Scalix Forums

Hello,
I've got a test setup using type 13 external ldap syncronisation, using
a samba schema, but I'm wondering how to get the scalix password
also syncronized on the external ldap?

Passwords are never synced when using external directories. In fact, most LDAP-based directories don't let you even read the password entry.

What you would do is setup LDAP authentication against he external directory. This would also have the advantage that there is no delay with password changes.

See the om_ldap man page for details.

Hope this helps,
Florian.
