Did you ever try NethServer ?

Installed it in a VM. It has a valid IP address, but I can't access the web interface?
Works fine here. Port 980, SSL.

blin
Fourth menu item down on the main menu. Open up "domain accounts" and it has you set up the domain.
-
@scottalanmiller On the public demo the 4th option doesn't show the advanced functionality.
And it appears to only be for joining a domain, not creating one.

not following any of the links, just read the thread, but this sounds like what ClearOS tried to do.
I am not a fan of magic all in one boxes in general. But once you need to build up something to replace a Windows DC, that thing generally has all these components.
I would leave the PBX off, though I do like the sounds of a full faxing solution because that is not easily possible in FreePBX.

Of course but we're crazy and we want to do it better

You're not obligated to put all those stuff in "one magic box" bear in mind that @nethserver is extremely modular so you can just install one of our modules on each server that you sets up

NethServer already uses Hylafax for a full faxing solution supporting IAX virtual modems and "real" fax modems

Well ClearOS crashed hard after version 5.2 years ago. So if you have something solid, I will certainly pay attention to it.
-
@JaredBusch man, we're working hard with our thriving community to achieve that. If you trust us I promise you won't regret it

well, that sounds even better I'll test NethServer in my lab sooner than expected.
I can't wait to know what the outcome of that will be.

@scottalanmiller @Reid-Cooper @IRJ @DustinB3403 @triple9 @StrongBad @aaronstuder @JaredBusch did you try NethServer finally? What are your feelings? Very curious
-
@alefattorini I looked at it briefly, I hadn't dug into it very much.
Thanks for following up!
-
@DustinB3403 My pleasure, we're working hard on that and more hand on deck the better

Not yet. It is on my project list for our Bundy lab.

@alefattorini His computer lab.

@alefattorini I tried NethServer, it seems really nice, very polished. I liked OpenVPN part a lot, though I would like to see self-service portal for end users, where they could download ovpn file (or have I missed it?)
I had one problem, not sure if I'm to blame. I wanted to setup server as AD DC, and things went really bad. Installation was stuck in the middle, and I could not stop it or do anything with it. I didn't have time to investigate what happened, but I plan to do it later. -
@triple9 I gave setting up an AD DC on Nethserver a shot tonight myself. Had some issues right off the bat. From the documentation page:
Samba machine needs an IP address in a green network, different from the machine one. It also requires a bridge on the green interface. If needed, this bridge is created automatically.
I could do one manually on CentOS with less hassle than this
-
@travisdh1 I can't get your point, you're able to setup a Samba4 DC on CentOS, managed by webinterface with one click?
@triple9 did you check your connectivity? Check the log to look up some errors
-
@alefattorini the problems started when I tried to add bridge. Server lost connectivity, and I had to remove bridge manually to get it back online. I'll try with fresh install and see if it happens again.
-
@alefattorini what's more funny, I could update system, and perform other tasks. But AD DC installation was stuck at nearly 50% and would not move from that point
