (4.69) the section number is a bit different.
