Exporting Users Accounts

[wilbertjoserojasochoa]

Hello everybody!

Using 64-bit and Fedora 11 Release 6.0.4_GA_2038.F11_64_20091214174340 F11_64 FOSS edition, but I want to migrate all accounts with their passwords to a server with postfix and dovecot, this because my boss does not like Zimbra: (

There are some methods to export the accounts?

Greetings.

Copy the usernames, the SSHA hashed passwords, aliases etc to whatever backend you're using to store it.

zmprov ga <accountname>

This will get you all attributes and their values.

BTW: does your boss know zimbra is running postfix and imap? Or does he just like to see you do double work

Thanks, but the password attribute dont't visible

This is the result:

[zimbra@mail ~]$ zmprov ga sysadmin@mem.gob.ni
# name sysadmin@mem.gob.ni
cn: Administrador Sistemas
displayName: Administrador Sistemas
givenName: Administrador
mail: sysadmin@domain.com
objectClass: organizationalPerson
objectClass: zimbraAccount
objectClass: amavisAccount
sn: Sistemas
uid: sysadmin
userPassword: VALUE-BLOCKED
zimbraAccountStatus: active
zimbraAdminAuthTokenLifetime: 12h
zimbraAllowAnyFromAddress: FALSE
zimbraArchiveAccountDateTemplate: yyyyMMdd
zimbraArchiveAccountNameTemplate: ${USER}-${DATE}@${DOMAIN}.archive
zimbraAttachmentsBlocked: FALSE
zimbraAttachmentsIndexingEnabled: TRUE
zimbraAttachmentsViewInHtmlOnly: FALSE
zimbraAuthTokenLifetime: 2d
zimbraAuthTokenValidityValue: 1
zimbraBatchedIndexingSize: 20
zimbraCalendarCalDavSharedFolderCacheDuration: 1m
zimbraCalendarMaxRevisions: 1
zimbraContactAutoCompleteEmailFields: email,email2,email3
zimbraContactAutoCompleteMaxResults: 20
zimbraContactMaxNumEntries: 10000

Exist any way to know it ??

Apparently zmprov copies the behaviour of ldapsearch and doesnt't show the attribute userPassword without authentication (for good reasons).

Easieest way to get it anyway is to use ldapsearch from the cli:

ldapsearch -H ldap://hostname:389 -x -w <yourldappassword> -D "uid=zimbra,cn=admins,cn=zimbra" uid=<domainuser> | grep userPassword

Get your ldappassword by running:

zmlocalconfig -s | grep zimbra_ldap_password

Run all commands as user Zimbra.

Thanks Hivos,

Any way to export all mail received to this accounts and export it too to new server ??

In pref , there is an option to export & Import.Although my experience is that export works & import is required to be done from command prompt.

[wilbertjoserojasochoa]

How can i do that althrough command prompt ?

Thanks for answer.

[Hivos]

If I understand correctly you wish to migrate from Zimbra to Dovecot. Since both support IMAP, imapsync is the way to go. The import/export option in Zimbra only works for moving mailboxes between zimbra servers. Plenty of examples of imapsync on the zimbra wiki.
