Install Zimbra Mail Server on Ubuntu 8.04

For me, Zimbra is a reliable mail server, complete and easy to configure. Here are the steps to install Zimbra Mail Server on Ubuntu 8.04.

Before you install do not forget to be prepared as follows :

Computer name (hostname) and here i use mailserver
Ip address the computer and here i use 211.172.16.33, netmask 255.255.255.252 and gateway 211.172.16.32

Domain Name and here i use udiniq.com
Nameserver (NS), nameserver is the place where to put the domain and because I put udiniq.com at ns1.udiniqgeeks.com then I use the nameserver ns1.udiniqgeeks.com with the ip address 210.172.210.100
Mail Domain (MX), a record that determines where an email will be sent. In this MX record, there are additional variables and priotity here I use mx mail.udiniq.com

Ok, after a dns problem is over, following the step-by-step to install zimbra mail server on ubuntu 8.04 ...

Previously we had to setup mail server ip address is 211.172.16.33, netmask 255.255.255.252, gateway 211.172.16.32 and also to setup nameserver ip address is 210.172.210.100 :

root@mailserver:~# vim /etc/network/interfaces

# This file describes the network interfaces available on your system
# and how to activate them. For more information, see interfaces(5).

# The loopback network interface
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# The primary network interface
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet static
        address 211.172.16.33
        netmask 255.255.255.252
        network 211.172.16.31
        broadcast 211.172.16.34
        gateway 211.172.16.32

root@mailserver:~# vim /etc/resolv.conf

search udiniq.com
nameserver 210.172.210.100

Make sure the hostname is written in a Mail Server Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN):

root@mailserver:~# vim /etc/hosts

127.0.0.1       localhost
211.172.16.33     mailserver.udiniq.com      mailserver

# The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1     localhost ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts

If all the preparations are ok, then the next step you need to remove Postfix installed by default when you install ubuntu 8.04, because of Zimbra Mail Server in an existing service, so it aims to avoid conflict with Postfix, Zimbra's own property, so zimbra installation running normally.
