Scalix Forums

I am with an orginization that is considering Scalix for our mail server. We host over 40 domains, with users using the usual Outlook, Outlook Express, Netscape, Mozilla & Eudora desktop clients. They also enjoy webamil capabilites. Can Scalix host multiple domains to fit our needs?

Yes it can. You can add as many domains as you like. Our admin console allows to pick a domain for a users email address from a drop down list.

Domains are a comma seperated list in ubermanager.properties.

Thanks for the quick reply. Can users login to their accounts via webmail? We're currently using iPlanet.

can one delegate creation/deletion/modification of accounts on a per-domain basis???

I've got several domains listed in ubermanager.properties from the original install, but no dropdown menu in SAC.

Where should it be?

Thanks

They sure can. Scalix Web Access (SWA) is IMHO the best web mail client around.

There is no security model based on domains, but you can get close to that using different mailnodes on different servers, e.g. have a server in Paris administered by the local admin there and have a server in London the Paris folks cannot administer. Is that what you meant?

Sascha.

Hi,

for that list to show up, it needs to be a comma separated list, please post the whole line you edited here.

Also, for the changes to become active, you need to restart Tomcat.

Cheers,

Sascha.

Hi Sascha,

I haven't edited the file, I added the domains on the install.

The file is...

# comma separated list of local domains for available for Scalix mail users. If none is specified
# then administers can type in domains in the console during user creation
ubermanager.console.localDomains=emsolutions.co.uk,one-web.com,humphreys.org.uk,psh1.com,bak-rak.com,austrey.com
# comma separted list of domains available for authenthication outside of scalix
ubermanager.console.authDomains=
#
# Flag to determine if this file has been configured
# value will be 'true' when the configurator is run
# after rpm is installed.
ubermanager.configured=true


Many thanks

Hi,

ok, the line looks good, have you restarted Tomcat?

Cheers,

Sascha.
