Linux Configuration

If you're like us, you used several of the excellent How-To's available on the Internet to install, configure and maintain your Linux systems and Open Source solutions. But also like us, you probably ran into situations where you needed to deviate from the How-To in order to meet a requirement was specific to your environment.

Our goal here is to augment what's already available with information on how to tackle some specific problems -- like migrating from Microsoft Exchange to qmail, Courier-IMAP, OpenLDAP and Calcium. To that end, we plan to provide as much information as possible on how we installed and configured the software components listed below, how these solutions work for us and how we'd go about improving things.

Please check back frequently for updates as we work hard to provide alternative answers to common problems on the following topics:
