Some notes on managing Kolab accounts with LAM:
1. Creating accounts
The mailbox server cannot be changed after the account has been saved. Please
make sure that the value is correct.
The email address ("Personal" page) must match your Kolab domain, otherwise the
account will not work.
2. Deleting accounts
2005-08-01 11:58:07 +00:00
If you want to cleanly delete accounts use the "Mark for deletion" button on the
Kolab subpage of an account. This will also remove the user's mailbox.
If you delete the account from the account list (which is standard for LAM accounts)
then no cleanup actions are made.
3. Managing accounts with both LAM and Kolab Admin GUI
2005-08-01 11:58:07 +00:00
The Kolab GUI has some restrictions that LAM does not have.
Please pay attention to the following restrictions:
- Common name in LAM
The common name must have the format "<first name> <last name>".
You can leave the field empty in LAM and it will automatically
fill in the correct value.
- Changing first/last name in Kolab GUI
Do not change the first/last name of your users in the Kolab GUI!
The GUI will change the common name which leads to an LDAP object class
violation. This is caused by a bug in the Kolab GUI.
4. Adding a Kolab part to existing accounts
If you upgrade existing non-Kolab accounts please make sure that the account
has a Unix password.
5. Installing LAM on the Kolab server
You can install LAM in the directory "/kolab/var/kolab/www" which is
the root directory for Apache.
The PHP installation already includes all required packages.
