Check your quota settings, default in the User Template is 500mb. So your users are probably limited to that.
Also, with regards to your newbie status to Linux, regarding investing a lot of time into v3.5, I highly recommend you read this whole thread: https://forum.zentyal.org/index.php/topic,22671.0.html

News and Announcements / Re: Zentyal 4.0 Roadmap Published!
« on: August 13, 2014, 02:31:22 am »
I've always used Zentyal as a mail, web and file server, behind gateways, for really small business and true non-profits, places using mostly home versions of windows.
That said I'm not sure at this point how 4.0 will fit in, if it won't have a public facing web server, I'm still not clear on that, it'll be tough for me to justify investing anymore time in Zentyal but when 4 is released I'll check it out.
So, for my installations, a couple dozen, I'll continue to use v3.3 for new installs, because of the basic server functionality listed above as well as Nut, Monitor, Events, Mail Filter and Roundcube. It's easier than rolling my own and most importantly, security updates from Ubuntu will be good until 2017.
I don't think anyone should be using v3.4 since it's built on 13.10 which will be dead very soon.
I don't think anyone should be using v3.5 since it's a bastard child and though it's built on 14.04, good till 2019, v4.0 will be such a change where could that possibly leave v3.5?
Certainly no one should trust an upgrade to v4, I've had successful upgrades from 3.3 to 3.4 but that's scary and still not trustworthy.
No, I'll continue with 3.3 iso installs until I find a replacement, ClearOS went weird with v6 and I still haven't sussed that out yet.
There's also webmin on 14.04 for basic server.

I'll have to check out this egroupware.
As you say, once 4.0 comes out Zentyal will become useless for most everything that I need at my sites except file sharing and email, and 3.2 will die out quickly, so that's that I guess.
It was nice while it lasted.

« on: July 16, 2014, 12:45:35 am »
The community version 3.5 is not ready or supported, if you're trying to do a production migration you would save a lot of heartache to wait a couple of months for v4 to release.
It's just not worth it.

I would set the updates to manual in the gui admin interface.
I would then go to the terminal and run sudo apt-get update, if there are no errors you could return to the gui admin interface and see what's available and attempt to update a few packages from there.

Installation and Upgrades / Re: v3.4 and v3.5 https error prompting browsers to return to http
« on: July 15, 2014, 12:00:32 am »
Yeah, I'd hoped 3.5 would be usable but I see it's problematic, I should have stuck with 3.3 or even 3.2 for this.
We'll see if 4 is the real deal or not, I used 3.5 because I hope it'll have a smooth upgrade to 4.0.
It's a shame really, I've given up spending any time trying to work out what they're doing, it takes hours to setup and test, which is fine, but since the developers won't invest any time with the community, don't give a shit I guess, well, I won't bother either. Jeez, they pulled ftp out, really?!? How are you supposed to do anything with the web server? cp at the cli from shares? lol!

Installation and Upgrades / v3.4 and v3.5 https error prompting browsers to return to http
« on: July 12, 2014, 09:05:47 pm »
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

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
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.

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’

Installation and Upgrades / Re: zentyal backup feature
« on: June 14, 2014, 12:10:37 am »
It's not a full backup, you'll need to install Zentyal on your new hardware, ensure you're updated to the same version as the backup and install all the same modules as the backup before restoring the backup.
You may be better off using something like Clonezilla weekly or even daily.

Even without the tls option on the command the Zentyal install uses tls.

That's really too bad, I mean even Google's servers willingly work with self signed certs, but Zentyal simply doesn't advertise the option for tls when another server or client connects.
Zentyal self signed certs work just fine for any client over imap, wtf?!?
What a shame.

Is there anyone here willing to help with this?
The Devs are nicely telling me to eff off.
I guess it's not a big deal to most people if server to server smtp is encrypted but in this day and age it should not only work, but should be relatively easy for an admin to administer.
So I must be missing something.

Anyone???
Can anyone at least tell me if they've tested their server themselves for tls over smtp?

For what it's worth, this install has an owncloud server running on it that survived the upgrade just fine.

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?
