Hey Folks,
Recently I've been checking out various qmail ldap programs. Well I
guess any program that uses LDAP could be in question since a lot of
these applications seem to have a lower support level than most
programs. I'll just go over the few that go along with qmail-ldap.
phpQLadmin, a great program in itself but previous versions 2.0.17
requires "register_globals On" in php.ini. I'm proud of the 2.0.18
release, but if you've seen the changelog for the release, you'd drop
your jaw.
qmail-ldap-controls is another patchset by Turbo, I do know that there
has been a lot of commotion on qmail-ldap moving too fast for him to
keep up and a previous post about March 2004 applying fine but no Q/A
was performed. Sad that open source community projects never have as
much Q/A as they want.
qmail-ldap, This has been my favorite qmail patch ever. Lots of people
spread out doing their favorite patches for qmail and hey that's great.
Finding and remembering all the patches can be a bore and qmail-ldap
provides the escape from the bore. Is there a April 2004 release coming
out? Also I've had some concern over the versioning scheme, are these
all constituted as a major release? I've found that a lot of gentoo
users are upgrade happy, they always send me links about the latest
updates and I might not have time to handle the Q/A on making it work
since it's monthly.
I guess where I'm trying to get here, is why not team up the programs
involved. Obviously phpQLadmin is a seperate program but qmail-ldap and
the controls patch could be joined together with a flip switch to enable
and disable. Maybe develop a better community of users/devs as well. I'd
also like to get more involved with helping out but be forwarned my
coding experience is very limited.
Thanks to all the programs I labeled in here, they make life easier=)
