Postfix and FreeIPA
by Francis Augusto Medeiros-Logeay
Hi,
I was wondering, it would be very cool if FreeIPA could include the
storage of virtual accounts and domains so that it could easily
integrate with Postfix. I am willing to start to develop such
integration, but wanted first to ask here if there's a smarter way to do
so, or if this could be useful for others.
My idea would involve:
- creating an nsContainer named "virtualaccounts";
- creating an objectClass of type "virtualaccount" for virtual domains
and virtual accounts, pointing to a real mailbox (which would always be
a user)
- extending the UI to get the mailQuota field to users (adding
mailRecipient objectClass to the default list as well)
- extending the UI to add a new menu, probably under "Identities", for
adding/editing/deleting virtual domains and aliases.
Does this seem a good way to go, or this could be accomplished in a
simpler way?
Best,
