Zentyal is an open-source email and groupware solution. It has its own Ubuntu-based distribution but also offers a repository for installation on top of the Ubuntu Server.<\/p>\n

The main goal of Zentyal is to offer a web-based interface to manage AD-DC<\/strong>, Windows File Sharing<\/strong>, Microsoft Exchange Server<\/strong>, full compatibility with Microsoft Outlook<\/strong> clients, and more.<\/p>\n

Check out NethServer, another open-source operating system that has similar features [Link<\/a>].<\/p>\n

It is recommended a minimum of 2GB<\/strong> of RAM.<\/p>\n

adduser admin\r\nusermod -aG sudo admin\r\nreboot<\/pre>\n
Go to the browser and access\u00a0https:\/\/10.0.0.1<\/span>:8443\/<\/strong>. Change the IP<\/span><\/strong> accordingly.<\/p>\n
\"\"<\/p>\n
