Scalix as basis for a small office server

I'm considering a CentOS box running Scalix as a possible replacement for a MS Small Business Server, but I need to provide file/print, DHCP, DNS and perhaps a small LAMP wiki or kb application in addition to the email and collaboration that Scalix would provide. Any problem with all of this running on the same box? Thanks

I have a few SMB servers out there running Scalix, DNS, file/print all on one server. No problems thus far. Not sure about LAMP though.

Hi

There should be no issues in doing this for only a few users.

No problems whatsover.

I have plenty of systems at entry level standard. 2gb memory, software raid mirrored sata disks, pentium d or dual core processors, scalix, samba, dhcp, internal dns, apache, less than 10 users.

I use entry level HP ML110 servers and just increase disk and memory sizes.

Everything works fine and is a far better choice than MS SBS.
