SOGo is an open-source groupware server that can be used to manage emails, contacts, calendars, and tasks. In this tutorial, we will explain how to install SOGo on Void Linux.
Before proceeding, update the system by running the following command:
sudo xbps-install -Syu
Next, we need to install some dependencies required by SOGo. Run the following command to install them:
sudo xbps-install -S gnustep-make gnustep-base-devel cc net-snmp-devel cyrus-sasl-devel libmemcached-devel libxslt-devel
We can download the latest SOGo package from their official website. Once downloaded, we can install it using the following command:
sudo xbps-install path/to/sogo-x.x.x.x-Void-x86_64.txz
After installation, we need to configure SOGo by editing the configuration file /etc/sogo/sogo.conf. You can use your favorite text editor to modify this file.
sudo nano /etc/sogo/sogo.conf
You can modify the default configuration according to your needs.
To start and enable the SOGo service, run the following commands:
sudo ln -s /etc/sv/sogo /var/service
sudo sv start sogo
sudo sv enable sogo
After successfully starting the SOGo service, you can access its web interface by opening your web browser and type the following URL:
https://localhost/SOGo/
You will be prompted to enter your username and password. By default, SOGo uses the OpenLDAP server to authenticate users. You can configure your users in the /etc/openldap/slapd.conf file.
That's it! You have successfully installed and configured SOGo on Void Linux. You can now use it to manage your emails, contacts, calendars, and tasks.
If you want to self-host in an easy, hands free way, need an external IP address, or simply want your data in your own hands, give IPv6.rs a try!
Alternatively, for the best virtual desktop, try Shells!
