I'm looking for suggestions on storing email aliases in ldap. It seems that sendmail has one schema and postfix a different one. 389 doesn't appear to support either out of the box. Are there any standardization efforts out there? Thanks! Try like below dn: sendmailMTAKey=testuser,dc=example,dc=com objectClass: sendmailMTA objectClass: sendmailMTAAlias objectClass: sendmailMTAAliasObject sendmailMTAAliasGrouping: aliases sendmailMTACluster: ldapter-cluster sendmailMTAKey: testuser sendmailMTAKey: tuser sendmailMTAKey: testu sendmailMTAKey: test.user sendmailMTAKey: test_user sendmailMTAAliasValue:test_user@xxxxxxxxxxx <mailto:test_user@xxxxxxxxxxx> sendmailMTAAliasValue: user.tes replace the cluster name with the one you have mentioned insendmail.mc <http://sendmail.mc> file Once the above entries are added to ldap server, please test using sendmail -bv command and see whether it returns the correct results or not. Add the server address and basedn to /etc/openldap/ldap.conf file.
schemas that have application specific names in them (sendmailMTA*) make me shiver. Seems to defeat the purpose of a directory server.
I'm leaning towards using mailGroup as it does seem to be in 389 (though I needed to make some changes there due to trying to implement ldap routing as well) and as the postfix howto mentions it seems usable there too. With sendmail one does:
define(`ALIAS_FILE', `ldap:-k (&(objectClass=mailGroup)(mail=%0)) -v mgrpRFC822MailMember')
Now if I can only figure out how to use /etc/aliases + ldap in sendmail, if possible.
