I have a Debian
woody server that runs our email (ipopd, 2001adebian-6 & exim,
3.35-1woody3). We use MS outlook (Office XP) as an email client. I currently
have SMTP use limited to the net block of our office, this causes people in
remote sites to have to use EarthLink for SMTP, or in my case Bellsouth. Pop is
set up to authenticate using Kerberos from a Windows domain controller. The
email server and domain controller are located at different
sites
What I am looking
for are solutions/best practices for SMTP authentication so local and remote
users can use our SMTP server, and pop authentication without depending on the
Windows domain. Does anyone have any suggestions that does not require sending
passwords over clear text and allows for easy to manage passwords without having
to log into the mail server to change a users password.
This is what my boss
is asking.
"remove dependency
of domain controller to email, What are our options?
Surely there are best practices for this that don't involve having users ssh in
to maintain their pw's."
