Installation and Upgrades / [SOLVED] Integration with Google Apps?

« on: December 08, 2010, 10:03:09 pm »

We have been using Google Apps for quite some time mostly for GMail. Our users really like it and we plan to stick with it.

We really don't have a need for a full email setup in our Zentyal server, however it would be nice for the server to send out alerts to us via email.

Is there a good way to integrate Google Apps so Zentyal can send emails out to our email address?

Anyone else doing something similar?

Installation and Upgrades / [SOLVED] Backup taking days to complete.

« on: December 02, 2010, 02:00:56 am »

I have a problem where my backup process is running for days when backing up to a local disk.

I had my backup process set to do full backups starting Sunday at 1AM with incremental backups daily after that.  I couldn't get screenshots to attach to the post but here are some shots of my config: http://www.flickr.com/photos/plecebo/sets/72157625385035525/

Here is some information:

Code: [Select]

ls -l /home | grep backup
drwxrwxrwx 2 root    root      32768 2010-11-29 22:00 backup
An ls -l of /home/backup showing all the files, thier sizes, and timestamps. http://pastebin.com/xQNAguCL

Code: [Select]

cat /home/backup/ebox-backup.log
No increments older than Wed Dec 31 16:01:30 1969 found, exiting.
The full backup runs for days and prevents the incremental backups from firing off.

A full backup of this amount of data (100GB max) to a local drive should not take that long.
I have the latest zentyal installed with backup version 2.0.5

I need to be able to backup this server, at this point the only backups I feel I can rely on is my RDIFF Backups, id rather backup locally then rsync the backup files to my backup server for double protection.

If you need more information let me know. The backup sittuation (or lack thereof) is really frustrating.

Installation and Upgrades / Firewall dropping LDAP packets.

« on: October 13, 2010, 10:52:33 pm »

I have my Zentyal server setup with eth0 as the internal interface and my DHCP range from 192.168.1.100-200. eth2 is my external network.

I'm seeing a lot of packets (20-30 a minute) dropped on my internal eth0 interface from my Windows 7 machines back to zentyal (192.168.1.1).

I'm just wondering if this is normal, or if I should look into opening the ports for internal network -> zentyal traffic?

Installation and Upgrades / Trouble resolving internal hostnames

« on: October 06, 2010, 11:46:07 pm »

I have a Zentyal install working as a PDC with a few window boxes and a few Linux servers living behind it on the internal network.

I think I've set things up pretty well, but am running into trouble resolving host names on my internal network. Zentyal is acting as a DNS cache and functions well in that respect to external names.

Example, on my zentyal server I try to resolve another machine name on my network "zeus":

Code: [Select]

dig zeus

I can ping/connect to items via IP address just not hostname.

This may be more an OS problem (Ubuntu 10.04 64bit Server) but I have not been able to find any information regarding what is misconfigured.

Thanks for any help you can provide.
