# Edit settings.ini and set several variables.
NOTE: For more inforamtion, please read settings.ini, it's self-documented.
NOTE: You should ensure both bind dn and bind_pw are correct with below command:

$ ldapsearch -x -D 'YOUR_BIND_DN' -W

WARNING: Bind password is plain text here, not encryped/hashed one.

[iredadmin]
dbn = mysql
host = localhost
port = 3306

user = iredadmin
passwd = secret_passwd

[ldap]
uri = ldap://127.0.0.1:389
suffix = dc=iredmail,dc=org
basedn = o=domains,dc=iredmail,dc=org
domainadmin_dn = o=domainAdmins,dc=iredmail,dc=org
bind_dn = cn=vmailadmin,dc=iredmail,dc=org

Re: Installation and Explanation

Oh, my mistake.

Bind dn/pw is stored in your iRedMail installation directory, e.g. /root/iRedMail-0.5.1/iRedMail.tips.
Usually, it's cn=vmailadmin,dc=xxx,dc=xxx.

I will update installation guide later, Thanks for your report. smile
