Goal

to install Kolab on a Fedora system, without installing OpenPKG.

Limitations:

Virtual Domains are not supported, you would need to patch Cyrus-Imapd (http://kolab.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs-kolab.cgi/server/imapd/kolab-ldap.patch).

Preparation: Configure Apt

Make sure, apt is installed on your system.

You can download it from [1] (http://dag.wieers.com/packages/apt/), there is also a good explanation (http://dag.wieers.com/home-made/apt/FAQ.php#B2).

changes to /etc/apt/sources.list.d/dag.list: add a DAG mirror close to you; (DAG mirrors (http://apt.sw.be/))

??? <your_closest_Fedora_mirror>: Fedora Mirrors (http://fedora.redhat.com/download/mirrors.html)

Download the GPG key/signature from dag.wieers.com RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt (http://dag.wieers.com/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt) and install it:

rpm --import RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt

run once:

apt-get update

Note about Minimal Kolab System

There are situations, when you don't want amavisd, clamav, postfix, or proftpd in your system. For that reason, my kolab rpms don't have dependencies on those packages.

kolab-horde is optional as well. Postgresql is only required for kolab-horde.

Install the RPMS

manual installation steps for Horde

# to initialise the db (will automatically run initdb)
/etc/init.d/postgresql start
# edit /var/lib/pgsql/data/postgresql.conf, add line:
# for postgresql 7.x: tcpip_socket = true 
# for postgresql 8.x: listen_addresses = '*' 
# edit /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
# local  all    all              trust  
# host    horde    horde   127.0.0.1   255.255.255.255 trust
/etc/init.d/postgresql restart

# setup database tables for horde:
cd /kolab/var/kolab/www/horde/scripts/sql
# edit create.pgsql.sql and change password of user horde (uncomment line as well)
su - postgres
cd /kolab/var/kolab/www/horde/scripts/sql
psql -d template1 -f create.pgsql.sql
psql -d horde -f horde_users.sql
psql -d horde -f horde_prefs.sql
psql -d horde -f horde_datatree.sql

Manually to change Conf Files

To be changed by the user:

You need to uncomment a line in /kolab/etc/kolab/templates/slapd.conf.template:

#include /kolab/var/kolab/www/horde/scripts/ldap/horde.schema

bootstrap kolab (will setup the ldap schema and create keys/certificates)

/kolab/etc/kolab/kolab_bootstrap -b

later, if you change templates, run /kolab/sbin/kolabconf

Available templates:

/kolab/etc/kolab/templates/saslauthd.conf.template => /etc/saslauthd.conf
/kolab/etc/kolab/templates/imapd.conf.template => /etc/imapd.conf
/kolab/etc/kolab/templates/ldap.conf.template => /etc/openldap/ldap.conf
/kolab/etc/kolab/templates/slapd.conf.template => /etc/openldap/slapd.conf

Start all server programs

/etc/init.d/httpd start
/etc/init.d/ldap start
/etc/init.d/cyrus-imapd  start
/etc/init.d/saslauthd start
/etc/init.d/postgresql start
