Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) Open Source Edition v5.0 On Debian Etch
Version 1.0

This document describes how to set up the Zimbra Collaboration Suite (ZCS) Open
Source Edition v5.0 on Debian Etch. The resulting system provides a full feature
d collaboration-suite with many features that I can't list all here - please hav
e a look at the feature list. It also comes with a nice (themeable) AJAX web int
erface for administration and user access.
This howto is a practical guide without any warranty - it doesn't cover the theo
retical backgrounds. There are many ways to set up such a system - this is the w
ay I chose.

1 Preparation
Install a standard Debian Etch system and update it. I used a network installati
on (only standard system).

2 Hostname
You have to assign the hostname to the server ip. It is very important that the
fqdn entry appears before the hostname.
vi /etc/hosts
It should look like this:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.0.110 server1.example.com server1
# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

Afterwards insert the hostname into the hostname file ...


echo server1.example.com > /etc/hostname
... and reboot the system.
reboot
When the system is up again, the output of the both commands ...
hostname
... and ...
hostname -f
... should be:
server1.example.com

3 DNS
You need a running DNS server in your LAN that contains a valid A & MX record fo
r this server - otherwise Zimbra won't work. I used another server (192.168.0.10
0) running mydns for this howto. Add the nameserver's IP to the resolve configur
ation:
vi /etc/resolv.conf
The nameserver on your LAN has to be the first entry. It should look like this:
nameserver 192.168.0.100
nameserver 192.168.0.2

4 Exim
Deinstall Exim - Zimbra comes with it's own mailserver.
apt-get remove --purge exim4 exim4-base exim4-config exim4-daemon-light

5 Needed packages
Let's install some needed packages (maybe some of these packages are already ins
talled on your system).
apt-get install libc6-i686 sudo libidn11 curl fetchmail libgmp3c2 libexpat1 libg
etopt-mixed-perl libxml2 libstdc++6 libpcre3 libltdl3 ssh

6 Get Zimbra
Please take a look at http://www.zimbra.com/community/downloads.html to see whic
h is the latest version. Download and unpack it.
cd /tmp/
wget http://files.zimbra.com/downloads/5.0.2_GA/zcs-5.0.2_GA_1975.DEBIAN4.0.2008
0130234700.tgz
tar xvfz zcs-5.0.2_GA_1975.DEBIAN4.0.20080130234700.tgz

7 Install Zimbra
7.1 Start The Installation
Be sure that no other services like sendmail, postfix or mysql are running!
cd /tmp/zcs-5.0.2_GA_1975.DEBIAN4.0.20080130234700
./install.sh -l
Read the license agreement and press "Enter" to continue. Zimbra will now check
if all prequisites are installed on the system. The output should look like this
:
Checking for prerequisites...
NPTL...FOUND
sudo...FOUND sudo-1.6.8p12-4
libidn11...FOUND libidn11-0.6.5-1
fetchmail...FOUND fetchmail-6.3.6-1etch1
libpcre3...FOUND libpcre3-6.7+7.4-2
libgmp3c2...FOUND libgmp3c2-2:4.2.1+dfsg-4
libxml2...FOUND libxml2-2.6.27.dfsg-2
libstdc++6...FOUND libstdc++6-4.1.1-21
openssl...FOUND openssl-0.9.8c-4etch1
libltdl3...FOUND libltdl3-1.5.22-4
Prerequisite check complete.
Checking for standard system perl...
perl-5.8.8...FOUND standard system perl-5.8.8

7.2 Select The Packages To Install


Install zimbra-ldap [Y] Y
Install zimbra-logger [Y] Y
Install zimbra-mta [Y] Y
Install zimbra-snmp [Y] Y
Install zimbra-store [Y] Y
Install zimbra-apache [Y] Y

The system will be modified. Continue? [N] Y
Now the packages are being installed - this could take a while.

like this:

8 Zimbra Web Interface
I'll show you some screenshots, but no detailed information about the usage of t
he web interface - the possible settings are too extensive. Please have a look a
t the admin guide and the wiki.

8.1 Administration Console


You can access the administration web interface via https://server1.example.com:
7071/zimbraAdmin/ . Log in with the username "admin" (without the quotes) and th
e password that you assigned to this account at step 7.3.
Welcome to the administration console - make yourself familar with it.
Click to enlarge
If you want to have mail adresses like $user@example.com instead of $user@server
1.example.com you have to create a new domain. Click on "Domains" in the main me
nu on the left side and afterwards on "New" in the window menu (Manage Domains).
Click to enlarge
Enter "example.com" (without the quotes) as domain name, set the domain status t
o active and click on "Finish".
Click to enlarge
Click to enlarge
Click on "Accounts" in the main menu on the left side and afterwards on "New" in
the window menu (Manage Accounts) to create a new user.
Click to enlarge
A wizard will guide you through the creation of the new account. Take care that
you select the right domain (example.com) for this account. Note: I created the
account olli@example.com .
Click to enlarge
Afterwards mark the new account in the accounts-list and click on "Edit".
Click to enlarge
Enter a desired password for the new account (Tab "General Information") and cli
ck on "Save" in the window menu. Note: I chose "howtoforge" (without the quotes)
as password.
Click to enlarge
Log out and proceed with the next step.

8.2 User Access


Open http://server1.example.com within your browser and log in with the user acc
ount that you created at step 8.1.
Make familar with the web interface.
