Mac Os X And Postfix

Hi - First, let me thank you in advance for reading through this post and any assistance with this issue would be really appreciated.

I have a tough assignment here and am not sure what the best approach should be. I've been assigned to rebuild Postfix on our XServer with OSX 10.4.2 installed. I need all of the functionality that comes with the current build, I just need to to add Mysql support.

Here's what I need to do. I have 2 "domains". One is a corporate domain and the members reside in the Open Ldap program (Apple's). The second domain is a contractor domain and the members reside in a remote mysql database. All my mailboxes live on the XServer. I only need Postfix to check the mysql database for authentication.

I have to maintain cyrus/imap. mailman, & squirrel mail as well as open directory support.

I have tried to upgrading MYSQL:

make -f Makefile.init makefiles 'CCARGS=-DHAS_MYSQL -I/AppleInternal/Developer/Headers -I/usr/include/mysql -I/usr/local/mysql/lib' 'AUXLIBS=-L/usr/lib/mysql/ -lmysqlclient -lz -lm'

but I get at the end of install:

cc -DHAS_MYSQL -I/AppleInternal/Developer/Headers -I/usr/include/mysql -I/usr/local/mysql/lib -DBIND_8_COMPAT -DNO_NETINFO -g -O -I. -I../../include -DMACOSX -o local alias.o command.o delivered.o dotforward.o file.o forward.o include.o indirect.o local.o mailbox.o recipient.o resolve.o token.o deliver_attr.o maildir.o biff_notify.o unknown.o local_expand.o aod.o ../../lib/libmaster.a ../../lib/libglobal.a ../../lib/libutil.a -L/usr/lib/mysql/ -lmysqlclient -lz -lm -flat_namespace

I have also tried downloading Postfix from www.postfix.com and installing on the MAC, however it broke (apparently there are some issues regarding group names [maildrop vs postdrop] not to mention launchd and the loss of mailman and squirrel mail.

If anyone can help me with the build or maybe I'm just approching this from the wrong perspective.

Thanks again for any insight you can provide.

Constance...

I have the same need (Postfix & Courier-IMAP to be linked with MySQL). And getting the same results building postfix. Those missing definitions are unrelated to building postfix for MySQL. For instance, if you try to build postfix without mysql support (e.g. simply: make -f Makefile.init makefiles; make), you will get the same result.

The missing definitions belong to something called DirectoryService: http://darwinsource.opendarwin.org/tarballs/apsl/DirectoryService-351.13.tar.gz and the library for this does not appear to be included with OSX by default.


building/installing this appears to be a large can of worms, since it depends on yet more BS to build, and lord knows what those dependencies depend on. I am also concerned with how it will integrate/interfere with OSX once it is installed. Welcome to the GNU cesspool.

Lemme know if you make any progress. best, Jay
 
Have you guys tried installing postfix through fink's package management system? There really is never any reason to build everything yourself, and fink makes it all nice if you really want to do an optimized compile on your system in those rare cases. Most of the time it just uses the packaged binaries.

Anyhow, goto http://fink.sf.net and check out what it has to offer. It takes care of all your dependencies, and it has a postfix install option. The other benefit is that it keeps everything updated for you, and it installs into a /sw directory which makes manual removal very simple.

Edit: checking the fink postfix packages, there is indeed a postfix install that supports mysql, packaged as postfix-mysql.

HTH,
Travis
 
Hi - Thank you JJDeluxe, Leleu & BjarneDM. I appreaciate your help and advice. I did try fink actually and it didn't go over well. I haven't tried BjarneDM's build yet but will just as soon as I can. I had to "shelve" the project due to time constraints. I did contact Apple and they were concerned that building Postfix with MYSQL support could "break" smtp auth. I'll let you know as I progress - thanks again.
 
hmmm ... SMTP auth support in enabled by default in versions above 2.0: http://www.thecabal.org/~devin/postfix/smtp-auth.txt

And on Mac OS X Client the libraries are included:

so you shouldn't have any problems getting SMTP auth support compiled into Postfix. Otherwise, you can get a newer cyrus-sasl2 library from DarwinPorts (instructions on how to install and maintain DarwinPorts can be found here: http://www.macosx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=257956 )
