We use the SOGo ZEG in a small accounting office with 5 users.

We modified it to fit our mail domain, and my plan is to download the 
new ZEG (without LDAP), modify it for our mail domain, provision Samba 
as a alternative to MS Active Directory and transfer our existing mail.


I should be able to handle user management with Webmin and Samba, but 
I'll consider iGestis

RE: [SOGo] Recommended setup?

2014-11-22 Thread Kai-Uwe Rommel
Hello,

I had asked for a recommended setup several weeks ago.
Probably I was not very clear in stating what my goal is.
I wanted to set up a mail server for personal/private use of my family.
Since several weeks/months ago I was evaluating choices for a complete,
free and powerful solution. I came to SOGo because of support for
calendars, webmail and ActiveSync.

Meanwhile I installed a base mail server on CentOS 6.6 with Postfix and 
Dovecot
and a few more tools, integrated/configured SpamAssassin, ClamAV via 
MailScanner
and installed/configured Postgrey.

I would now like to finally add SOGo to this server. My question is:

So far I have no Samba and no OpenLDAP on this server and I am using only 
a few
local Unix user accounts - because I don't need more.

Can I install SOGo now on my server as described above, without 
Samba/LDAP?
I would like to avoid Samba and OpenLDAP because I will never need more 
than
a handful (or two) of user accounts on this server, even if I add a few 
more
relatives and friends to it.

Re: [SOGo] Recommended setup?

2014-11-22 Thread Rolf Schirmacher
The key point with authentication is the authentication of your users - 
mail  calendar users, who do not need to have user accounts on your 
server. The authentication information for your users need to be stored 
in LDAP or SQL at the moment - unfortunately, from my perspective, but 
that is how it is.


On the other side, SOGo needs to authenticate itself to be a legitimate 
user for the database - that is the authentication you describe below. 
This is what need to be arranged for within your system and is agnostic 
to your (potentially non-system) users.


So, for my example (family use as well, however, with a handful of linux 
machines, so I did set up LDAP and Kerberos for authentification plus a 
file / data server to have a unified experience throughout all the 
machines), I needed to duplicate my Kerberos users within the SQL 
database, including their passwords. Now, if some user might decide to 
change his password in Kerberos, a separate change in SOGo would be 
required - a real nightmare, but luckily my family is not that keen on 
changing passwords...


I would strongly prefer to have a kerberized SOGo in this context - not 
sure, whether samba 4 would lead to some nicely integrated solution (my 
set-up is pre-samba4 and I do not have any Windows machines to deal with).


Hope this helps,

Rolf

 Hello,
 
 I want to set up a Sogo server for evaluation and/or personal use.
 I have followed the mailing list for quite some time and read the
 manual and FAQs, too.
 
 What would you recommend as the base OS? I am free in my choice
 and could use any of CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu or OpenSuSE. Probably
 I would feel most familiar with OpenSuSE but would not expect me
 to be helpless :-) with the other Linux variants - except CentOS 7.
 But as far as I can see, I should probably stick with CentOS 6.5
 in case I would select CentOS, right?

There are no official builds for SuSE, and the community builds appear
to have issues with pushing out recent updates (cf. yesterday's thread
by Frank Schneider).

As for the others, no idea, I haven't used SOGo on anything but Debian.
That will probably boil down to personal preference.

 I would prefer graphical or at least menu driven help for setting
 up the OS and the base services (SMTP, IMAP, OpenLDAP, Postgres).
 OpenSuSE has a good tool (Yast) for that purpose. But the other
 OS variants don't have such a powerful tool - or did I miss
 something? Do you have arguments against OpenSuSE for Sogo?

Debian/Ubuntu have a menu-driven configuration framework for some
services like SMTP servers, but that's about it. Everything else is
third-party and not guaranteed to work.

 For the base components ...
 - Cyrus or Dovecot?
 - Postfix or Sendmail?
 Has one significant advantages over the one?

SOGo is fairly agnostic about the mail infrastructure, this will depend
on your other requirements. For testing, Dovecot+Postfix should suffice,
as far as I know.

 Actually, it would be great if I could simply use the ready to
 use Sogo virtual appliance ... but the one available for download
 is SO outdated ...

There haven't been that many user-visible changes since the ZEG's
version, apart from tons of bugfixes. It should be sufficient for
evaluation.

 
 Thanks for your help!

Hello Kai-Uwe
I am not very good at installing all these required packages so I used 
http://www.onlinedemo.hu/71-zeg-install-script which uses Debian 12 LTS.
Beware that there are 2 things missing in this script:
It stops in part 10 and then you do
a2enmod version
service apache2 restart
and restart the script and in part 14 you do
a2enmod authnz_ldap
service apache2 restart
and restart. It installs all the things you need to get a working SOGo.
Oh and one other thing:
You use an older version of Debian so you have to do
sudo apt-get install linux-generic-lts-trusty linux-image-generic-lts-trusty
You get a complete working version and it only takes about 1,5 hour.

Onderwerp: [SOGo] Recommended setup?

Hello,

I want to set up a Sogo server for evaluation and/or personal use.
I have followed the mailing list for quite some time and read the
manual and FAQs, too.

What would you recommend as the base OS? I am free in my choice
and could use any of CentOS, Debian, Ubuntu or OpenSuSE. Probably
I would feel most familiar with OpenSuSE but would not expect me
to be helpless :-) with the other Linux variants - except CentOS 7.
But as far as I can see, I should probably stick with CentOS 6.5
in case I would select CentOS, right?

I would prefer graphical or at least menu driven help for setting
up the OS and the base services (SMTP, IMAP, OpenLDAP, Postgres).
OpenSuSE has a good tool (Yast) for that purpose. But the other
OS variants don't have such a powerful tool - or did I miss
something? Do you have arguments against OpenSuSE for Sogo?

For the base components ...
- Cyrus or Dovecot?
- Postfix or Sendmail?
Has one significant advantages over the one?

Actually, it would be great if I could simply use the ready to
use Sogo virtual appliance ... but the one available for download
is SO outdated ...

Thanks for your help!

Give to Nethserver a chance :-) (www.nethserver.org)
* based on CentOS 6.5
* simplified installation
* web ui for LDAP, smtp, imap
* install sogo with a click
* thunderbird addons ready to use and automatically customized

I've experimented with updating the ZEG to Ubuntu 14.04, and there were 
no issues.


However, that was before the recent OpenChange updates, so some 
adjustments might need to be made.


That said, it's likely Inverse will produce a new ZEG in the near future.

However, I am following the general instructions found here to build my own:

http://iabsis.com/EN/article/35/Installation-de-Samba4-et-Openchange-sur-un-serveur-Debian-ou-Ubuntu

And, cross-referencing the latest instructions from Inverse (for the 
latest versions)


I am building it as a virtual machine so it can be imported into our 
current infrastructure.

There haven't been that many user-visible changes since the ZEG's
version, apart from tons of bugfixes. It should be sufficient for
evaluation.
