Minimal install CentOS

[Nexis]

Cn I do a minimal install and add the scalix packs after it without the X server. SO that I hav a lite install. Are there other tuning parameters on the server site and for the webclient? Because I want to server 1600 mailboxes worldwide. They won't have alot of traffic.

Can it be run in init3 ? And is it normal that apache is not autmotic started after a reboot?

CentOS is not an officially supported OS. If you search this forum you will find how others were able to make it work. No you don't need X as the installer with release 10 has a cli. Be sure to read the install guide for required packages.

Generally apache has to be configured by the admin to start on boot. Varies from OS to OS but this might work for you:

chkconfig --level 3 httpd on

So If I install it on RH EL 4 in minimal mùode what are the packages I need to install to hav a minimal configuration that works without the gui or browsers. I would like to have a list of the rpm that are nedded by scalix on top of the minimalintsall.
So that I can hav max security an max performance. Are ther some othe changes to to OS to reach max performace. I hav an amd dual core an 3 GB ram an a harrdware raid controller

This is documented in the install guide.

If you want to know exactly what files are required, use the command

Code: Select all

rpm -q --requires -p /path/to/scalix-server.rpm
