The version for Linux is distributed only in
a separate RPM and DEB packages (their names start with
kerio-connect-admin). It is necessary to install
Administration Console both at the server (for local
administration) and on hosts from which remote administration will be
performed.
To install Administration Console, use this command:
rpm -i <installation_package_name>
e.g. rpm -i kerio-connect-admin-7.0.2-573-linux.rpm
If Administration Console is already installed, you can upgrade to the newer version using the following command:
rpm -U <installation_package_name>
To uninstall Administration Console, use this command:
rpm -e kerio-connect-admin
Administration Console installation or upgrade is performed with the following command:
# dpkg -i <installation_file_name>
e.g. dpkg -i kerio-connect-admin-7.0.2-573-linux.deb
To uninstall Administration Console, use this command:
apt-get remove <installation_file_name>
i.e.: apt-get remove kerio-connect-admin
Administration Console is started by the
kerioadmin script. The script is stored in the
/usr/bin directory. By default, the path is set so that it
leads to this directory.
Warning: Administration
Console should always be started by this script. If the
kadmin file is started directly, it might happen that an
incorrect version of the Qt library is downloaded (or that
the library is not found) which would lead to incorrect functionality of
Administration Console.
Administration Console is installed to the
/opt/kerio/admin directory. The Administration
Console's executable file (kadmin) as well as
individual administration modules (mailadmin*) and
relevant dynamic libraries (lib*) are stored in the
directory.
Localization files (*.qm) are stored in the
translations subdirectory. Help is not available in
Linux.
Bookmarks (login data for individual servers) are saved in the
.kerio/admin subdirectory of the home directory of the
current user (there is a special set of bookmarks customized for each
user). Each bookmark is saved in a separate file. The file extensions
correspond with the application for which the bookmark refers (currently, the
only alternative available is .bkms for Kerio
Connect).
Administration Console for remote control is installed similarily as the console for the local control on server (see above).
You can download the installation packet of Administration
Console for Kerio Connect from the
Integration page
(http(s)://server_name/integration/). Thus you get the
Administration Console version corresponding to the
version of your server.
