Did you use OOo to generate the HTML and PDF?  Could OOo generate links
from the TOC to the contents?

The images seem to be artificially scaled down, which makes the text on
them illegible.

Under "Filesystem Layout", /ispman/domains, there are example user
directories of

example.com/users/atif_domain_com

example.com/users/arno_domain_com

Which should be

example.com/users/atif_example_com

example.com/users/arno_example_com

Exactly what "processes" are and why they're necessary does not seem to
be explained (at least, not in the "Processes" section).

The ldapvirtual stuff works for Postfix 1.1 also, if compiled for it.  I
also set up Postfix to use an LDAP map for 'relay_domains' (the only big
difference is the query_filter and result_attribute):

I think you've got the headings for the "PureFTPd" and "ProFTPd"
sections backwards.

The first two images in chapter 5 are missing in the on-line version:
missing "1. Click on Add Domain, filling out these pieces of info:" and
"2. The next screen looks like this".

One thing I've recently done for migration (the only one I've done so
far) is to modify the migration tool from PADL to generate the entries I
wanted.  'uid' seems to work okay as a multi-valued attribute, and to
avoid the trouble of figuring out all the right filters, I just created
entries with both 'username' and 'username_example_com'.
