Hi there,

I basically want to know if its okay to set permission on a file or directory for a LDAP user even if there is no local user on this machine.

Hope someone understand what I mean, background is setting up a mailserver with usermanagement over LDAP. The naive way for me would be creating a local user with the same name like the one in the LDAP db. So I can set the permissions on the Maildirs for the local user. This leaves me with maintaining LDAP and Local user but if I could just use only the LDAP user this would be nice ( it works at least in my test env) but is this considerd secure or should I stick with the LDAP+local User approach?

regards
