	Limit access to Global Address Book by Tom Jensen :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message I am using Squirrelmail 1.4.13 on an Ubuntu 8.04 LTS machine. The database backend for Squirrelmail is MySQL. Squirrelmail was installed using the normal apt-get command on the command line. The server hosts email for several domains. Some users have asked for a global address book. When I enabled the settings for the global address book and began testing, the new address was visible to users in all domains. How can I limit access to the global address book? My desire would be to have a global address book per domain on the server. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ----- squirrelmail-users mailing list Posting guidelines: http://squirrelmail.org/postingguidelines List address: squirrelmail-users@...

In SquirrelMail functions/addressbook.php addressbook_init function you have ---- $r = $abook->add_backend('database', Array('dsn' => $addrbook_global_dsn, 'owner' => 'global', 'name' => _("Global address book"), 'writeable' => $addrbook_global_writeable, 'listing' => $addrbook_global_listing, 'table' => $addrbook_global_table)); ---- Change it to ---- if (preg_match("/(.)@(.)/",$username,$match)) { $abook_domain=$match[2]; } else { global $domain; $abook_domain=$domain; } $r = $abook->add_backend('database', Array('dsn' => $addrbook_global_dsn, 'owner' => $abook_domain, 'name' => _("Global address book"), 'writeable' => $addrbook_global_writeable, 'listing' => $addrbook_global_listing, 'table' => $addrbook_global_table)); ---- Or create custom address book plugin which its new address book with owner set to user's domain. Since you are using SquirrelMail Ubuntu package, custom plugin solution is better.
	Re: Limit access to Global Address Book by Tom Jensen :: Rate this Message: Reply to Author \| View Threaded \| Show Only this Message For now, I just made the changes you suggested to the addressbook.php file. I saved a copy locally in the event that a later update would "undo" my changes. But the changes you suggested worked great and accomplished the task. Thank you.

I had implemented the patch above on the old system and it provided the solution I needed. Are there any concerns with implementing the same patch on the 1.4.15 version?
