h1. Basic Install information

don't forget for new installations: as of 0.8.3 *iRedMail is still not SELinux friendly*, so please turn it off or to permissive

see also http://wiki.centos.org/HowTos/SELinux

h2. Installation

use the guide from http://www.iredmail.org/docs/install.iredmail.on.rhel.html

h3. Hickup 0.8.3

If there is yum-priorities installed and a priority set for CentOS-repo, then the iRedMail.repo is automatically getting a lower priority. 

2 Ways to resolve this:

* yum erase yum-priorities

* set a lower value to priority in iRedMail.repo than in CentOS-repo (e.g. 5 and 10)

h2. Post-Installation

h3. SeLinux

as of version 0.8.3 iRedMail disables SeLinux. I use SeLinux at least @permissive@, just

<pre><code class="bash">

vim /etc/selinux/config

</code></pre>

<pre>

# This file controls the state of SELinux on the system.

# SELINUX= can take one of these three values:

#     enforcing - SELinux security policy is enforced.

#     permissive - SELinux prints warnings instead of enforcing.

#     disabled - No SELinux policy is loaded.

#SELINUX=enforcing

SELINUX=permissive

# SELINUXTYPE= can take one of these two values:

#     targeted - Targeted processes are protected,

#     mls - Multi Level Security protection.

SELINUXTYPE=targeted 

</pre>

h3. Save config and iRedMail.tips

Don't forget to save @config@ and @iRedMail.tips@

<pre><code class="bash">

cp ~/iRedMail-0.8.3/config ~/config

cp ~/iRedMail-0.8.3/iRedMail.tips ~/iRedMail.tips

</code></pre>

h3. Reboot

<pre><code class="bash">

reboot

</code></pre>
