Summary

This tutorial describes how to create a FreeBSD Jail with ezjail, and install the latest iRedMail in Jail.

Notes:

  • This tutorial was tested with FreeBSD 9 and the latest ports tree, but it should work on FreeBSD 8 and 10 too.
  • All backends available in iRedMail (OpenLDAP, MySQL, PostgreSQL) were tested, work like a charm. :)


Requirements

  • iRedMail-0.8.2 or later releases.
  • Port sysutils/ezjail for FreeBSD.

Preparation

  • Prepare IP address used for Jail. Here we use internal IP address 172.16.122.244 for example. We created an alias IP address on network interface em0, so we have below setting in /etc/rc.conf for this IP address:
File: /etc/rc.conf
ifconfig_em0_alias0="inet 172.16.122.244 netmask 255.255.255.0"

Create Jail and install iRedMail

  • Install ezjail:
Terminal:
# cd /usr/ports/sysutils/ezjail/
# make install clean
  • Add below setting in /etc/rc.conf:
File: /etc/rc.conf
# Start ezjail while system start up
ezjail_enable="YES"

# Set security.jail.allow_raw_sockets=1 to allow PostgreSQL initial database.
jail_sysvipc_allow="YES"
  • Rebooting system is required after changing /etc/rc.conf.
Terminal:
# reboot
  • After system start up, create the base jail that all jails we created later will use:
Terminal:
# ezjail-admin install -p
  • create Jail for domain name mx.example.com, bound to internal IP address 172.16.122.244. All files are placed under /jails/mx.example.com:
Terminal:
# ezjail-admin create -r /jails/mx.example.com mx.example.com 172.16.122.244
  • Start Jail.
Terminal:
# /usr/local/etc/rc.d/ezjail restart
  • List all Jails:
Terminal:
# ezjail-admin list
STA JID  IP               Hostname                          Root Directory
--- ---- ---------------- --------------------------------- ------------------------
DS  1    172.16.122.244   mx.example.com                    /jails/mx.example.com

We can now enter this Jail:

Terminal:
# ezjail-admin console mx.example.com
  • In Jail, update /etc/resolv.conf with valid DNS server address(es). For example:
File: Jail: /etc/resolv.conf
nameserver 172.16.122.2
  • In Jail, install binary package bash. Required by iRedMail.
Terminal:
Jail # pkg_add -r bash-static
  • In Jail, Start iRedMail installer with your Jail ip address:
Terminal:
Jail # bash
bash # cd /root/iRedMail/
bash # LOCAL_ADDRESS='172.16.122.244' bash iRedMail.sh

That's all.
