« on: September 04, 2013, 06:24:13 am »

i have mydomain.com
zentyal server has public ip xxx.xxx.xx.xxx
public ip is an A record of mail.mydomain.com
an mx record exists of @ mail.mydomain.com 10 900

on zentyal, the mail server is running
the webmail server is running
incoming, outgoing mail and smtp are all allowed for external and local networks
i can telnet successfully to mail.mydomain.com 25 from external site and get 220 response
company.lan is setup as a virtual domain
mydomain.com is setup as a virtual domain
user Joe has email Joe@company.lan
i can check Zentyal webmail by logging in as Joe@company.lan
i can connect to server with an email client and retrieve Joe@company.lan via pop
i setup Joe@mydomain.com as an alias email in Joe's profile
i email Joe@mydomain.com from external site, but nothing shows up (as i understand, for an alias, you still login using Joe@company.lan credentials)

what am I missing?

Installation and Upgrades / Re: trying to connect synology NAS to Zentyal
« on: September 04, 2013, 02:17:51 am »
I have not changed any ports that I know of.  This is a pretty fresh installation of Zentyal 3.

I finally got Synology to use port 390 by editing the config files via SSH and tricking it into starting its service.

However, binding to the Zentyal LDAP is still failing with the error "Invalid credentials.  Please check your account name and password".  Again, this is on the Synology side.  Everything I have setup is in a config file called nslcd.conf on the Synology, and here is how I have configured it:

uri ldap://zentyalLANip:390
base exactly what is shown under "LDAP Settings" -> "LDAP Information" -> Base DN
binddn exactly what is shown under "LDAP Settings" -> "LDAP Information" -> Read-only root DN
bindpw exactly what is shown under "LDAP Settings" -> "LDAP Information" -> Read-only password

So what am I doing wrong?

elavion: are you running Zentyal 3.x or 2.x?

christian: after two days of back and forth e-mails with Synology, they said there is no way to change the port through the Synology WebUI.  They advised me to change the configuration through SSH manually, but when I then pointed out I needed to start the LDAP client service, not just edit a config file, they told me I was "past the point" they would support and advised me to return their product for refund.

I like this Synology product, but I am shocked at the terrible service and unwillingness to keep a customer.

So on the Zentyal side, the only option I really have is to go back to 2.x?  I don't see how elavion could have gotten his Synology to work with 3.x.

The Synology directory service configuration seems very simple.

First I have to choose if I want to join a Domain or LDAP (this is my first problem).

I have been trying LDAP.  The only options it asks for are:

1. LDAP Server address (I'm using the static IP of my Zentyal 3.0 server)
2. Encryption (I've tried None and SSL)
3. Base DN (this is already prefilled and it is using something like DC=mycompanyname,DC=companybranch,DC=lan, and this is correct since my Domain was set up as mycompanyname.companybranch.lan)
4. Enable Windows CIFS support (I've tried off and on)

After that I click Apply and it asks for:

1. Bind DN or LDAP administrator account
2. Password

I've tried the using the root and read only root information from the Zentyal LDAP settings page.  I've also tried creating an Administrator usr name just for the Synology.  No matter what I try, it gives me a very quick error of "Invalid credentials.  Please check your account name and password (509)".

I have set Zentyal to accept all internal network traffic for LDAP on the packet filter.  This does not seem like it should be super complicated.  Can someone give me a clue as to what I am missing?
