Hi Layn,
Solution is quite simple - I'll just point it out one by one
1. In your qmail-1.03 source directory, locate the file 'qmail-ldap.h'.
2. In this file, locate the parameter 'LDAP_HOMEDIR' and change its
value to
'mailMessageStore'
3. Now go to the qmail source directory and recompile qmail-ldap
with the
command -
make setup check
4. In the directory /var/qmail/control, make sure u have the following
control files with the contents given along with this...
(I) ldapserver - localhost
(II) ldaplogin - 'cn=Manager,dc=yourdomain,dc=com'
(III) ldappassword - 'yoursecretpassword'
(IV) ldapbasedn - 'dc=yourdomain,dc=com'
(V) ldaplocaldelivery - 1
(VI) make sure localdomains and rcpthosts contain the name of ur domain
5. chown root:qmail /var/qmail/control/ldap*
Also make sure that your /etc/ldap.conf has enabled authentication
for the
domain manager i.e cn=Manager,dc=yourdomain,dc=com...Locate related
entries
in this file and make changes accordingly...
rootbinddn cn=Manager,dc=yourdomain,dc=com
Also uncomment the entry for password
Now, when you create a new user, qmail will automatically create the
user's
home directory, which is also the maildir of user 'watashi' (
/var/qmail/maildirs/watashi. ). So the directory 'watashi' will be
created
as a maildir and not a mailbox directory.
In case the maildir is not created, just send a mail to this newly
created
user 'watashi' with any demo text. qmail will then automatically
create the
desired maildir.
Hope that helps. Good luck with your qmail-ldap installation.
Regards,
Amit

Subject: Automaildir.
I know this is a comun problem, i have read similar post in this
list and anothers, but, i cant fix this error. So please if you
have any
idea about its, please tell me.
My problem is the next:
When i send a mail to a local users (no sistem local, local of my
domains, defined in my ldap), i get the next error:
deferral:
Unable_to_switch_to_/var/qmail/maildirs/watashi3:_file_does_not_exist._(#4.3
.0)
If i create this directory:
shuhi:/var/qmail# bin/dirmaker maildirs/watashi3
shuhi:/var/qmail# chown -R vmail:vmail maildirs
shuhi:/var/qmail# ls -l maildirs/
total 4
drwx------ 2 vmail vmail 4096 2005-10-01 16:53 watashi3
The result is:
deferral: Unable_to_chdir_to_maildir._(#4.2.1)
It could be a problem of privilege, but if u see, the directory is
of vmail:vmail, so its correct, no problem with privilege.
And now i create Maildir with maildirmake:
shuhi:/var/qmail# bin/maildirmake maildirs/watashi3/Maildir
shuhi:/var/qmail# chown -R vmail:vmail maildirs
The result is:
success: did_1+0+0/
Correct!!! But no automatic.
The ldap's user configuration is:
dn: uid=watashi3,dc=example,dc=com
cn: watashi3
sn: lin2
objectClass: person
objectClass: top
objectClass: inetOrgPerson
objectClass: qmailUser
o: example
uid: watashi3
mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
mailHost: smtp.example.com
mailMessageStore: /var/qmail/maildirs/watashi3
userPassword:: 123456
If i put the homeDirectory's attribute, and i create the homeDirectory,
this automaty crea the mailbox, but the mailbox and i want maildir, no
mailbox.
Control's files of interest:
defaultdelivery ./Maildir/
ldapgid 2110 (vmail uid)
ldapmessagestore /var/qmail/maildirs
ldapobjectclass qmailUser
ldaprebind 1
ldapuid 11184 (vmail gid=
dirmaker /var/qmail/bin/dirmaker
And dirmaker's script:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir -m 700 -p $1
And for last, the more important, the Makefile of qmail-1.03, in this
file i have uncommentd the next lines:
MDIRMAKE=DAUTOMAILDIRMAKE
HDIRMAKE=DAUTOHOMEDIRMAKE
I hope you can help me i dont know where to read now.
Thanks and regards,
Layn.
