I was looking through some tutorials on how to install Zimbra ZCS on Ubuntu.

Mainly I kept coming across this one.

I had two question related to the installation,

  1. Zimbra only has an "Official Version" for Ubuntu 10.04 LTS. Can I load it on Ubuntu 11.04?

  2. In the tutorial the writer talks about setting your internal DNS server with an MX record for zimbra. If I am only going use Zimbra for my external domain, do I need the internal DNS records?

Edit

I need to learn to read more. The DNS settings are explained in the tutorial.

./install.sh --platform-override is the command you're looking for to install on unsupported platforms.

Ah very nice. But is it stable? Because I could just as easily download the Ubuntu LTS. – Solignis May 29 '11 at 4:15
Heh, after you've got it up, you're on your own. I can't speak to that, I've run it on 8.04 and 10.04, both very stable. – Nirac May 29 '11 at 4:20

Ah I see, well I guess I need to get the LTS version, I am not taking any chances. Thanks – Solignis May 29 '11 at 4:23

Did you get it up & running using the override ? For me, whatever I tried resulted in error dumps during the install.sh.

Actually I ended up using a Zimbra supported OS, in my case Ubuntu 10.04 server amd64 edition. It has been working great ever since. Eventually I will upgrade to Ubuntu 12.04 server amd64 edition, but I have to wait for it to be released and Zimbra to support it. – Solignis Feb 17 at 20:02
