OK, fuehren Sie folgende Befehle in der shell aus:

omshowu -m all

[Liste aller user kommt]

omdelu username

Das fuer die vier Benutzer machen.

Falls die Benutzter bereits Mail erhalten haben, dass nicht geloescht werden soll, muessen wir das anders machen.

Gruss,

Sascha.

hallo,

ja die user haben berreits mail erhalten... aber nichts wichtiges... ich hab auch schon ueber outlook alles in eine .pst gespeichert...

also wenn es möglich wäre das komplette löschen des postfachs zu umgehen wäre das auch gut.

danke

Hallo,

der username wird entweder mit Parameter -n "Vor Nach/mailnode" angegeben oder ohne Parameter, z.B. omdelu nachname (man omdelu)

Gruss,

Damit ist der mail node gemeint, in Ihrem Fall gbg-worms.

omshowu zeigt die authid an. Also omshowu nachname zeigt den user an.

Gruss,

Sascha.

Oldie but a goodie

Postby kmcelwain » Thu Jun 15, 2006 8:12 pm

This may be considered a dual post but I speak a little german and this is the same problems I'm getting.

omdelu -n 'Robin Watson/mail,banks'

returns the name given is ambiguous.

I've done a lot of omshowu and everything looks identical for these users.

AAAAHHHH...wish my german was better.

Kein Problem!

To list all users on the mailnode, use omshowu -m all. Then, take the output of this list and see which user you want to delete. Copy and paste the name to form a command like


First6505 Last6505 /eta,uk/CN=First6505 Last6505
First6506 Last6506 /eta,uk/CN=First6506 Last6506
First6507 Last6507 /eta,uk/CN=First6507 Last6507

ssiekmann@eta:~> omdelu -n "First6505 Last6505 /eta,uk"
omdelu: One user successfully deleted

Beste Gruesse,

Sascha.
