Hello,
    I have been trying to get kroupware working for a few days now.  I 
was able to successfuly install kroupware after I used a script I found 
on the Gentoo forums (http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=107740).  
Prior to installing kroupware using the script, I had already configured 
LDAP and it was working fine.  I had configured it to authenticate 
system users (via pam_ldap).  After the script finished the installation 
it started the bootstrap process, and from then on I have only had 
trouble.  I got the following error (password and domain edited) when I 
attempted to bootstrap:

I also noticed that /kolab/etc/openldap/slapd.conf file was corrupt.  
Everywhere it had dc=^[[D in place of the proper dc= entry.  I manually 
edited this file and specified dc=<my_domain>,dc=com and started ldap 
and it started just fine.  Then I tried to bootstrap again and it once 
again corrupted my slapd.conf and game the same error mentioned above. 

Also I noticed that the kolab_sslcert.sh I have installed is very 
different from the mentioned in the technical documentation.  Am I using 
outdated kolab software?  Please advice.

Thank  you,
Vijay Avarachen
