Sir, Thanks for the reply. Iam looking for the zentyal to be installed on existing ubuntu server. My doubt is ; Is it possible to install the zentyal on the already installed ubuntu server or please suggest me is it recommended to install the zentyal as a guest on virtual box.
Sir, Iam aware zentyal can be installed on vitrual box but is it possible to install and configure the zentyal on the host system itself i,e on the existing ubuntu server. Please suggest.
Why do you want to install zentyal as guest? why don't you configure Ubuntu itself for samba domain controller (pdc),dhcp,dns,ftp, squid etc and also install windows 2003/2008 as a guest OS...Please read the review of Zentyal http://www.theregister.co.uk/2010/11/18/zentyal_review/page3.html

Thanks for the reply, Yes sir will install the zentyal as guest but please suggest me will it be fine in the production environment. Please suggest.
What I meant in my earlier post was I don't recommend Zentyal as guest on Ubuntu. Ubuntu itself can be configured for Samba, dhcp, dns, ftp, Squid etc..
