Hey All, I read on the list here not to long ago a work around for the following error on CentOS for installing the scalix mail server... Error: unsupported OS release: CentOS release 4.2 (Final) on x86_64 Someone posted a fix where you could edit a file changing the name of the OS or something to fix this. Anyone remember which file it was I could edit and what I needed to edit it too in order to make this install work? Any info would be great... Thanks!

Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant) Backup /etc/redhat-release... cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.`date -I` Then edit it and add the string above, install your package and then switch back. Will.

There was only one dependency I missed in the Centos install and the Scalix installer took care of it. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

>Sweet. I downloaded the new v10 so I am looking forward to trying it out. I >noticed one of the requirements was sendmail. Does anyone know if postfix is >fine instead of sendmail? I prefer to run postfix rather than sendmail..Scalix is based on the HP Openmail system. It's pretty much a complete replacement of the MTA. No postfix. I'm installing it for a small business. They use lookout for the client. This thing rocks. Shared calendar, public folders. All this stuff just works. I was able to integrate spamassassin and clamav with it also. The webmail access is really good too. They use tomcat5 for all the web stuff. All the administration is done via the java web interface. There is command line stuff I'm starting to scratch the surface on. I've installed community edition 9.4.2 and 10 on centos4. Good luck. Cheers, Tim
