By the way, I can't login as "manager" in http://[server name]/kolab no 
more. After reinstalling Kolab packages and executing 
/usr/sbin/kolab_bootstrap -b, I also configured Kolab through the 
"groupware server" section in drakconf, giving the password for the 
"manager" user, but it won't let me access anymore. I also tried to 
rename the /usr/sbin/kolab_bootstrap.real file and reexecuting 
/usr/sbin/kolab_bootstrap -b and configuring Kolab with drakconf again, 
but with the same result.
