ZIMBRA MAIL SERVER CONFIGURATION-:
DNS server -: Ipaddress – 192.168.44.136
Hostname – mail.mydomain.com
Before configuring zimbra mail server. We need to setup dns server for mailserver. Before going to setup the dns we need to set the hostname. Check the hostname in /etc/hosts, /etc/sysconfig/network and /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0. Check the /etc/reslov.conf file and mention the dns server ipaddress.
[root@mail ~]# cat /etc/hosts
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.44.136 mail.mydomain.com mail
[root@mail ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network
NETWORKING=yes
NETWORKING_IPV6=no
HOSTNAME=mail.mydomain.com
[root@mail ~]# cat /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# Advanced Micro Devices [AMD] 79c970 [PCnet32 LANCE]
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=dhcp
HWADDR=00:0C:29:48:42:45
ONBOOT=yes
HOSTNAME=mail.mydomain.com
[root@mail ~]# cat /etc/resolv.conf
; generated by /sbin/dhclient-script
search localdomain
nameserver 192.168.44.136
Now setup the dns server.
DNS Configuration -:
Check whether bind package is installed or not. If so it should be like below.
[root@mail ~]# rpm -qa | grep bind
bind-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
bind-libbind-devel-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
ypbind-1.19-12.el5
bind-chroot-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
bind-sdb-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
bind-devel-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
bind-libs-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
bind-utils-9.3.6-4.P1.el5
Otherwise install the bind package through yum . After the installation, setup the named.conf file.
[root@mail ~]# cat /var/named/chroot/etc/named.conf
options {
directory "/var/named/";
dump-file "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";
statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";
forwarders { 8.8.8.8; };
};
include "/etc/rndc.key";
zone "mydomain.com" {
type master;
file "mydomain.com";
};
After configuring the named.conf file setup the forward and reverse lookup zone in mydomain.com file
[root@mail ~]# cat /var/named/chroot/var/named/mydomain.com
$TTL 86400
@ IN SOA mydomain.com. hostmaster.mydomain.com. (

IN MX 10 mail.mydomain.com.
mail IN A 192.168.44.136
ns IN A 192.168.44.136
check whether the dns is resolving or not by nslookup or dig command
[root@mail ~]# nslookup mail.mydomain.com
