Since I encountered problems installing Scalix with the existing instructions under Ubuntu 7.04 Feisty Fawn, I decided to create another installation instruction.

First I installed Ubuntu 7.04 Server, which still needs some configuration.

1. You have to edit your /etc/hosts and make sure that your hostname is in the right format. Check if hostname gives back the name of your system and hostname --fqdn the full name with domain.

2. Give root a password so that you can later perform su - 

  sudo passwd root
  First give your current password for your user, then the new password for root.

3. Edit /etc/apt/sources.list and comment the line that refers to the cdrom-drive as installation medium. 

  Uncomment the other lines that gives you access to all packets available.

4. Install OpenSSH Server because you will need this for remote administration. apt-get install openssh-server

5. Make an installation directory, for example /install 

  mkdir /install
