Hi Dude, Zimbra is a popular open source mail collaboration suite. I’m going to install zimbra on Ubuntu 20.04. There is Preparation Before Install Zimbra, some setting that must be prepared first. Let’s get started.
Remote to Server via SSH
first, we have to do ssh to remote to the server.
ssh username@ip-address-server
If we set custom port, we have to set parameter -p
, like this.
ssh -p port_number username@ip-address-server
Disable Apparmor Service
Next is disable Apparmor service. Apparmor is like firewall to isolate service/package running in server.
root@mail:~# systemctl stop apparmor.service
root@mail:~# systemctl disable apparmor.service
Disable UFW
Next, disable ufw. Ufw is firewall that have chain input output like firewalld in Centos. In my opinion, firewall should be handle by router. So resource server can decrease.
root@mail:~# systemctl stop ufw.service
root@mail:~# systemctl disable ufw.service
Set Date and Time
Next, set date and time. So we can get exact date and time based on timezone.
timedatectl set-timezone Asia/Jakarta
timedacectl
Set Hostname
Next, set hostname. We can check full hostname fqdn with hostname -f
. If result show not yet FQDN hostname server, so we have to set it first.
hostname -f
hostnamectl set-hostname mail.habibza.in
After that, open /etc/hosts
.
127.0.0.1 localhost
10.12.12.128 mail.habibza.in mail
10.12.12.128
: is our server mail.
Set Local DNS
This in important part, before install zimbra. We use bind9 for set local DNS.
apt update
apt install bind9
open named configuration in /etc/bind/named.conf.options
vim /etc/bind/named.conf.options
options {
directory "/var/cache/bind";
recursion yes;
allow-query { 127.0.0.1; 10.0.0.0/8; };
allow-transfer { none; };
forwarders { 8.8.8.8; 1.1.1.1; };
listen-on port 53 { 127.0.0.1; 10.12.12.128; };
version "not current available";
querylog yes;
// If there is a firewall between you and nameservers you want
// to talk to, you may need to fix the firewall to allow multiple
// ports to talk. See http://www.kb.cert.org/vuls/id/800113
// If your ISP provided one or more IP addresses for stable
// nameservers, you probably want to use them as forwarders.
// Uncomment the following block, and insert the addresses replacing
// the all-0's placeholder.
// forwarders {
// 0.0.0.0;
// };
//=======================
// If BIND logs error messages about the root key being expired,
// you will need to update your keys. See https://www.isc.org/bind-keys
//=======================
dnssec-validation no;
listen-on-v6 { none; };
};
And then, make zone conf directory in /etc/bind/named.conf.local
.
vim /etc/bind/named.conf.local
// Consider adding the 1918 zones here, if they are not used in your
// organization
//include "/etc/bind/zones.rfc1918";
zone "habibza.in" {
type master;
file "/etc/bind/db.habibza.in";
};
Where /etc/bind/db.habibza.in
is file stored zones domain.
$TTL 604800
@ IN SOA ns1.habibza.in. root.habibza.in. (
2 ; Serial
604800 ; Refresh
86400 ; Retry
2419200 ; Expire
604800 ) ; Negative Cache TTL
;
@ IN NS ns1.habibza.in.
@ IN A 10.12.12.128
@ IN MX 0 mail.habibza.in.
mail IN A 10.12.12.128
ns1 IN A 10.12.12.10
smtp IN CNAME mail
After save. check configuration and restart service named.
named-checkconf
systemctl restart named.service
If if there is no error, test query server dns with dig
.
If refused, check in ps faxu. What anything else resolver is running. In my case, i am use ubuntu 20.04 that running systemd-resolved.service
. So i have to pointed server systemd-resolved.service
to bind.
root@mail:~# vim /etc/systemd/resolved.conf
[Resolve]
DNS=10.12.12.128
#FallbackDNS=
Domains=habibza.in
And then restart systemd-resolved.service
.
systemctl restart systemd-resolved.service
And tes dig again. Here is my process resolve with netstat port 53.
root@mail:~# netstat -tulpn | grep 53
tcp 0 0 127.0.0.53:53 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN 106169/systemd-reso

udp 0 0 127.0.0.1:53 0.0.0.0:* 856/named
Ok, after all finished, continued zimbra installation next post.
