Zentyal - the small business server for Linux

Base installation on ubuntu 12.04 LTS

We are startigng with a bare ubuntu system with only ssh enabled.

First of all please update all packages and do some configurations:

vim /etc/apt/sources.list

Uncomment the following line:

deb http://archive.canonical.com/ubuntu precise partner

Then install the apt-add-repository-script and do a full system upgrade:

apt-get install -y python-software-properties
apt-get update && apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot

Install Zentyal

To be able to install the ppa reository add:

apt-add-repository ppa:zentyal/3.0
apt-get update


The base system then will be install via the command

apt-get -y install zentyal

This will install all prerequisites. Please prepare:

  • a mysql root password
  • the port for the webinterface, I suggest: 444 (for http://vserver:444)


Add an administrative account for zentyal

To be able to access the webinterface you have setup an administrativ user which belongs to the admin group:

useradd -G adm myAdmin
passwd myAdmin
...

Changing the REALM

Sometimes it can be necessary to alter the realm (kerberos). This will brake all user related modules and forces them to reinstall:

/usr/share/zentyal-users/reinstall
  1. Then klick on the "Ally"-Button on the upper right corner of the web-interface.
  2. Then go to "Users" -> "Mode...", change the realm and apply.
  3. Then you have to reenable the "Users"-module and apply the changes.
  4. Then you can also reenable the "Samba"-module and apply the changes.
