Install Anti-Spam and DLP for any server in 30 minutes

Description

• Designed for Linux and Windows email system administrators, Scrollout F1 is a free anti-spam and anti-virus email firewall (gateway) for multiple domains and email servers, with DLP for outgoing messages filtering Excel, Word, PDF and image files (archived or hidden). This document describes how to install Scrollout F1 from scratch, on a fresh Ubuntu Server or Debian. 

The installation is easy. Even if you are a newbie in Linux there is not much room for errors.

Download And Install Ubuntu Server or Debian

First, a clean Ubuntu operating system or Debian must be installed. Do not use an existing system on which you have installed other applications and services like an existing web server and email server. The installation process will overwrite the existing settings.

Download latest stable version of Ubuntu Server. Usually, it is called LTS (Long Term Support). It is free and you can find it here:
http://www.ubuntu.com/download/server

For Debian, use http://www.debian.org/distrib/netinst#smallercd. The installation process is almost identical to Ubuntu, but lighter and faster.

Chose the right version for you: 32 bit or 64 bit. Normally, if you have multicore processors and lots of GB of RAM you should go for 64 bit version, but if you are not sure download the 32 bit version. It will work on 64 bit too.

Install Ubuntu Server, Alternate or Debian.

Important note: When you are asked to configure network connection please make sure you input the correct settings. You need a working Internet connection in order to download and install Scrollout F1.

 

Download And Install Scrollout F1

Login to the Ubuntu terminal console using your user and password. For Debian use "root" account.
Make sure your internet connection is working properly and type the following commands:

apt-get install sudo -y
sudo –i
cd /tmp
wget http://sourceforge.net/projects/scrollout/files/update/scrolloutf1.tar/download -O scrolloutf1.tar
tar -xvf scrolloutf1.tar
chmod 755 /tmp/scrolloutf1/www/bin/*
/tmp/scrolloutf1/www/bin/install.sh

Press-hit ENTER every time you are asked to answer a question. By doing this you will select the default recommended answer.

When done, the Graphic User Interface URL address and default Admin password will be displayed.

In case you'll decide to uninstall:

/var/www/bin/uninstall.sh
