My work is going through a painful multi-site MS Exchange migration at the moment, and me being the Linux person, I said 'why don't you use Linux - less $$ on hardware, more reliable, easier to manage, etc'. But then I realised I wouldn't know how to do the stuff on Linux that can be done on Exchange... ;-)
I'm quite comfortable setting up a Linux (postfix) mail server for a single site, with spam and virus scanning, IMAP access, iptables firewalling, etc, but how would I do the following? * setup my mail servers so that mail for users at different sites (Sydney, Melbourne say) gets routed to the correct sites? I could use different domains ([EMAIL PROTECTED] and [EMAIL PROTECTED]), but that's messy.. * have a multi-site email address book? I imagine something with LDAP; what client app would I use? * have multi-site calendaring? I know I can do things with Ximian Evolution for individual users, but multi-user multi site... This isn't a 'help me now' email ;-) - I'm just interested in any pointers people have, things I could investigate further, ... -- Sonia Today's Tip from Debian NewbieDoc.... Looking to use your Debian machine as a FIREWALL? No problem! Try apt-get install ipmasq... After you've got your /etc/network/interfaces file set up properly, ipmasq will save you lots of work, setting up firewall and routing tables automatically. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group - http://slug.org.au/ More Info: http://lists.slug.org.au/listinfo/slug
