Hi Daniele, Thanks for the feedback. I also found some guides online that confirm your point about not needing to run "openchange_provision" if the master AD server already has the exchange entries defined. I was able to run "openchange_provisions openchangedb" successfully. I am waiting for feedback from the windows admins now on their testing with outlook. Will let you know if all goes well.
I have also established that its not necessary to have winbind working on the member server if its just hosting openchange and SOGo. So thats another step one can skip. cheers Mark On Thu, May 9, 2013 at 8:17 AM, Daniele Borini <[email protected]> wrote: > ** ** ** > > Hi Mark, **** > > i’m trying a similar solution, I’ve provisioned my AD structure with > exchange 2010 tools but I’m having a lots of troubles. > Openchange_provision it’s not needed, but you have to provision > openchangedb.
