"replace email's name" into sme server
« on: September 06, 2019, 09:28:41 PM »
Hi,
in fact, i use sme server for a school as a domain server and i use office365 for students/teachers emails.
Actually my domain is @buzz.kerplouz.com (not useful) for sme server and @kerplouz.com (better) for office365.

Actually i have to create users on sme server and do it again in office365, but I believe there is no way to use use ldap from sme server with office365,

so I would like to "write" at least the emails adress in the sme server's ldap to use it with others application on the web (example moodle or mahara who can import the sme server's mails so i would like to use the office365's mail not the sme server's mail). The best way would be to do it with lazy admin tools but i don't know if it's possible.

Is there a way to do it better ?

I hope i am clear ...

Many thanks for your help.

Do you use any email on sme?
If not just set kerplouz.com as domain. Only use buzz as hostname. And configure office365 as delegated smtp.
No email will be handled locally then but ldap should be correct.

Only limit to that is if your sme act as dns et dhcp server and kerplouz.com http is served by another server.
The you might have to trick the way ldap is filled to force a domain name. There are options for some services like qmail and qpsmtpd to do so but i do not think for ldap.

Sme server is the dhcp server of my chool and https://www.kerplouz.com is managed on a web hosting.
