No, it actually is mostly CentOS. Same packages. ClearOS used CentOS5 too, and only did their own rebuild after getting tired of waiting for 6. SME has a somewhat different installer that can install on a single disk as a 'broken' raid1, letting you add a mirror later, which is a nice touch, but the kernel and supporting code is the same once it is running. They both are managed in a very different way (through a web interface) than a stock system, but that's the point. If you want to do what they are set up to do, they make it much easier to get the same reliable code working. On the other hand, if you want something different, you end up having to do even more work to customize them. the webmail is a specific scenario, maybe a variant spin of CentOS could be the result of a SIG. I thought when the topic of SIGs for CentOS 7 first came up there was some input from the SME and ClearOS groups. Not sure if SME would be quite the same without their custom installer, but I think ClearOS is already just extra RPMs on top of a stock system. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Re: [CentOS] has anybody gotten horde working?
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 We've been using Horde on CentOS for years, and I'm just about to deploy a new server into production running the latest Horde release on CentOS 6.5. I see later in the thread that you're trying to use the EPEL packages, which are based on the Horde 3 framework. The current stable framework is Horde 5, which is significantly advanced from the Horde 3 framework. I'm deploying Groupware Webmail Edition 5.1.4, which includes turba, trean, kronolith, gollem, ingo, imp, mnemo and nag, plus I've installed passwd separately. There's no doubt that Horde is a complex framework which is designed to work with a wide variety of backend services. It can be tricky to set up due to the level of complexity involved, but it works beautifully once everything is set up properly. I'm using it for a number of virtual domains on one server, with Sendmail, Cyrus IMAPD (including Sieve for filtering) and PostgreSQL with LDAP authentication.

I see two types of user - those who just want it to work out of the box with a Windows-like point and click interface to configure things without really having any clue what is happening under the bonnet, and those who want to assemble a system from the component parts and have a fuller understanding of how their system works.

Personally I would rather learn how to do something myself rather than have it pre-configured in such a way as someone else deems appropriate. That way when it breaks I have a clue how to fix it. So for me, a SIG needs to be little more than a set of tried and tested documentation I can follow together with a few extra packages in /CentOS/SIG/MailServerExtras that are missing from Core (which already exist in Repoforge and EPEL anyway).

There's also a big middle ground where you want to set up a system for someone else to manage and not have them call you everything they need a small change. Like a remote office where you want the office manager to be able to manage users/groups and maybe even give a new printer a name to match the label they stuck on it - and you wouldn't trust them to be root at a command line. Or a friend who wants a home file server with the potential for adding other services.

Things like that are fine for pros. How much time should a non-technical person allow, starting from scratch and nothing but instructions they haven't read yet, before they would have a safe, working, email server? And really, why should they care about the underlying technology? Standard protocols are standard protocols. Personally I would rather learn how to do something myself rather than have it pre-configured in such a way as someone else deems appropriate. That way when it breaks I have a clue how to fix it. So for me, a SIG needs to be little more than a set of tried and tested documentation Yes, that is exactly the point of SME/ClearOS. First, they don't break much because their combinations of packages are well tested together, and second, if they do break, the authors and large base of users running the same thing are going to collaborate on the fix. If you assemble a bunch of pieces yourself out of the bare CentOS tools you are on your own. Again, that's fine for pros - and anyone getting paid to repeat work that has been done over and over again (sometimes right, sometimes badly...). I don't want/need a pre-configued installable ISO image or whatever that has already made lots of predetermined choices for me. No one is forcing you to use a known working configuration if you really want the toolbox. But be realistic about how much time it has cost you. The great thing about software is how re-usable it is - and except for users/groups and ip addresses, that pretty much applies to configurations too. So a configuration that provides a good service in one place can do the same in a lot of places without wasting a lot of time to reproduce it. -- Les Mikesell lesmikes...@gmail.com ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

Often they are broken and, if there is an option to install stable versions when newer, broken ones are available, I haven't found it. ___ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos

It sorta kinda looks like session handling is entirely broken. kronolith will let me in, but not for long. Then I get invalid token and am bounced back to the home screen. imp won't let me in at all. This behavior is completely broken: I get a log in screen and a message in /var/log/messages about not being authorized for IMP (which is apparently right up there in the list of useless, meaningless error messages). Looking around on the web, I see a google thread about somebody saying kronolith shouldn't reset session data, and Jan Schneider, the horde developer, I think, insisting that it must. He seems to have his own idea about how things should work--and I'm beginning to wonder if it actually does. Has anybody gotten this working? By the way, this is CentOS 6.5. If you are starting from scratch building a mail server you might want to look at SME server or ClearOS where webmail works out of the box. It would be my personal preference that we help people run things on CentOS rather than always recommending another distribution. Instead of us always saying .. webmail does not work on CentOS .. why doesn't someone instead create a SIG that makes webmail work on CentOS. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with ClearOS ... I wouldn't know, I have never used it. However, this is a CentOS mailing list, not a ClearOS one, so I would appreciate it if we at least answer the questions asked concerning setup first before recommending another OS. I mean, I could also say ... Use FreeBSD or Microsoft Exchange or Something on Mac or whatever. Lets make CentOS better as the default when we can. If people really, really want to recommend something else then that is of course fine ... it is a community list after all.

SME isn't exactly an 'other' distribution, and ClearOS wouldn't be if CentOS6 had had a timely release. They are the same code underneath, just already configured to work as installed and with a few additions. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with ClearOS ...

If CentOS shipped a distribution that was a decent mail server as installed then I'd certainly recommend that. But it's a toolbox with lots of assembly required. The dozen or so people who know how to build their own mail server from scratch probably won't ask my advice. I mean, I could also say ... Use FreeBSD or Microsoft Exchange or Something on Mac or whatever. But those things aren't running the same kernel and packages as CentOS, so it would make less sense to mention them here.

The SIG approach will probably work - eventually.

Having absolutely no knowledge of Linux and with some unix-type experience from the 1970's, I installed Centos 5.3, did a yum install exim and with virtually no configuration Exim just worked surprisingly well. It fulfilled all my basic mail server (MTA) requirements. Later I added customisation. I was immensely happy I had returned to 'proper computing' and wished I had migrated many years earlier from the misery of Micro$oft. My good experience is, I believe, very likely to be shared by many others around the world. -- Paul. England, EU. Our systems are exclusively Centos.
