nmap 4.53 backport for Debian Etch and Ubuntu Gutsy

Nmap (”Network Mapper”) is a free and open source (license) utility for network exploration or security auditing. Many systems and network administrators also find it useful for tasks such as network inventory, managing service upgrade schedules, and monitoring host or service uptime. Nmap uses raw IP packets in novel ways to determine what hosts are available on the network, what services (application name and version) those hosts are offering, what operating systems (and OS versions) they are running, what type of packet filters/firewalls are in use, and dozens of other characteristics. It was designed to rapidly scan large networks, but works fine against single hosts. Nmap runs on all major computer operating systems, and both console and graphical versions are available.

Installare Zimbra con Debian Etch

Zimbra è un server e client open source per messaging and collaboration - email, group calendaring, contacts, and web document management.

La versione open è liberamente scaricabile in formato binario per Mac OS X ed alcune ditribuzioni Linux;
Ubuntu, RedHat, Fedora, Suse, Mandrivia e Debian

In particolare la versione per Debian è per la release “Sarge” (3.1)

Vediamo qui un semplice workaround per installarlo sulla release stable 4.0, Etch

Scarichiamo il tar.gz contentente i binari ed i file di installazione da sourceforge e decomprimiamoli

Verrà creata una nuoca directory chiamata zcs

Per prima cosa assicuratevi che la vostra macchina abbia un nome FQDN e che questo sia risolvibile corettamente, pena una serie di errori già in fase di installazione.

Il vostro file /etc/hosts deve essere qualcosa di simile a questo

127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost

your.ip.address FQDN yourhostname

Ora un paio di trucchi per ingannare l’installer di zimbra

Modifichiamo il file /etc/debian_version

  • cambiamo 4.0 in 3.1

Modifichiamo il file $yourpath/zcs/util/utilfunc.sh

  • alla riga 1342 modifichiamo if [ $PLATFORM = "UBUNTU6"]; then con
    if [ $PLATFORM = "UBUNTU6" -o $PLATFORM = "DEBIAN3.1" ]; then

Ora installiamo i pacchetti necessari

apt-get install sudo libidn11 curl fetchmail libgmp3c2 libxml2 libstdc++6 openssl

A questo punto lanciamo l’installar da dentro la directory zcs

./install.sh

Curiosamente scambia l’hostname con il domainname.

Rispondiamo ‘Yes’ alla domanda “Change domain name”, settiamolo al domainname corretto “domain.com” invece a quello da lui proposto nella forma “host.domain.com”
Se non avete ancora settato un record MX (lo potete fare dopo senza problemi) , ignorate il messaggio

DNS ERROR - none of the MX records for ijichi.org
resolve to this host
It is suggested that the MX record resolve to this host
Re-Enter domain name? [Yes]

NB Rispondiamo “No” e proseguiamo
Nel Install Menu:
Scegliamo 5 per settare la time zone (quella italiana è la numero 33) poi 7 per zimbra-store, 4 per Admin Password, inseririamo la password per l’utente admin , ‘r’ per tornare al menù precedente ed infine ‘a’ to applicare le modifiche.

Scegliamo il defautl con Enter alle ultime due domande:

Save configuration data to a file? [Yes]
Save config in file: [/opt/zimbra/config.15938]

Ed in ultimo “yes” per salvare le impostazioni

The system will be modified - continue? [No] yes

Ultima cosa riportiamo /etc/debian_version  come era in origine.

A questo punto se non abbiamo avuto errori a video possiamo loggarci all’interfaccia di amministrazione all’indirizzo

https://$host:7071/zimbraAdmin
