Move your existing /kolab out of the way, run obmtool. You can abort
installation as soon as the first package was installed. This
creates the three kolab users (kolab, kolab-r, kolab-n) and some
files in /etc.

Now remove the newly created /kolab directory and move your old copy
back. Verify that the files are owned by the newly created kolab
users.

Now everything should be fine again and you can start your server.
