Topic: SME 6.0.1-01 Custom ISO

Brian thanks for the reply.  I have rebuilt my SME server using the custom ISO 6.0.1-01 twice.  Both times I have completely reinstalled SME (reformatted the whole drive) and neither times have the graphs worked.  Maybe for some reason my rrd files are getting messed up.  I will try to delete these files and see what happens.

Thanks again for your response!!

does this custom iso have e-smith-LPRng-1.11.0-06ewf or the older version from 6.0?

The reason I ask is I have clients with printing problems and I just realised it could be caused by an unpatched lprng version. v. 6.01-01 fixed this problem but does your's include this fix?

Is there any work still being done on the Custom iso?  I'm just about to do my first install, and I'd like to know if anything new is upcoming... just in case I want to hold off a little longer.

Good Afternoon,

Would anyone be opposed to installing the public_html contrib so when users are created they have a place to put up a webpage?

Hi there...

Based on the information that I have read from page 1 to 10, and not yet installed the Custom SME Server, I would like take add a few ideas...

I hope that this thread will still get attention...!

To the amazing people who venture where very few of us are able to venture to......

Notes:
1.   Decide on what type of Server Environments you want to distribute to e.g.: Private (Home User) or Corporate (decent size LANS).

2.   Corporate Market:
     Identify what their "needs are" e.g:
     * E-Mail
     * Internet
     * Security
     * Anti-Virus
     * Backups
     * Home Directories
     * Corporate Intranet
     * Server Management Tools (Internet Usage,
         - E-Mail statistics,
         - System Resource Utilization,
         - Backup Reports,
         - Virus Reports,
         
     * Central Server Management Tools,
     * Central User Management Tools,
     * Shared Corporate Calendar,
     * Workgroups,
     * Remote Connectivity for Support,
     * Mobile Corporate E-Mail Retrieval,
     * SMS Gateway Integration,
     * Remote Connectivity for Employees working from
       home,
     * etc,

You realy do not want to put a MP3 Jukebox on a Server at a Corporate Client. I personally thank that the purpose of the SME Server from Mitel was to service the Corporate industry and not the Home User.

I work in the Consulting and Technical (pre-sales, sales and post-sales). Linux, through the efforts of dedicated and passionate people, will be THE best seller for Generic, Specific All purpose Network Operating System of the new millinium....

I truly hope that the efforts of the people mentioned in this thread will continue their UNSELFISH efforts and help us dumb twits to achieve greater hights in our simplified passion for non-MS products and an exchange rate of 7 to 1 (Rands to $).

I am thankfull to you all....Bless You

hummm i have been trying damn hard to get hold of this again (new server, lost cd etc etc) and have had a fair bit of trouble doing so.

So what i am doing is i am going to get all the files i can from the mirrors that currently work and as i own a hosting company i can abuse the servers and will setup an account on there (it will be mirrored accross 2 seperate 100Mbit servers) so that the files are always there - and fast.

If ya wanna catch me sumwhere, have contribs u have made and want hosted drop me an email @ alex@impulsivewh.co.uk with the subject "SME ISO".

All in the name of OSS!

[edit]
btw if any 1 knows a fastish mirror that exists atm that i can mirror can they email me please

[alexsmithmcp]

ok, the address is http://sme.impulsivewh.co.uk/ i have rsync'd over the whole of the offical site and that will rsync everynight to keep upto date. I do belive that the Custom ISO has been uploaded there too (Many thanks to Del for that).

If theres anything else for SME that you would like me to mirror just ask

Well after a slight mishap I now have my site back up and operational. I have reinstated the links that I know of for the Custom ISO in the downloads area.

If you know of others please let me know and I will add them.

The link to my site is http://keane.co.nz

Thanks to everyone who is supporting this ISO through hosting it.

I'm sorry to bring an old thread up so much.

But I'm wanting to test the latest build out at the moment.

Now the ISO I  have right here, is smeserver6.0.1-01-20040316.iso (334.4MB)

Now looking at this website, on the very last post.....

The ISO name is smeserver-6[1].01-01custom.iso (382MB)

I'm just trying to figure out which is the latest and best one to grab.....

Cheers.

Sorry again for bring it up Thanks.

[ajkeane]

It really depends on what you are wanting at the end of the day.

There is not that must different between the two ISO's.

The main thing is that the custom ISO has a few of the more used contribs already rolled into it so that you do not have to install then at a later time.

Tony

[finchwizard]

I want all the latest packages and custom things installed already.

I've got the 334MB one, I'm just wondering how it differs to the one on the website.

I'm assuming they are both the same thing, just ones more up to date than the other, so which is more up to date?

Cheers
