Zimbra automation using scripting.
How to change users's individual signatures based on their ldap attributes globally
Purpose
The purpose of this article is to show how to create a simple script which, can modify every user's signature globally, based on their ldap attribute values in ldap.
Resolution
For the purpose we will use two scripts. In the process I will explain why combining the two scripts into one will not work.
Script 1
#!/bin/bash
path="/opt/zimbra/bin"
for i in `/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaa`
do
echo -ne "Checking account: $i \t"
$path/zmprov ma $i zimbraPrefMailSignatureEnabled TRUE
signature=`$path/zmprov ga $i | egrep "(^cn|^ou|^company|^street|^telephoneNumber|^mobile|^title)" | cut -d : -f 2 | sed 's/^\ //g'`
$path/zmprov ma $i zimbraPrefMailSignatureEnabled TRUE zimbraPrefMailSignature "$signature"
echo "done!"
done
Script 2
- !/bin/bash
path="/opt/zimbra/bin"
for i in `/opt/zimbra/bin/zmprov -l gaa`
do
echo -ne "Adding SignatureID to account: $i \t"
signatureid=`$path/zmprov ga $i zimbraSignatureId | sed -n '2p' | cut -d : -f 2 | sed 's/^\ //g'`
$path/zmprov ma $i zimbraPrefDefaultSignatureId "$signatureid"
$path/zmprov ma $i zimbraPrefForwardReplySignatureId "$signatureid"
echo "done!"
done
