Zimbra
is the Email Server software that rich of functions and can replace
Exchange Server to reduce the cost. After bought by VMware and change
the name to VMware Zimbra but the business model still the same. There is ZCS Open Source Edition
that you can use without any cost. Also if you want more function like
working with Outlook, iPhone, Android including large scale like
clustering you can buy ZCS Network Edition that still cheaper than Exchange Server
This article will focus on install ZCS Open Source Edition on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. These are requirement
The latest version for now is Zimbra Collaboration Suite Open Source Edition 7.1.3 GA

If success so we will enter to Administration page

Or you can test by go to Zimbra webmail http://webmail.zimbra.wingfoss.com then put the username admin and password

If success so you will see webmail interface

This article will focus on install ZCS Open Source Edition on Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. These are requirement
- Server with fresh install Ubuntu Server 10.04 LTS (Lucid Lynx) 64-bit
- This server hostname will be webmail.zimbra.wingfoss.com
- 1 Public IP
- Domain that config DNS A and MX record to mapped with public IP on server
- In this example will use @zimbra.wingfoss.com
Preparing before install Zimbra
sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgrade sudo apt-get autoremove sudo apt-get install openssh-server libperl5.10 sysstat sqlite3 sudo shutdown -r now
wget http://files.zimbra.com/downloads/7.1.3_GA/zcs-7.1.3_GA_3346.UBUNTU10_64.20110928134610.tgz tar xvfz zcs*.tgz cd zcs*
Install BIND9 for NAT 1-1
In many case, your server didn't got public IP directly. But you got public IP by NAT by network device. In this condition you have to use Split DNS as Zimbra suggest- Install bind9
sudo apt-get install bind9
- edit /etc/bind/named.conf.options by the line forwarders change to our DNS IP then append zone that the bottom of line
options { directory "/var/cache/bind"; // If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want // to talk to, you may need to fix the firewall to allow multiple // ports to talk. See http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113 // If your ISP provided one or more IP addresses for stable // nameservers, you probably want to use them as forwarders. // Uncomment the following block, and insert the addresses replacing // the all-0's placeholder. forwarders { 8.8.8.8; }; auth-nxdomain no; # conform to RFC1035 listen-on-v6 { any; }; }; zone "zimbra.wingfoss.com" { type master; file "db.zimbra.wingfoss.com"; };
- then create /var/cache/bind/db.zimbra.wingfoss.com don't forget to change filename to match with zone file
$ttl 38400 @ IN SOA webmail.zimbra.wingfoss.com. webmail.zimbra.wingfoss.com. ( 2011091202 10800 3600 604800 38400 ) IN NS ns1.zimbra.wingfoss.com. IN NS ns2.zimbra.wingfoss.com. IN A 192.168.100.20 IN MX 10 webmail.zimbra.wingfoss.com. @ A 192.168.100.20 ns1 A 192.168.100.20 ns2 A 192.168.100.20 webmail A 192.168.100.20
- Then edit /etc/resolv.conf and change nameserver to 127.0.0.1
search zimbra.wingfoss.com nameserver 127.0.0.1
- restart bind9
sudo /etc/init.d/bind9 restart
- Test by dig command and it should return like below
