<blockquote>
|
|
<p><strong>WARNING</strong>: iRedMail is designed to be deployed on a FRESH server system,
|
|
which means your server does <strong>NOT</strong> have mail related components installed,
|
|
e.g. MySQL, OpenLDAP, Postfix, Dovecot, Amavisd, etc. iRedMail will install
|
|
and configure them for you automatically. Otherwise it may override your
|
|
existing files/configurations althought it will backup files before modifing,
|
|
and it may be not working as expected.</p>
|
|
</blockquote>
|
|
<p>To install iRedMail on OpenBSD, you need:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>A FRESH, working OpenBSD system. Supported releases are listed on
|
|
<a href="../download.html">Download</a> page.</li>
|
|
<li>At least <code>1 GB</code> of memory is required for low traffic production server.
|
|
Spam/Virus scanning will take most system resource.</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>Required OpenBSD installation file sets are (replace <code>[XX]</code> by the real
|
|
OpenBSD release number):</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>base[XX].tgz</li>
|
|
<li>etc[XX].tgz</li>
|
|
<li>comp[XX].tgz</li>
|
|
<li>man[XX].tgz</li>
|
|
<li>xbase[XX].tgz</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p>Notes:</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>All binary packages will be installed with command <code>pkg_add -i</code>.</li>
|
|
<li>Apache chroot is disabled by default, required by iRedAdmin - the web-based
|
|
admin panel.</li>
|
|
<li>PF is enabled by default, with basic rules for ssh and mail services.</li>
|
|
<li>System built-in <a href="http://www.openbsd.org/cgi-bin/man.cgi/OpenBSD-current/man8/spamd.8"><code>spamd(8)</code></a> is enabled by default for greylisting,
|
|
whitelisting, blacklisting.</li>
|
|
<li>Sendmail is disabled by default, replaced by Postfix.</li>
|
|
</ul>

|
|
<h3 id="set-a-fully-qualified-domain-name-fqdn-hostname-on-your-server">Set a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) hostname on your server</h3>
|
|
<p>No matter your server is a testing machine or production server, it's strongly
|
|
recommended to set a fully qualified domain name (FQDN) hostname.</p>
|
|
<p>Enter command <code>hostname -f</code> to view the current hostname:</p>
|
|
<pre><code class="shell">$ hostname -f
|
|
mx.example.com
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>On OpenBSD, hostname is set in two files: <code>/etc/myname</code> and <code>/etc/hosts</code>.</p>
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>/etc/myname</code>: FQDN.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre><code>mx.example.com
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li><code>/etc/hosts</code>: static table lookup for hostnames. <strong>Warning</strong>: Please list the
|
|
FQDN hostname as first item.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre><code># Part of file: /etc/hosts
|
|
127.0.0.1 mx.example.com mx localhost localhost.localdomain
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Verify the FQDN hostname. If it wasn't changed after updating above two files,
|
|
please reboot server to make it work.</p>
|
|
<pre><code>$ hostname -f
|
|
mx.example.com
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<h3 id="choose-a-nearest-mirror-site-for-installing-binary-packages">Choose a nearest mirror site for installing binary packages</h3>
|
|
<p>iRedMail will install all required binary packages with command <code>pkg_add -i</code>,
|
|
it will check whether you have mirror site defined in <code>PKG_PATH</code> environment
|
|
variable, if defined, <code>pkg_add</code> will install packages from defined mirror site.</p>
|
|
<p>It's recommended to install packages from a mirror site, to reduce server
|
|
load on OpenBSD primary servers. Also, installing package from a nearest
|
|
mirror site will speed up package installation. You can find mirror list
|
|
near you on OpenBSD web site:
|
|
<a href="http://www.openbsd.org/ftp.html#http">Getting OpenBSD</a>.</p>
|
|
<p>Now login to the OpenBSD server as root user, set variable <code>PKG_PATH</code> in file
|
|
<code>/root/.profile</code> like below (use your nearest mirror site instead):</p>
|
|
<pre><code>export PKG_PATH="http://ftp.jaist.ac.jp/pub/OpenBSD/`uname -r`/packages/`machine -a`/"
|
|
</code></pre>
|
|
|
|
<p>Install Bash shell, it's required by iRedMail.</p>
|
|
<pre><code># . /root/.profile # <- This steps is required, used to set PKG_PATH without re-login.
|
|
# pkg_add bash
|
|
</code></pre>

<h3 id="download-the-latest-release-of-iredmail">Download the latest release of iRedMail</h3>

<ul>

<li>
|
|
<p>Visit <a href="../download.html">Download page</a> to get the
|
|
latest stable release of iRedMail.</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>Upload iRedMail to your mail server via ftp or scp or whatever method you
|
|
can use, login to the server to install iRedMail. We assume you uploaded
|
|
it to <code>/root/iRedMail-x.y.z.tar.bz2</code> (replace x.y.z by the real version number).</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>
|
|
<p>Uncompress iRedMail tarball:</p>
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<pre><code># cd /root/
|
|
# tar xjf iRedMail-x.y.z.tar.bz2

<p>For Chinese users: Our domain name "iredmail.org" is blocked in China mainland since Jun 04, 2011, please replace all 'iredmail.org' by its IP address "106.187.51.47" (without quotes) in /root/iRedMail-x.y.z/pkgs/get_all.sh BEFORE executing "iRedMail.sh".

|
<p><strong>IMPORTANT NOTE</strong>: There's no big difference between available backends, so

it's strongly recommended to choose the one you're familiar with for easier
