I just configured my ldap server in Alpine, but every search hangs indefinitely (or so it seems) and I have to end up killing Alpine and starting back up. The LDAP server runs over SSL on port 636, so I have specified port 636, but there doesn't seem to be an SSL option available so I turned on "require-tls-on-connection".
I'm likely doing something wrong, I just don't know what. I've googled and come up with nothing.
I have very limited knowledge on LDAP configuration and have been trying fix one issue, but unsuccessful.
The server, I am working on, is Solaris-10 zone. sudoers is configured on LDAP (its not on local server). I have access to login directly on server with root, but somehow sudo is not working... (9 Replies)
Does anyone have any idea how to see only unread (new) e-mails in the Alpine client when using IMAP?
I finally have a fast IMAP client, but don't want to go over all the e-mails I've already read through other clients...
Thanks in advance for any hints.

Hello. I'm running Mac OS X 10.5. I am completely new to UNIX and also to command line. I'm trying to setup an email client and a web browser.
Google told me Pine was a good idea for email, so I got Pine. I thought it would be like other email clients, like Thunderbird, so that I can use IMAP... (1 Reply)
I've just installed Alpine on Snow Leopard but can't seem to get a default spell checker configured for it. What happened to spell? I can't find it at all on 10.6, must have been some changes. Does anyone know about the default unix spell checker on SL? Thanks! (0 Replies)

I have just started using Alpine, and have a couple of config questions for my ISP POP3 account. Under "User Domain" I have put my "ISP.ca". However when I send out email, instead of showing my email address, it shows my "OSXUserAccount_nameISP.ca". No where in my settings do I see my User Account... (1 Reply)
ldap_open(3LDAP) LDAP Library Functions ldap_open(3LDAP)NAME
ldap_open, ldap_init - initialize an LDAP session
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lldap [ library... ]
#include <lber.h>
#include <ldap.h>
LDAP *ldap_open(const char *host, int port);
LDAP *ldap_init(const char *host, int port);
DESCRIPTION
The ldap_open() function initializes an LDAP session and also opens a connection to an LDAP server before it returns to the caller. Unlike
ldap_open(), ldap_init() does not open a connection to the LDAP server until an operation, such as a search request, is performed.
The ldap_open() function is deprecated and should no longer be used. Call ldap_init() instead.
A list of LDAP hostnames or an IPv4 or IPv6 address can be specified with the ldap_open() and ldap_init() functions. The hostname can
include a port number, separated from the hostname by a colon (:). A port number included as part of the hostname takes precedence over the
port parameter. The ldap_open() and ldap_init() functions attempt connections with LDAP hosts in the order listed and return the first suc-
cessful connection.
PARAMETERS
These functions support the following parameters.
host The hostname, IPv4 or IPv6 address of the host that runs the LDAP server. A space-separated list of hostnames can also be
used for this parameter.
port TCP port number of a connection. Supply the constant LDAP_PORT to obtain the default LDAP port of 389. If a host includes a
port number, the default parameter is ignored.
RETURN VALUES
The ldap_open() and ldap_init() functions return a handle to an LDAP session that contains a pointer to an opaque structure. The structure
must be passed to subsequent calls for the session. If a session cannot be initialized, the functions return NULL and errno should be set
appropriately.
Various aspects of this opaque structure can be read or written to control the session-wide parameters. Use the ldap_get_option(3LDAP) to
access the current option values and the ldap_set_option(3LDAP) to set values for these options.
EXAMPLES
Example 1: Specifying IPv4 and IPv6 Addresses
LDAP sessions can be initialized with hostnames, IPv4 or IPv6 addresses, such as those shown in the following examples.
ldap_init("hosta:636 hostb", 389)
ldap_init("192.168.82.110:389", 389)
ldap_init("[fec0::114:a00:20ff:ab3d:83ed]", 389)
