NAME
ncm-postfix: Postfix server configuration
DESCRIPTION
postfix
RESOURCES
/software/components/postfix
The configuration information for the component. This structure contains three fields:
-
main
An nlist with all the possible configuration values for
/etc/postfix/main.cf
. See main(5) for more details. -
master
A list with all entries for
/etc/postfix/master.cf
. See master(5) for all the details. For each line, we have to provide:-
name
: stringName of the entry (first field in the line).
-
type
: stringType of service/socket for this entry.
-
private
: booleanDefaults to true.
-
unprivileged
: booleanDefaults to true
-
chroot
: booleanDefaults to true
-
maxproc
: longMaximum number of processes that may be instantiated following this line Defaults to 100.
-
wakeup
: long command
-
-
databases
An optional structure describing additional Postfix databases (lookup tables in Postfix terminology). See http://www.postfix.org/DATABASE_README.html for more information.
Each subtree is associated with a class of lookup tables. Each class of lookup tables is an nlist, in which the keys are the file names (relative to
/etc/postfix
) that configure the access to such a database.Currently, only LDAP lookups can be described, see http://www.postfix.org/LDAP_README.html
EXAMPLES
Minimal configuration
An empty nlist is valid for main.cf
:
"/software/components/postfix/main" = nlist();
Storing aliases in LDAP
Declaring an alias database stored in an LDAP server can be achieved as follows:
"/software/components/postfix/main/alias_maps" = append(
nlist(
"type", "ldap",
"name", "/etc/postfix/ldap-aliases.cf"));
And we can instruct Postfix to access this database:
prefix "/software/components/postfix/databases/ldap/ldap-aliases.cf";
"server_host" = "foo.bar.com";
"search_base" = "OU=foo,CN=bar";
"query_filter" = "(an-ldap-filter)";
"result_format" = "%s";
