I will be happy to add it to the wiki. The group should see it in the next
couple days.

Good deal Gilbert! Glad it was able to help you!
Would you please sign up for the wiki and type up the way that you did this?
I know that others would find it very useful.
Thanks,
Scott

I have ran through this instruction set and I have to say that it is great.
The following additional rpms need to be installed...
1. php-devel
2. php-imap
The pecl command needs to be changed to the following,,,
pecl install Imagick json LZF geoip
If pecl fails like it did for me with ImageMagick you should refer to the
following bug...
http://pecl.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=18057
After running the pecl command and answering with defaults you need to add
the following 4 lines into the php.ini file.
extension=imagick.so
extension=geoip.so
extension=lzf.so
extension=json.so
I also found that you have to add the user to the database server, I
thought it would do it when I adjusted the sql script with my prefered
password, but I was wrong.
In some of my searches on the web to fill in holes in my knowledge, I found
the following security settings are recommended...
Security configuration
Secure config files:
chown apache:root -R /var/www/html/horde/config
chown apache:root -R /var/www/html/horde/*/config
chmod -R go-rwx /var/www/html/horde/config
chmod -R go-rwx /var/www/html/horde/*/configSecure scripts:
chown -R root:root /var/www/html/horde/scripts
chown -R root:root /var/www/html/horde/*/scripts
chmod -R go-rwx /var/www/html/horde/scripts
chmod -R go-rwx /var/www/html/horde/*/scriptsSecure test.php:
chmod a-rwx /var/www/html/horde/test.php
chmod a-rwx /var/www/html/horde/*/test.phpThanks for the help list.

I need a good web interface for my Qmail Toaster. I know it has been
discussed on this list many times before, but I have to ask. I would like a
nice Commercial looking interface to direct my customers to, what would the
group suggest? I do not care if it is a squirelmail skin that I have to pay
for or some other completely different application.
Thank you,

I presume you mean a mail client application, not an administrative
one.
There will be a Horde webmail package available for QMT at some point
in the not too distant future, I expect by the end of the year.
Egroupware also has a nice webmail app (from what I've heard).
There are also skins for squirrelmail, some of which would require you
to use their package instead of squirrelmail-toaster, which only means that you
might have a little configuration to do with it. The squirrelmail configuration
isn't difficult.
Basically, any web app that's imap/smtp compatible should work just
fine. Take your pick.
I couldn't locate the Horde install guide on the wiki site, but here is
Anil's guide that should take care of you!
Horde Configuration Guide:
(Assuming you are using Centos 5 or RHEL 5 distro but horde
installation steps will remain same in all linux distros)
Step 1:
Download horde tar file into any downloads folder
wget ftp://ftp.horde.org/pub/horde-webmail/horde-webmail-latest.tar.gz
go to the www root folder.
# cd /var/www/html
# tar -zxvf /path to you horde download folder/horde-webmail-latest.tar.gz
# mv horde-webmail-1.2.6 horde
# cd horde
Install Required PHP modules:
# yum -y install GeoIP geoip-devel gd ImageMagick ImageMagick-devel
ImageMagick-perl
# yum -y install php-mbstring php-gettext php-gd php-xml php-mcrypt
php-pecl-Fileinfo
# pecl install Imagic json LZF geoip
edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf and add the following:
<Directory /var/www/html/horde>
Options Includes SymLinksIfOwnerMatch
AllowOverride All
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
AcceptPathInfo On
php_flag track_vars On
#php_admin_value memory_limit 384M
php_admin_value post_max_size 20M
</Directory>
# service httpd restart
http://your-server-ip/horde/test.php
check if all required php modules are installed Step 2.
Step 2:
Now Configure Horde:
# cd /var/www/html/horde
Before executing the setup.php script we need to change the default
password for user horde in the sql script for horde database creation. If you
don't want to change the default password skip this step and directly to Step3
and run the setup script:
# vi scripts/sql/create.mysql.sql
USE mysql;
REPLACE INTO user (host, user, password)
VALUES (
'localhost',
'horde',
-- IMPORTANT: Change this password.
PASSWORD('horde') <---------------(Change you
password here)
);
save the file and proceed to step 3.
Step 3:
# cd /var/ww/html/horde
# php scripts/setup.php
