If you want groupware functionality it actually isn't half bad, but I am really disappointed in Zentyal overall:

  • - no upgrade path to 3.0
  • - loud noises and no followup on Zentyal Desktop
  • - snarky followup on suggestions.

folks, this is ridiculous. Migration needs to be part of the plan, not something you stick on after.

What about Zarafa for instance? Yes I can migrate emails via IMAP client if need be (gee, thanks), what about address books and calendar info? And no upgrade-in-place? Disappointed I am. If you are planning to do better than the competition, you need to do better than the competition. :(

Installation and Upgrades / Re: Migration to Zentyal 3

No reply? Interesting. Also, what is the story with the migration tool? I need to hear about the migration tool before I need to hear about 3.2 ....

am i wrong to think that this is only just 1 step away from 'sub domain trusts and delegated domains in any future version of zentyal.
Indeed! especially for Zarafa!

Installation and Upgrades / zarafa edit user details
« on: February 22, 2012, 12:23:46 pm »
Hi guys

we are unsing Zarafa as integrated with Zentyal 2.2 and it is behaving rather well so far. My current problem is that I need to edit the user details ion the address book. I am not talking about zarafa-admin -u <username>, but about things like adding a phone number. I have tried to edit them from webaccess, and while i supposedly have admin permissions, I can edit the information and save it, but it does not get saved.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Installation and Upgrades / Posix ACLs and file system
« on: September 29, 2011, 12:08:40 pm »
Somebody please correct me, but I understand from what i have read so far that Zentyal uses Posix ACLs? If this is correct I am a) very happy since i strongly support the use of Posix ACLs and b) somewhat surprised that Zentyal uses ext4 as default FS. I was under the impression that the maximum EA size4kiB is somewhat limiting in this regard. So far I ahve used JFS for commercial installs, but XFS also look useful.

not yet - i need to reapproach it. There was one issue which i was thinking i might manually work around and then got sidetracked.

Installation and Upgrades / key hash in LDAP on Zentyal?
« on: August 22, 2011, 01:27:16 pm »
I have not been able to find out which key hash Zentyal uses. In the light of the existence of rainbow tables I would strongly request that it use a salted algorithm, ideally ssha512.

actually I will take this back.

ip address of my zentyal box is 10.140.39.3, subnetmask is 255.255.192.0, default gateway is 10.140.0.1

the client I am trying to connect with is 10.160.99.105. I can neither ping Zentyal from this machine nor this machine from Zentyal.

route just shows me

Code: [Select]
Kernel IP routing table
Destination         Gateway              Genmask           Flags    Metric    Ref    Use   Iface
10.140.0.0          *                         255.255.192.0  U         0            0      0       eth0

whereas

Code: [Select]
ip route show table default
default via 10.140.0.1

ping

route add default gw 10.140.0.1

leads to

Code: [Select]
Kernel IP routing table
Destination         Gateway              Genmask           Flags    Metric    Ref    Use   Iface
10.140.0.0          *                         255.255.192.0  U         0            0      0       eth0
0.0.0.0               10.140.0.1           0.0.0.0              UG       0            0      0       eth0

in any case an attempt to ping 10.160.99.105 end with "destination host unreachable" and a traceroute only gives me one line back which is the address of the local host.

Something is deeply wrong here :(

I just solved that one for me. You need to add a default gateway under network - gateways. And you need to put something into the name field! otherwise it doesn't get processed.

Let me state beforehand that i have used eGW since 1.2 and am just starting on Znetyal. I am hence be hampered by knwoing too much about eGW and not enough about Zentyal

I ran into the problem that it wanted me to updated the header the first moment I pointed my browser at /egroupware. That led to header administration, that led to setup and ldap configuration, as well as creating the database tables which were missing. Currently eGW can't bind to the ldap server but that of course is also solvable. is there a howto somewhere for this combination? And why does one have to do all this by hand? I had hoped that the installation would do this?

I am asking because I want to avoid abusing an automation that should actually work and that just somehow went awry in my case. If that automation isn't there, fine, I'll do it by hand, but I'd rather sound this out beforehand.

and BTW if anybody asks me why not zarafa? because Zarafa can't exchange contact data with linux clients. and for my own installation I need the multi-account facility of felamimail 1.8

thanks

Installation and Upgrades / Re: server sizing

I am actually expecting up to 1000 concurrent or even more. and yes I am aware that that will need quite a bot of a pipe. I am not sure the customer knows that yet. I'll find that out from the jabber geeks.

BTW does zentyal/ejabberd support conference facilities, ie chatrooms?

Installation and Upgrades / server sizing
« on: March 21, 2011, 01:48:09 pm »
Hi

I am looking to build a zentyal server for the following application:

Office services for ~10 users, possibly with eGW instead of Zarafa, since eGW is better at connecting non browser clients. But, and here comes the cinch:

potentially several 1000 Jabber users that must be able to do only jabber. And they need to be authenticated, since this is supposed to be a safe chat environment for schools.

My current idea of hardware is a Phenom 910e with 4 GB of RAM. Is that enough? Do I need more RAM? More CPU? halp! :)

thanks all

Bernhard
