Okay, we probably should change that.

No, you don't need to configure anything. Horde on Kolab should be
pretty much configured through the template system.

No, you should not log in as "manager" with Horde. If you wan't to
administrate the Horde instance you should rather add one of your
users as administrator in /kolab/var/kolab/www/horde/config/conf.php

$conf['auth']['admins'] = array('manager', 'myuser at example.com');

You don't need to do that because at the end of conf.php is a stanza
like this:

if (file_exists(dirname(__FILE__) . '/kolab.php')) {
  require_once(dirname(__FILE__) . '/kolab.php');
}

This loads the kolab.php file in the same directory and this one is
written via the template mechanism.

That may be somewhat confusing because the values in conf.php just
hold dummy values and get overwritten by kolab.php. This is currently
required since we cannot mix the possibility to administrate the
configuration via Kolab templates AND the Horde administration web
frontend.

This of course holds only true if you really wish to administrate and
modify the Horde installation. By default Horde should work out of the
box without the requirement to modify anything.

Cheers,

Gunnar
