< h2 id = "summary" > Summary< / h2 >
< p > With Active Directory (AD) integration, you can get below features:< / p >
< ul >
< li > User authentication against Windows Active Directory. You can now manage mail
user accounts, mail lists with AD.< / li >
< li > Mail list support with group in AD.< / li >
< li > Global LDAP Address Book with AD in Roundcube Webmail.< / li >
< li > Account status support. Disable user in AD will cause this account disabled
in iRedMail.< / li >
< / ul >
< p > Since AD uses different LDAP schema, you will lose some iRedMail special features. e.g.< / p >
< ul >
< li > Per-user, per-domain service control with LDAP (e.g. enable/disable
POP3/IMAP/SMTP services).< / li >
< / ul >
< h2 id = "requirements" > Requirements< / h2 >
< p > To integrate Microsoft Active Directory with iRedMail, you should have:< / p >
< ul >
< li > A working Linux/BSD server with iRedMail (OpenLDAP backend) installed.< / li >
< li > A working Microsoft Windows (2000/2003) server, with Active Directory
installed and working properly, listen on port 389 (ldap://) or 636
(ldaps://), and allow LDAP connections from iRedMail server.< / li >
< / ul >
< h2 id = "install-iredmail" > Install iRedMail< / h2 >

< p > Please follow < a href = "./index.html" > iRedMail installaion guides< / a >
2014-10-07 01:09:41 -05:00
to install iRedMail on Linux/BSD with OpenLDAP backend first, we will
achieve this AD integration by simply modifying some configure files.< / p >
< h2 id = "integrate-microsoft-active-directory-with-postfix" > Integrate Microsoft Active Directory with Postfix< / h2 >
< p > We assume:< / p >
< ul >
< li >
< p > Hostname of your AD server is < code > ad.example.com< / code > , listen on port < code > 389< / code > . And it's
accessible from iRedMail server.< / p >
< ul >
< li > We will use this hostname below, you can replace it by IP address of this
AD server if you want.< / li >
< li > If you want to force LDAP connection with LDAPS, use port < code > 636< / code > instead.< / li >
< / ul >
< / li >
< li >
< p > Base dn in AD is < code > dc=example,dc=com< / code > , email addresses of all users end with
< code > @example.com< / code > (Your mail domain is < code > example.com< / code > ).< / p >
< / li >
< li > All user accounts and mail list accounts are placed under dn
< code > cn=Users,dc=example,dc=com< / code > . < strong > Note:< / strong > LDAP dn is case-insensitive.< / li >
< li > For ldap connection, protocol version < code > 3< / code > is recommended.< / li >
< li >
< p > Store all mails on Linux/BSD servers, not on AD server.< / p >
< ul >
< li > Storage directory is < code > /var/vmail/vmail1< / code > , same as default in iRedMail.< / li >
< li > Mailbox of user < code > support@example.com< / code > will be
< code > /var/vmail/vmail1/example.com/support/Maildir/< / code > (Maildir format).< / li >
< / ul >
< / li >

< h3 id = "create-user-account-in-ad-used-for-ldap-query" > Create user account in AD, used for LDAP query< / h3 >
< p > With iRedMail (OpenLDAP backend), we have a low-privileged account
< code > cn=vmail,dc=xxx,dc=xxx< / code > with read-only privilege. And we suggest you create a

Before testing, we have to create two testing mail accounts first:< / p >
< ol >
< li > Create a mail user in AD. e.g. < code > user@example.com< / code > .< / li >
< li > Create a mail group in AD. e.g. < code > testgroup@example.com< / code > , then assign mail
user < code > user@example.com< / code > as group member.< / li >
< li > Query mail user account with below command:< / li >
< / ol >
< pre > < code class = "shell" > # postmap -q user@example.com ldap:/etc/postfix/ad_virtual_mailbox_maps.cf
example.com/user/Maildir/
< / code > < / pre >
< p > If nothing returned by the command, it means LDAP query doesn't get expected
result. Please set < code > debuglevel = 1< / code > file < code > /etc/postfix/ad_virtual_mailbox_maps.cf< / code > ,
then query again, it now will print detailed debug message. If you're not
familiar with LDAP related info, please post the debug message in our
< a href = "http://www.iredmail.org/forum/" > online support forum< / a > to get help.< / p >
< p > Verify sender login check:< / p >
