Hi Zentyal users,
As we have already mentioned, we've been working on Zentyal Desktop and we're now glad to announce the availability of the first alpha version!
Zentyal Desktop is an Ubuntu package intended to be installed on the desktop clients (workstations) of a network managed by Zentyal Server. It offers authentication against Zentyal LDAP and auto-configuration of desktop clients for the services provided by Zentyal.
Please note that this is still alpha software (it's the first version indeed), so it's not intended for production environments. There are some known issues with the software auto-configuration, but the authentication against the Zentyal Server LDAP should work. As many of the community members have been very interested in testing the Zentyal Desktop, we've decide to release this version.
This version is compatible with Zentyal Server 2.0 for Ubuntu 10.04 and 10.10 clients. We also plan to release a new version, compatible with Windows XP and 7 clients very soon.
Your help in testing it, giving us feedback, or even sending patches fixing stuff
would be really really appreciated. Here you can find all the information about installing and configuring Zentyal Desktop:
