/With full support to Active Directory and MySQL and PostgreSQL
databases, JeguePanel comes to it’s 2.0 version bringing you a lot of
management options to Gnu/Linux and Windows networks./

Organization is the key-word to reduce costs and efforts with IT. The
efficient management of servers, users, permissions and resources are
the basic level of any network environment. This is the JeguePanel goal:
be a management servers tool, specially to E-Mail and Samba Servers.

After two years of absolute success on the 1.x series, finally
JeguePanel comes to it’s 2.0 version. On it OpenLDAP isn’t mandatory
anymore to store users and it’s data. Now you can choose to use SQL
database instead. This is a regular request by JeguePanel users that
already has it’s users data in SQL databases and don’t want to migrate
to any other option like OpenLDAP. So, from now on, it’s just easy to
use JeguePanel with it. On this version you can migrate data from
Access, SQL Server or Oracle into MySQL or PostgreSQL and use JeguePanel.

The new support to Active Directory allows JeguePanel to work integrated
with Windows Servers based on this technology, synchronizing all your
users, passwords and additional data between AD and OpenLDAP. This is a
great option to companies that already has it’s network based on Windows
Server and want use an E-mail Server powered by Gnu/Linux.

It’s simple and friendly interface make easy manage any number of users
and deeply decrease the management work. You don’t need to lost hours
making replications between servers and trying to find out who is this
or that user. With few clicks in the JeguePanel web interface all the
management tasks are done quickly and easily.

JeguePanel manage more than E-mail Servers. It’s allow complete
management of Samba Servers as well. This is a new step to get the
wanted management efficiency of the network resources and permissions,
totally integrated with Gnu/Linux and Windows Servers.

Take a look in all the news and bug fixes of this version below:

      * New installer with Ajax to make easiest to chose and configure
your options.
      * The default JeguePanel language, on this version, is Enlgish.
All others languages are supported trough gettext.
      * Messages disclaimer. Now JeguePanel managers can easily include
any text in the bottom of all messages sent by the E-Mail Server.
      * Active Directory support. From now on, Windows 2003 Servers and
JeguePanel with OpenLDAP can be synchronized. To make it possible we use
an agent thats run on the W2K3 side, sending data to the OpenLDAP and
vice-versa. This agents are used to synchronize users and passwords.
More data can be synchronized by the new jpsync script, developed in
Perl, that runs trough cron and compare and synchronize any changes.
      * SQL database. From the version 2.0, JeguePanel get free from
OpenLDAP and offers the option to use SQL as users, domains and
passwords database. The only case when OpenLDAP became mandatory is when
you want to use the integration with OpenLDAP.
      * New interface to setup return error message, when some e-mail is
deferred by virus infection.
      * From now on, disabled users by full quota, don’t get only
disabled to receive new messages, but to send too.
      * OpenLDAP only accept text with accents using base 64 encryption.
This method has been rewritten to avoid some errors in the text fields.
      * Improved Egroupware support. Now JeguePanel has an option to
add/remove applications to many users at once.
      * The jpr.pl script, responsible for the Postfix reports don’t run
trough cron anymore. It’s has been rewritten and it’s a daemon that
still reading the mail.log file and collecting all the needed data. It’s
became a very lightweight tool.
      * The add domains function has been changed to improve it’s
performance. Now it’s uses the postconf command to change the main.cf file.

      * Improved ClamAV support. The command clamscan has been replaced
by the clamdscan. This little change make the virus scanning much more
lightweight.
