+=Purchase an ssl certificate=
+
+Generate a private key and certificate signing request.
+
+{{{
+openssl genrsa -out server.mayfirst.org.key 4096
+openssl req -new -key server.mayfirst.org.key -out server.mayfirst.org.csr
+}}}
+
+Change the domain@mayfirst.org email alias to point to your address.
+
+Go to Dotster (which is a thawte reseller) for server.mayfirst.org (from Dotster home page click Other Products -> ssl, get the 123 certificate)
+
+This will take a day or so to be generated.
+
+Once generated, login to Dotster using the mayfirst username. Click on My Services. You should see the new ssl Cert listed.
+
+Click Manage services.
+
+Copy the CRT into a file called:
+
+server.mayfirst.org.pem
+
+(replace server with the name of the server being setup)
+
+then add dh paramaters with:
+
+{{{
+openssl gendh >> server.mayfirst.org.pem
+}}}
+
+This file will be used by courier
+
+Now, put each one in a separate file called:
+
+server.mayfirst.org.key
+
+server.mayfirst.org.crt
+
+These will be used by apache
+
+=Use volatile for SA and clamav=
+
+
+ * Edit /etc/apt/sources.list. Add the following:
+{{{
+# clamav (volatile) and spam assassin (volatile-sloppy)
+deb http://debian.domainmail.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile-sloppy main
+deb http://debian.domainmail.org/debian-volatile etch/volatile main
+}}}
+ * Edit (or add) /etc/apt/preferences. Add the following
+{{{
+Package: spamassassin
+Pin: release a=etch-sloppy
+Pin-Priority: 991
+
+Package: spamc
+Pin: release a=etch-sloppy
+Pin-Priority: 991
+}}}
+
+
+=Install debian packages=

+}}}
+
+Now, install php-pear and php-log. You must install these before installing imp4 or else imp4 will try to pull in un-needed php4 packages.
+
+{{{
+sudo apt-get install php-pear php-log
+}}}
+
+And now, imp4:
+
+{{{
+sudo apt-get install imp4 turba2 ingo1
+}}}
+
+Add the pear file package so that Turba (address book) can import address books. First try apt - but don't do it if it still tries to pull in php4 (which it is trying as of April 11, 2007)
+
+{{{
+sudo apt-get install php-file
+}}}
+
+If it is trying to pull in php4, then install it via pear:
+
+{{{
+sudo pear install -o File
+}}}
+
+=Configure HE routes=
+
+In order to route traffic directly from computer to computer (across different subnetworks) we need to add the different routes
+
+Create a file called add-he-routes with the following contents:
+
+{{{
+#!/bin/bash
+# add routes for alternate blocks in rack
+#ip route add 209.51.172.0/28 dev eth0
+ip route add 209.51.169.80/28 dev eth0
+#ip route add 209.51.163.192/28 dev eth0
+ip route add 209.51.180.16/28 dev eth0
+}}}
+
+Comment out the line representing the network this server is on
+
+Save the file in /etc/network/if-up.d
+chmod it to 755
+
+And add a corresponding file:
+
+{{{
+
+#!/bin/bash
+# remove routes for alternate blocks in rack
+ip route del 209.51.172.0/28
+ip route del 209.51.169.80/28
+ip route del 209.51.163.192/28
+#ip route del 209.51.180.16/28

+
+Save the file in /etc/network/if-down.d
+chmod it to 755
+
