<p>Good Day Zain!</p>
<p></p>
<p>I just (first time) installed kolab in an experimental environment. So my knowledge is still quite fresh, hope it will help you.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Note: I use debian, but I suppose it will work the same way on fedora.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Apparently I started of reading the docs like:</p>
<p>http://wiki.kolab.org/index.php/Kolab2_Installation_-_Binary</p>
<p></p>
<p>Then I installed the openpkg environment (as root do)</p>
<p></p>
<p># create a directory to install openpkg</p>
<p>mkdir /openpkg</p>
<p>mkdir /tmp/openpkg</p>
<p></p>
<p># download the 20MB - here's the latest release of openpkg</p>
<p>cd /tmp/openpkg</p>
<p>wget -c ftp://ftp.openpkg.org/release/2.3/SRC/openpkg-2.3.0-2.3.0.src.sh</p>
<p></p>
<p># and bootstrap (compiling - this will take some time...)</p>
<p>sh openpkg-2.3.0-2.3.0.src.sh --prefix=/openpkg</p>
<p></p>
<p>if bootstraping complets successfully, it will tell you how to proceed with the last step to complete openpkg installation :)</p>
<p></p>
<p>will look a little like </p>
<p>+-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+</p>
<p>| You have successfully built the OpenPKG Package from scratch |</p>
<p>| for prefix /test on target platform ix86-debian3.1. The input |</p>
<p>| was the OpenPKG Source Bootstrap Package in file: |</p>
<p>and so on...</p>
<p></p>
<p>now for the kolab installation</p>
<p>mkdir /tmp/kolab</p>
<p></p>
<p># download the ~150M - here's the latest release of kolab</p>
<p>cd /tmp/kolab</p>
<p>wget -r http://www.fruitsalad.org/kolab/server/beta/kolab-server-2.0-rc-1/ix86-debian3.0/</p>
<p></p>
<p># now that all files are downloaded, let's install</p>
<p>cd /tmp/kolab/www.fruitsalad.org/kolab/server/beta/kolab-server-2.0-rc-1/ix86-debian3.0/</p>
<p>chmod u+x obmtool</p>
<p>./obmtool kolab</p>
<p></p>
<p># remember, no servers shall be running</p>
<p># on ports 21,25,80,143,389,443,465,636,993,995,2000</p>
<p># maybe check with nmap if you're unsure...</p>
<p>nmap localhost</p>
<p></p>
<p># here we go, kolab install</p>
<p>/kolab/etc/kolab/kolab_bootstrap -b</p>
<p></p>
<p># note: this machine should have a fix IP address and a coresponding dns name like</p>
<p># kolab.biddulphs.co.za</p>
<p></p>
<p># and now start kolab</p>
<p>/kolab/bin/openpkg rc all start</p>
<p></p>
<p>so long!</p>
