hi I would like to know if it’s possible to configure Nginx as Perdition with ldap. Because i have one Webmail IMP/HORDE and two store with mailbox. I want to be able to choose a back-end server based on the user’s identity on the LDAP For example with perdition in configuration file Perdition.conf M /usr/lib/libperditiondb\_ldap.so m “ldap://ldap.domain.fr:389/o=domain,c=fr?uid,mailHost,port?sub?(uid=%s)” The same with Nginx is it possible??Or an other solution Thanks in advance ---

So you just have to write auth script that talks to your ldap directory. Maxim D. ---

You probably want to change IMAPserver to mailHost, and look up the port as well, but the changes should be quite straight forward. In the mail section, add “auth\_http localhost:9000/cgi-bin/auth;” ---
