Installation and Upgrades / Re: Add-On: BackupPC request.

I use backuppc on sme-server (yeah it's the devil, it's RPM), but the sme use perl too.

i post this address if you want to ask somes questions to the developper.

for the moment on ebox, you can use backuppc, but you need to set manualy the user password.
 sudo htpasswd /etc/backuppc/htpasswd 'user'
Indeed it is interesting to create separate users to access for themselves to their backup, because the user base after the installation is the admin (backupc), so with all the rights.

also it would be more convenient if the management of users were included in ebox, certainly with LDAP authentication

Installation and Upgrades / change the default egroupware language

« on: August 15, 2009, 01:03:15 pm »

you can change the default language in egroupware.

first you need to go to  https://the.ip.ebox/egroupware/setup in your favorite web browser (firefox of course... )
then you need a password...
 in your x-term write this by ssh ( ssh user@ip.ebox ) or on your server prompt

sudo cat /var/lib/ebox/conf/ebox-egroupware.passwd

now you have the password for the login in the 'Setup/Config Admin Login'

the login : ebox
the pwd  : your password

The username 'ebox' is for the domain configuration, for the header configuration the username is 'admin', the password is the same.

then after select the menu 'manage language'

now you can select your language.(you can choice many of it....press the ctrl-key or the shift-key during the choice)

to use your language for your users, you need to set the language for each users, (in egroupware, menu 'preference/common preferences' and set your language as default)

or if your user is an admin in egroupware (to set this you need to create a new 'user defined template' in the menu 'groupware' of ebox and add the menu 'admin', after in the ebox's menu 'user', you need to activate the right permission template in 'egroupware-account')

you can set the forced preferences in the menu 'preferences/common preferences/forced preferences' and set the language for all your users

you can too, enable the option 'Should the login page include a language selectbox (useful for demo-sites) ?' to yes in the menu 'Admin/site configuration' of egroupware (your user need the admin privilege in the ebox-egroupware menu)

sorry for my english, i'm french
