HowTos/Manual Installation Feisty Fawn

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

6. Install the required Packages

apt-get install apache2

apt-get install gawk

apt-get install krb5-config

apt-get install krb5-user

apt-get install libkadm55

apt-get install libkrb53

apt-get install libglib2.0-0

apt-get install libstdc++2.10-glibc2.2

apt-get install libxml

apt-get install sgml-base

apt-get install xml-core

apt-get install postgresql-8.1

apt-get install libsasl2-modules

apt-get install libsasl2-gssapi-mit

apt-get install sendmail

apt-get install elinks

apt-get install sun-java5-jre

7. Add Group and User, set shell und home directory

addgroup scalix

useradd -g scalix scalix

usermod -s /bin/false scalix

usermod -d /var/opt/scalix scalix
