Installing the postfixadmin Plugin
|
|
======================================
|
|
|
|
Requirements:
|
|
=============
|
|
|
|
- PHP 5.2.x with php5-xmlrpc installed (if available; it should be available by default anyway)
|
|
- http access to a local/remote postfixadmin interface
|
|
|
|
|
|
Installation :
|
|
==============
|
|
|
|
- Check out this code (svn co http://squirrelmail-postfixadmin.palepurple.co.uk/svn/trunk postfixadmin)
|
|
into the Squirrelmail plugins directory.
|
|
|
|
- Edit config.php and specify the remote URL for the Postfixadmin XmlRpc service. There isn't much more to change.
|
|
|
|
- Edit the remote Postfixadmin's XmlRpc service config file and ensure 'xmlrpc_enable' is set to boolean true.
|
|
|
|
- Enable the plugin through 'squirrelmail-configure' or 'config/conf.pl'.
|
|
Choose option 8 and move the plugin from the "Available Plugins"
|
|
category to the "Installed Plugins" category. Save and exit.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Security :
|
|
==========
|
|
|
|
- The XmlRpc client needs to get the user's mailbox password before it will be able to connect to the
|
|
XmlRpc server (postfixadmin). The plugin prompts the user for their mailbox password, and caches it in their session
|
|
($_SESSION['password']). This password is then sent once on every page load to the remote XmlRpc server.
|
|
|
|
- You should consider doing any of the following :
|
|
|
|
- Using https if the server and client are on seperate servers. This will probably require a signed certificate etc, and may require changes to the Zend_XmlRpc_Client's HttpClient.
|
|
- Using something like stunnel to encrypt traffic between server(s).
