Okay,

So I'm trying to install open-xchange. I'm more or less a freeBSD newb, but I can follow instructions and type commands. So, I figured this couldn't be too hard.

Well - the install has gone pretty smooth, but I am having a hell of a time with some pre-flight configuration.

Most of the problems deal with OpenLDAP. Every time I went to configure things, I was getting a whole whack of errors tossed back in my face. Well it turns out I should RTFM. I was attempting to use a newer version of OpenLDAP with Open-xchange - and trust me - when the instructions say use 2.3.4 - you better goddamn well use that version or you'll spin your wheels for hours.

So - after I figured that out I got a little further - but not much. Now I keep getting a fucking invalid DN message everytime I try to add a user to the directory. I swear everything is configured correctly - but its just not working.

Andyway - i've wasted many an hour working on this. I hope its all worth it in the end.
