Configure hosts, hostname and DNS server, go to '[[DNS server]]'
Pre install additional packages:
Note1: the hostname needs a suffix (eg. 'zimbra7.loc') or it will not be accepted
Note2: in /etc/hosts the shortname is not optional, so it needs:
#ip            name          shortname
192.168.1.10  zimbra7.loc  zimbra7


#Install packages:
<syntaxhighlight lang=bash>
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential libperl5.10 sysstat sqlite3 bind9
sudo apt-get install linux-headers-$(uname -r) build-essential libperl5.10 sysstat sqlite3 bind9
</syntaxhighlight>
Configure hosts, hostname and DNS server, see '[[DNS server]]'
Note:
* the hostname needs a suffix (like '.loc' in 'zimbra7.loc') or it will not be accepted by the install script:
* in /etc/hosts the shortname is not optional, example:


Note: you need to configure MX record, I dont know how to do this
