Zenoss behind Apache proxy

Posted on by Gonzalo Escarrá

Pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to set the URI for Zenoss to work behind an Apache mod_proxy setup, I figured out the solution is to use a rewrite rule on the virtual host within Apache. Here’s the rule I’m using:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^/(.*) http://internalserver:8080/VirtualHostBase/http/externalserver:80/VirtualHostRoot/$1 [L,P]

Of course, change “internalserver” and “externalserver” for your hosts, and “externalserver” should match your ServerName definition in the virtual host config.

Zimbra and Funambol integration

Posted on by Gonzalo Escarrá

So, since I recently wiped my ESXi box and installed CentOS 5.3 on it instead, I went with Zimbra for my e-mail solution, with LDAP authentication, and I have to say so far it works amazing… but e-mail push is a feature i’ll be missing on my phone…

I found the solution to be something called Funambol. It is similar to what BES is for Exchange or Notes. It provides a sync interface for end devices into Zimbra, or Exchange, or others. I’ve been spending the weekend configuring Funambol and Zimbra to see each other, and my phone to sync with it.

Here’s the guide i’ve been following: http://wiki.zimbra.com/index.php?title=Open_Source_Mobile_Calendar_and_Contact_Synchronization
