Just a heads up - Last weekend I tried to get Cyrus going for an article I was writing. Although I could build/install it fine, I never could get the darn daemons to work. Whenever you tried to access the IMAP or pop3 port, the daemon would die. Same with the test script the guide suggests running. I ran strace on it, and it died right after looking at /dev/log. Did several google searches and variations on setup with and without TCP wrappers, but finally gave up and used the UW server. I didn't use phpGroupware, although I have, only SquirrelMail (as that was the crux of the article - IMAP email) To implement security, I setup mod_ssl with Apache to wrap the whole session. This was on a Mandrake machine, YMMV on SuSE. Stew Benedict On Wed, 25 Apr 2001, Sean Akers wrote:
I am trying to get some kind of open source groupware system running on my SuSE 7.0 server. I would really like to have a Note/Domin style server without the Notes/Domino bit and preferable with an HTTP interface which can be used by both Linux and Windows boxes. I need it to have mail, calendar, address book, notes, forums etc.
Having looked into this a bit, it looks as though a PHPGroupware/MySQL/Cyrus IMAP setup is the best bet (unless someone else has any better ideas).
To my joy, SuSE don't package Cyrus or PHPGroupware with their distribution (Mandrake do so why don't you) so it's download and compile time.
I've downloaded the source for Cyrus IMAP and tried to build it. It turns out I also need libdes.so and Berley DB3 to go with it. It's all getting to be a bit of a pain, First of all trying to find out where to download these items and also getting them to build as well.
Has anyone struggled with this themselves and has any pointers/URLS or even a nice RPM ?
Cheers,
Sean.
