Cyrus IMAPd RPM
|
||||
---------------
|
||||
|
||||
This is a _very_ 'quick and dirty' install howto.
|
||||
|
||||
The following steps should lead you to a running Cyrus IMAP server:
|
||||
|
||||
1) Install on a distribution which is supported by this RPM. Don't install
|
||||
on a dirty system, where you have previously installed from source.
|
||||
2) Don't install if you have a previous Cyrus IMAPd installation <=2.1.x on
|
||||
your box. Upgrading any Invoca rpm based installation should be fine.
|
||||
3) Make sure you understand that this RPM installs in FHS compliant
|
||||
directories, like /var/lib/imap and /var/spool/imap
|
||||
4) Make sure cyrus-sasl is installed.
|
||||
5) Make sure saslauthd is running. If not, edit /etc/sysconfig/saslauthd as
|
||||
needed and do 'chkconfig saslauthd on ; service saslauthd start'
|
||||
6) Install the cyrus-imapd RPMs.
|
||||
7) If it's your first install of Cyrus IMAPd, then set a password for the
|
||||
cyrus user in whatever database you are using to authenticate. When
|
||||
using a local account, this should be 'passwd cyrus'.
|
||||
8) Make sure your MTA delivers to Cyrus IMAPd, I recommend LMTP for this.
|
||||
9) Start Cyrus IMAPd with 'service cyrus-imapd start'
|
||||
10) Run cyradm and create a user. Usually it's something like this:
|
||||
'cyradm --user=cyrus --auth=login localhost'
|
||||
11) If you're using sendmail, be aware that cyrusv2.m4 included in standard
|
||||
sendmail distribution uses socket /var/imap/socket/lmtp while this rpm
|
||||
uses /var/lib/imap/socket/lmtp.
|
||||
12) Check your syslog configuration. This RPM uses the mail facility to log
|
||||
messages. On busy sites you may want to limit the mail facility to the
|
||||
info priority with something like 'mail.info /var/log/maillog' in
|
||||
/etc/syslog.conf.
|
||||
|
||||
Enjoy!
