Maildrop + LDAP : Wrong home directory and mailbox

[LiniX]

HI,

I use Postfix + Courier-Maildrop + OpenLDAP + Ubuntu 8.04 Server
I use "The Book of POSTFIX" guide me . on Chapter 19 "A Company mail server"

I don't know how to correct home directory from LDAP
when i use root account for maildrop
mailer@Postfix:~$ sudo maildrop -V 9 -d watchara@...
maildrop: authlib: groupid=1001
maildrop: authlib: userid=1001
maildrop: authlib: logname=watchara@..., home=/home/vmail/npt.com/, mail=watchara/Maildir
maildrop: Changing to /home/vmail/npt.com/
TEST From Root
Message start at 0 bytes, envelope sender=watchara@...
maildrop: Attempting .mailfilter
maildrop: Delivery complete.
mailer@Postfix:~$


But when i use vmail account to use maildrop, it wrong home directory it not use home directory from LDAP but it use home directory of vmail account

mailer@Postfix:~$ sudo su - vmail
vmail@Postfix:~$ maildrop -V 9 -d watchara@...
maildrop: authlib: groupid=1001
maildrop: authlib: userid=1001
maildrop: authlib: logname=watchara@..., home=/home/vmail/npt.com/, mail=watchara/Maildir
maildrop: Changing to /home/vmail
TEST
Message start at 0 bytes, envelope sender=vmail
maildrop: Attempting .mailfilter
maildrop: Delivery complete.
vmail@Postfix:~$

see in "maildrop: Changing to /home/vmail" is wrong home directory

How to fixed this problem ?

Thank you
Watchara Kangkun

Check your path. You probably have two versions of maildrop installed in
your path.

Hi,

how did You setup virtual_mailbox_base and especially virtual_mailbox_maps in Postfix' main.cf ?

Here's an example:
...
virtual_mailbox_base = /home/vmail

virtual_mailbox_maps = ldap:ldapvirtual_mailboxes
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_server_host = 127.0.0.1
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_protocol_version = 3
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_bind_dn = uid=postfix,ou=xyz,dc=abc,dc=com
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_bind_pw = ************
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_search_base = ou=userdb,dc=xyz,dc=com
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_scope = one
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_query_filter = (&(mail=%s)(accountStatus=active))
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_result_attribute = uid
ldapvirtual_mailboxes_result_filter = %s/Maildir/

Try to check with postmap:
# postmap -q "user@..." ldap:ldapvirtual_mailboxes
user/Maildir/

This command should return "homedirectory/Maildir/", which resides in the virtual_mailbox_base (/home/vmail).


I hope that helps !


Bye
Daniel

But when i use root account use maildrop, it change home directory to homeDirectory (LDAP user home directory) and default to user/Maildir

Can you help me? please.
