Hi!

I'm currently running an ox 0.8.6 test installation. I'm planing now to migrate to ox and I've some questions I'm not 100% sure of. 

0. what should I use as base for ldap?

for the test system i used: dc=ox,dc=hitt,dc=at.
But I can't say why its good or bad. Would be dc=hitt,dc=at or dc=hitt alone be better?

1.  if I want to use a second domain on the server. does this change the above question? where do I need to define that domain, only in adduser_ox and in the mta settings?

2. I took a look at luma as ldap client. Is it save to change stuff in the ldap or is that bad because the data is also stored somewhere else? Which data is save to change only in ldap

3. Whats the best way to define aliases? is there a ox way or is done only by the mta?

4. if I create a user mail-test, and than a aliase hans.test --> mail-test the internal adressbook still shows mail-test at hitt.at 

5. where can I find a list of all options I can use for adduser_ox and changeuserattr_ox?

6. how can I change the password of an user with the *_ox command line tools? should I use/install resetuserpasswd_ox? is it save to change it with an ldap client like luma?

Please answer also if you know only the answer for one of the questions. thx

ps: I'm missing a FAQ part in the wiki, I'll add a new page to the wiki with the answers to my questions.
