[Kolab-devel] Kolab Server 2.1 Beta 2 released

[Bernhard Herzog]

Hello,

after more than four months, Kolab Server 2.1 Beta 2 is finally ready.  I've 
just uploaded the packages, so the mirrors should have the files shortly.
The files are linked in the server/beta/kolab-server-2.1-beta-2 directory.

The release-notes are attached.

Please read them and the 1st.README file carefully when upgrading because of a 
change in the default imap configuration that affects upgrades from older 
versions.

Regards, 

  Bernhard Herzog

Release notes Kolab2 Server
(Version 20060620, Kolab Server 2.1 beta 2)

This is a development snapshot of the kolab server leading up to a 2.1
release.  For upgrading and installation instructions, please refer to
the 1st.README file in the source directory.

At this point an upgrade from 2.0 is not recommended.  Instructions for
the upgrade from 2.0 are in 1st.README, but they're not very well tested
yet.


Differences between Kolab 2.0.x and 2.1:

    - Simple multi-domain support

      The Kolab server can now accept mail for multiple email domains.
      There is also a new class of maintainers which are only allowed to
      manage settings for a subset of the mail domains of the kolab
      server.


Known problems:

    - Under some circumstance the Kolab server may not update create
      users or update the configuration after changes have been made in
      the web interface.  This happens most often immediately after the
      bootstrap.  In that case restart the kolabd:

          /kolab/bin/openpkg rc kolabd restart

      See Issue1068 (Mailboxes are not created until kolabd restart) and
      Issue1098 (Changes in the service tab are not accepted after
      bootstrap) for details.

    - If modifying or deleting of address book entries doesn't work,
      restarting openldap can help, see Issue854 for details.
      Deleting address book entries doesn't automatically remove them
      from distribution lists like it is done for users, see Issue848
      for details.
