But.. I just though of something.. From what I understand we are having a speed issue with the IMail administrator and the WebModules (WebMail & WebCalendar) because the IMail server try to conect himself to the OpenLDAP server which is built in and timeout.
Lets say that I have only one host, named microtecsecurite.com which is my main IMail host. I check the general Tab of this host and the IP in there is my mail server's external IP. It is because its resolved by querying DNS which is our external DNS.
So when IMail tries to connect to the LDAP service (IMail OpenLDAP server) it tries to connect to the LDAP port specified in the LDAP service screen to the IP specified in the main host general tab which is its external IP (in my case)
So since it tries to connect with its external IP it can't reach itself because this port is blocked by our Firewall and timeout after a while.
My question is, why don't it use the loopback adress to do something like this? (127.0.0.1)
Doug Anderson a �crit :
With Nat or Pat, your IP within the 'system' should be the same as what the local machine is...with your case in imail, it should be 10.10.100.3 The only place the external ip should be used is at the firewall. You then make an entry into the internal dns that has an mx record to the internal ip address and the external dns on the internet points to your external mx record.
If you don't use internal dns, then you need to use host files on every machine.

Subject: Re: [IMail Forum] LDAP acces with external tool
haveI did convert when asked at install time. I even re-run it with command line to be sure since I had lots of problem with LDAP.
I SYNC the database and even INIT the database.
So yes I did all that.
I beging to think its a IP and NAT problem.
My host IP (real IP in windows) is 10.10.100.3 which is nated by our firewall to an external IP
But the IP we specified in IMail is the NATED external IP. This might cause problem... but since mail is working I'm not so enthousiasm to change the IP, well not on working hours...
Someone did that? Is someone configured the same way I should be? Someone has experienced that "change" and lived to tell about it?

Update:
After searching for a bit, I found out an article on IMail support which state that the LDAP DN o=%Official%
where %Official% is the official name of your host.
in our case o=microtecsecurite.com
But when I try to connect to the LDAP server I get an LDAP error No such object
What does this mean?
Patrick Ouellet a �crit :
Since IMail use OpenLDAP I wanted to browse the LDAP directory with a little LDAP explorer tool.
But I can't find what my Base DN is?
Can someone enlighten me about that?
