Configure Grants not working

The Zimbra 6 rights/ACE/Grants thing is not very intuitive, but once you "get" it, it is relatively straightforward to do what you want to do -- albeit sometimes with a little experimentation. The best documentation we have seen to help you "get" how all this works is User:Vladim...

DNS setup and smtp greeting problem

[quote user="slacri"]hello. After requesting a record 'zimbra' to my maintainer, If I also decide to ask the ISP to record a different name for the IP I'm using for my mail server, what should it point to? the MX record or the FQDN? zimbra.mydomain.it (FQDN and smtp greeting) or mail.mydom...

[SOLVED] zimbra on vmware (6.0.6 rhel5_64)

6.0.6_GA_2324 is not 6.0.6.1.
6.0.6.1 reports itself as 2330 if you do a full upgrade and a little higher number if you apply the patch-only upgrade.
Hope that helps,

Mark

Multi location/sever install

[quote user="gnyce"]Mark, Perhaps I am being dense here, but why would I _not_ want to put the servers closer to the users? If I have multiple sites, it seems to make sense to limit WAN bandwidth (and increase webmail response time) and get users' mailboxes closer to where they are, esp. i...

Multi location/sever install

You can publish and lookup free/busy information in Zimbra, and Zimbra supports domain renaming, domain aliases and email forwarding and multiple non-Zimbra email accounts. So, it seems to me you could run with Zimbra now, share calendars and even expose emails if needed. Your users could have a mai...

Multi location/sever install

Not sure why you want to geographically disperse your Zimbra servers? If the reason you want Zimbra servers in each physical location is because of poor Internet connectivity at one or both of the sites, then you would be better off deploying Zimbra Desktop at the site with the poorer Internet conne...

Server Status

FWIW you are not alone in seeing that behaviour. There are several inter-related causes, depending on your OS, but generally involve a mix of syslog setup and script issues, wrong ownership on the /opt/zimbra/zmstat subdirectories, and a few other assorted items. If you are curious, search for thing...

DNS setup and smtp greeting problem

[quote user="uxbod"]Nope. Okay lets start again. Are you happy for your server to be named zimbra.mydomain.it ? If yes then are you happy to connect to it, and it be available externally, as zimbra.mydomain.it ? or would you prefer to connect as mail.mydomain.it ?[/QUOTE] I agree; that's e...

DNS setup and smtp greeting problem

It is of course up to you what you want to use for public DNS names, but if DNS is as you like it now, you can change the Postfix Greet String as follows: If you can wait for a complete Zimbra restart, all that needs to be done is run the following as the zimbra user: zmlocalconfig -e postfix_smtpd_...

Backup time

You may also edit the zimbra user's crontab directly; there are three lines in there which control the timing/frequency of Full and Incremental backups, and purging of older backups: To see what you have, as the zimbra user run: malbec:~ # su - zimbra zimbra@malbec:~> crontab -l | grep backup 0 1 * ...
