but it does not work
Itried freenode.net#kolab for some advise but I faced ldap server problem

tried this http://www.ezunix.org/index.php?title=Set_up_LDAP_Server_on_Debian_Linux
it was awful don't try it!!

tried this script to remove every kolab installed http://git.kolab.org/kolab-scripts/plain/cleanup-and-start-over.sh

۱۸:۵۵:۳۶ - Fenuks: there was a script, wait a bit
۱۸:۵۶:۰۲ - Fenuks: mrafiee: http://git.kolab.org/kolab-scripts/tree/cleanup-and-start-over.sh

2. Type `make' to compile the package.

3. Optionally, type `make check' to run any self-tests that come with
