hello everynody, Right now i am selfhosting several services for my family in an effort to de-google all our services.

Right now i am facing difficulties to host a server that can be use to sync smartphone contacts from diffurent users (my family) and keeping them separated.

does anybody recommend any server able to serve this goal? and if the auth backend can be connected to an LDAP server even better.

regards and thanks

    Oh man! I’m using FreeIPA and I’m way in over my head. lldap looks like a great replacement! Question: do you know if/how I can migrate my (little) directory without recreating every user and group (AND resetting their passwords)?

      I don’t know if there is any specific utilities for that. You can always export your settings and reimplement them in lldap: this should be doable with a python script.

      I never really understand why LDAP was so complicated. There must be needs in big setups that I am aware of but strangely I always found it not intuitive.
