https://www.howtoforge.com/tutorial/ubuntu-14-04-zimbra-server/

My zimbra Server profile used in this tutorial:

Domain : sendaljepit.local
IP     : 192.168.1.101
Mail   : mail.sendaljepit.local

What we will do in this tutorial:

Installation of prerequisites

Step 1 - connect to your server, get root privileges and install this package.
apt-get install libgmp10 libperl5.18 unzip pax sysstat sqlite3 dnsmasq wget

Configure hostname and DNS Server

In this tutorial will use the 'dnsmasq' resolving nameserver to speedup DNS lookups in Zimbra. Dnsmask has been installed as prerequisite in the first chapter, so we just have to configure it now:
Step 1 - Edit hostname and hosts
vim /etc/hostname
change your hostname with this 'mail.sendaljepit.local'.
Setting hostname
vim /etc/hosts
add this line:
192.168.1.101   mail.sendaljepit.local  mail
Setting host
Step 2 - Edit dnsmasq configuration
vim /etc/dnsmasq.conf
server=192.168.1.101
domain=sendaljepit.local
mx-host=sendaljepit.local, mail.sendaljepit.local, 5
mx-host=mail.sendaljepit.local, mail.sendaljepit.local, 5
listen-address=127.0.0.1
Step 3 - Reboot
sudo reboot

Installing Zimbra

Step 1 - Download Zimbra and extract it
wget https://files.zimbra.com/downloads/8.6.0_GA/zcs-8.6.0_GA_1153.UBUNTU14_64.20141215151116.tgz
tar -xvf zcs-8.6.0_GA_1153.UBUNTU14_64.20141215151116.tgz
cd zcs*
Step 2 - Run the Installer
./install.sh
At this step, zimbra will check the required packages and will ask you to agree to their installation.
Agreement Zimbra





and then choose the zimbra package :
Choose Zimbra Installation
here doesn`t need zimbra-dnscache, because in this tutorial use dnsmasq.
You need to wait, because this installation takes some time.
next step is configure "zimbra-store" for getting admin password. See the picture:
Configure Admin Pasword
Choose number "4" and enter. and then type your password:
Changing Password
Apply all Configuration:
Apply all configuration

and wait for Zimbra configuration finished.

Testing Zimbra

to test your zimbra server is running, you can type a command :
su - zimbra
zmcontrol status
try to access zimbra from web browser.  https://192.168.1.101/
Access Zimbra
or try admin page " https://192.168.1.101:7071/ ".

Conclusion

Zimbra is an Open Source mail server application which provides many features and is easy to use for admin and client. Zimbra requires a lot of server ressources, so dont use it on servers that do not match the base requirements outlines in the first chapter.

NFS mount add in fstab _netdev instead of default | firewall-cmd --list-all

By OK -
Redhat recommends us to add  _netdev  option for NFS file system in /etc/fstab. So that they can be mounted after starting the networking service. Alternative ways to refer to partitions: Label : LABEL=label Network ID Samba : //server/share NFS : server:/share SSHFS : sshfs#user@server:/share Device : /dev/sdxy (not recommended) Example #1 //192.168.1.134/share_name /mnt/share_name cifs username=server_user,password=server_password,_netdev 0 0 ^ Path to your share ^ Mountpoint ^ Username ^ Password ^ See note A Note A: The  _netdev  options makes sure the mount is only attempted AFTER a network connection has been established. Example #2 10.10.10.1:/vol1/fs1 /data nfs defaults,_netdev 0 0 ============================ [root@localhost ~]# firewall-cmd --list-all public   target: default   icmp-block-inversion: no   interfaces:   sources:   services: dhcpv6-client high-availabi...
