The jabber daemon I'm using (jabberd2) can authenticate users using LDAP. As the jabber address is the same as the email address for which I'm setting up a virtual mailbox, I wonder if I can have it setup so that the virtual mailbox and jabber passwords are the same. So
- Are the virtual mailbox passwords stored using LDAP? - If so, would it be possible to use this LDAP to authenticate my Jabber users - If so, I think I would like the following information if possible: - Address/port of the LDAP server - Type of LDAP server (there seems to be an option between ad / ldap - LDAP attribute fields names for user id for the mailbox, and user password - How is the user id stored: is it a full address like '[email protected]' or just 'user' - How is the password stored? I.e. Plain text / sha / ssha ? - The 'objectclass' for the user (the default seems to be posixAccount) - The 'base DN' for the tree (I'm not even sure what this means) - Also: there is configuration 'DN to bind to for searches', with a password field. I guess if the hcoop LDAP server uses a password, I won't be able to use it...? I hope someone can help. I might be making some incorrect assumptions about all this though, I've never really done anything with LDAP.
