Zimbra Specs?

[kmount]

Morning all,

 

Having a look at Zimbra today and just wondered whether people could share their zmibra server specs versus how many users etc so I could get an idea.

 

Thanks for your time.

 

Kim.

Wow, thanks Gents. - I'm looking forward to having a play with it having watched the videos it looks fantastic.

It installed (good start) and logs in fine etc with the html interface, but with ajax it freezes the browser and I can't seem to find anything useful on the net about how to look at it.

 

Tried IE6,7 & FF2.

 

Any ideas?

You aren't going through a proxy to reach it are you?

[kmount]

I hope not

 

It's installed on an internal server with the exception set to allow access to it which allows me to log in with standard OK. - With the Ajax one it says "101 items remaining" and just sits there....

 

I shall install a gui on the server and try it locally I think...

 

Thanks

We'll soon be installing it on a Dual Quad-Core Xeon with 8GB RAM and 73GB SAS drives at 15k RPM. Should be fast enough

 

Will be running Ubuntu 6.06.2, supporting total of about 900 users (~100 simultaneous).

Are you sure that is powerful enough

[kmount]

Faster than my _new_ DC.

What OS did you use out of interest? I see a few people are using different variations I just wonder which people have found to be the best.

The idea is that you use the distro that you are most comfortable with. In my test setup I was running it on Debian Etch and it seemed fine. If you have a number of Linux servers already, use the same distro as them because you WILL start to confuse yourself with the subtle differences.

Yeah, thats probably what I will do. I just wondered if some people had ran into complications with certain Distro's I would avoid them especially if its going to cause my a lot of head scratching in the long run.

 

Thanks

I had an ubuntu6 CD lying on the desk so used that, otherwise I'd have used gentoo and built from source.

eeek.

use whatever Zimbra support, you'll get better help in the forums if you need it.

There was a scare about Centos not being supported at the beginning of the year, but hte Zimbra team retracted the statement after the 'problem' was found.

I'm using Centos (32bit) and have not had problems.

[kmount]

Sorry, I'm a bit of a gentoo geek... something about working for my computing experience makes me take more care of it

[Geoff]

I've standardised our Linux boxes on Ubuntu LTS (currently 6.06). So that's what got used.

Seems the problem is to do with the Yahoo maps API. - Time to investigate further ...
