Hi,
I'm trying to deploy auto provisioning from Openldap and I would like that the aliases would also be created automatically. 

I mean, in the source Ldap there is the "mailAlternateAddress" and I would like to use it to set zimbraMailAlias but this attribute is immutable in Zimbra. Is there any way to accomplish this?

I haven't been able to do this from autoprovisioning.

mailAlternatAddress or zimbraMailAlternatAddress, MailAlias or zimbraMailAlias are all non-zimbra attributes and the autoprovisioning fails.



I have once solved this with a 1 min cronjob, that retrieves the alias and provides it via 'zmprov aaa'.



Are there any better solutions?

Hi Ace, could you share your script?



Best regards.

There's also another script somewhere on this forum, can't find it now...

Thanks !
