Hi,
I am going through documentation and doing test setups (many) for a
while to be able to use Sogo's native outlook connection feature.
My problem is not mainly for the setup or configuration but to figure
out the best suitable underlying architecture.
The documentation says Samba4 is required for native outlook support, if
an ldap server or AD is in-place as a user directory the sync scripts
are not provided and also says Samba4 can act as an ldap server.
If I am starting from scratch, why would I bother with a separate ldap
server, since Samba4 is sort of an ldap server and a requirement anyway.
Right?
I guess not.
I have checked Sogo's ZEG and a separate ldap server is implemented.
I have also took a quick look at Zenytal Server 3.3, which includes sogo
and openchange in order to provide native outlook connection feature and
they have also implemented a separate ldap server as well.
Now I am wondering what could I have been missing? Why would I want to
go with an additional ldap server if Samba4 can act as one?
That's actually a good question, as Samba4 seems to discourage the use
of dedicated LDAP servers (
https://wiki.samba.org/index.php/FAQ#Why_is_the_LDAP_backend_.28used_so_successfully_in_classic_Samba_domains.29_not_supported_with_the_AD_DC.3F
). Sogo seems to work fine with a pure Samba 4 AD setup (
http://www.foteviken.de/?p=1925 ).
OpenLDAP was nessecary because of the change password functionality in
SOGo.
As SOGo can now change passwords in SAMBA/AD too, there is no need for
an additional LDAP server anymore.
Yes, since 2.1.0 it is not problem on Samba4 AD! :)
