bind several branches in the LDAP tree for authentication

[HAHN Nicolas]

Hi everybody :-)

Just a quick question: in my LDAP server, I have several branches where
I have several users for each one. In this case, how IMP can
authenticate my users, I mean how to configure it, and is it possible
in the last version 3.1RC1 ?

If imp can bind a user only in one branch (the one which is configured
via the binddn), would it be possible to implement the 'multi-branches'
bind for the Release 3.1 ?

Thanks a lot :-)

You need to upgrade to the newest passwd code to support more than one
realm.

The new version has a way to configure the realms to connect to for
poppassd, rather than remove the realm string.  You will need to
upgrade.

Yep, upgrade passwd and reconfigure for each realm.
