v3.5, I'm looking for the log that has the ip's of the external clients requesting pages from the zentyal web server.
The only log I have found so far for apache has the local ip 127.0.0.1 because of haproxy I believe.

v3.5.2
Mail Filter - Files ACL

The filter only occasionally blocks zip files, it will block exe consistently but not zip, which ironically, was the only reason for installing the Mail Filter module.

Does anyone have any experience getting the files filter to actually work?

When the 'http services' reverse proxy came about in v3.4 and v3.5,
when using an alternate https port for web server
when entering an address https://server:7777/webmail to access Roundcube,

the browser, chrome and ff, reset to http://server:7777/webmail and return no data,
if https:// is added back to the address the Roundcube login page will load and Roundcube will work thereafter.

Anyone have any ideas how to fix this so that alternate ports don't error and load the requested page?

This does not occur with the default port for the Zentyal admin page, only the alternate port.
This does not occur with the default or alternate ports in v3.3 and below.

v3.3
/etc/apache2$ cat ports.conf
NameVirtualHost *:80
Listen 80
Listen 7777

v3.4 and v3.5
/etc/apache2$ cat ports.conf
Listen 127.0.0.1:62080
Listen 127.0.0.1:62443

Installation and Upgrades / How to change netbios name ??
« on: July 11, 2014, 12:13:10 am »
I'd like to change the NetBIOS name from the hostname to another name, so I can swap servers around without having to change the workgroup clients every time.
Workgroup environment, non AD.
How is that best done in v3.5 and/or v3.3?

According to Zentyal docs;
http://doc.zentyal.org/en/filesharing.html#know-limitations
Quote
Your hostname can not match your NETBIOS name, the NETBIOS name is generated using the left part of the domain, for example, if your hostname is ‘zentyal’ your domain can not be ‘zentyal.lan’, but it could be ‘zentyal-domain.lan’

The auto generated netbios name should have been "blue" since the domain is "blue.local" but the netbios name generated is the same as the hostname "server".

According to /etc/samba/smb.conf
[global]
    workgroup = BLUE
    realm = BLUE.LOCAL
    netbios name = server
    server string = server
    server role = dc

Looking at;
/usr/share/zentyal/stubs/samba/smb.conf.mas the netbios name is an arg and I don't know where that arg is generated.

The documentation states it but the option isn't in the screenshot.
http://doc.zentyal.org/en/mail.html#general-configuration

Zentyal people claim it's been working for years, but I haven't seen it on dozens of installations.

There are many open threads here about it that are unresolved.

Google is calling everyone out that doesn't support it.

It's 2014, why is this still hidden or not supported?

Two Zentyal vm's, both 3.3.10, one shows the 3.4 upgrade banner with the upgrade button, the other does not.
Both incrementally upgraded from 3.2.

SMH.

Installation and Upgrades / Great work.
« on: April 11, 2014, 07:27:52 pm »
I just fired off the 3.3.7 Zentyal on 12.04 to 3.4.1 on Ubuntu 13.10.
It took about 40 min including downloads and after reboot, it came up without any issues that I could find in regular mail, file sharing and web serving.

Very impressive.

I did revert it back to 3.3.7 to stay on LTS because I can't be sure about the upgrade path for Zentyal from 13.10 to 14.04 LTS.

Following the component updates 4/8/2014 to a Zentyal 3.3.7, perhaps ftp 3.3.1 or file sharing (samba) 3.3.5 the ability to scan to ftp to Zentyal shares ended.

I reviewed the github changelog entries before applying the updates;
ftp 3.3.1
   + Fix the enabling of the chrootUsers option

and,
samba +3.3.5
     + ad-migrate: Detect offline role owner and seize roles
     + Fixed setting of printers permissions
     + s4sync: Check samba daemon is running

Regardless, after the failure, the dozen odd logs I monitored while testing were not logging errors or failures, but I eventually traced this down to the ftp module option Restrict to personal directories. I knew this wasn't working properly since install because I was able to ftp to shares outside of personal directories, once unchecked the printer was able to scan to ftp to samba shares again.

As always, remember, when presented with updates to community Zentyal, be afraid, be very afraid.

Interface eth0 is on an internal subnet with a default gateway and working.

Interface eth1 will be a internal subnet with its own gateway.

Only the networking module is installed.

None of the usual cli commands will show the full routing table with the correct gateway.
Adding an ip to eth1 and another gateway on eth1 does not allow traffic out to the second gateway, traceroute gives an error of refusal.

Is this possible to setup in the web gui?

I wish to segregate the network resources for those that want to know why.

I'm troubleshooting this for a penniless non-profit as I have time.

I'll attempt to keep this simple.

Four various windows clients as a workgroup sharing an old database software package and a few documents with file sharing.

Originally the database file and a few documents were shared from a windows xp laptop.

A few years ago a clearos 5.2 server was installed to share the database file and documents.

A decision was made to transition to Zentyal server a few months ago.

Two issues have arisen with Zentyal 3.3.

Once the database file was moved to the Zentyal 3.3 server the db has been slow to load and slow to update as new records were input.

When new documents are added to the Zentyal share, there is an intermittent delay in the windows clients ability to view the documents.

One thing I have observed in testing is that when a windows client, (xp, vista and win7) opens the local database software and loads the database from the Zentyal server, it takes about 56 seconds, consistently.

But, when the clearos server is brought online it takes the same client 5 seconds to load the local software and load the database file from the Zentyal server.

When the clearos server is offline the same clients again take 56 seconds to load the db file.

I see a number of general functionality complaints about samba 4 on Zentyal 3.3 on these forums lately.

Obviously, the users are very worried about corrupting the database.

I have had to move the database files back to clearos for their piece of mind.

Does anyone have any thoughts on how I can continue troubleshooting to resolve this so they can use Zentyal instead of an old version of ClearOS?

adding last post about continuing tests from the bottom of this thread for convenience.

Created another Zentyal 3.3 server6 with only file sharing and the required components intalled,

Created the same user and share on server6, copied the db file from server7 to the share on server6.

DB on server6 opens in any client in 2 to 5 seconds.

Copied db from new server6 to server7, db on server7 opens with any client in 3 to 5 seconds.

Shutdown new server6, server5 is and has been offline.

DB on server7 takes 40 to 50 seconds to open from any client.

Restart server6, DB on server7 takes 2 to 4 seconds to open on any client.

Wtf?

Anybody have any ideas?

Shutdown server7.

DB on server6 takes 2 to 4 seconds to open on any client.

Sigh.
