SME Server:Download
The Koozali SME Server project
The Koozali Foundation Inc. is a nonprofit corporation that governs the open source Koozali SME Server project. Koozali SME Server is a stable, secure and easy to use/manage linux server that provides common server functionalities out of the box. Many open source contributions are available that can extend the default server functionality making Koozali SME Server an even more powerful and flexible business server solution. Thousands of Koozali SME Severs have been deployed as real or virtual servers and in the cloud to serve many small to medium enterprises, and this number is growing day by day. The Koozali SME Server is free to use but it takes a lot of effort and money to develop, make, and maintain. We therefore ask you for your considerations.

Koozali Foundation Inc. together with its community hosted at https://contribs.org is a collaborative effort of volunteers. You too can contribute to the development and continuity of the Koozali SME Server project as described on our volunteering page.

NetInstall
When installing the netinstall ISO, you will be asked some basic questions (check the media, languages, keyboard layout etc.), followed by the question for the location of installation files. The options are:
- CD/DVD
- Hard drive
- NFS
- URL
When you select the URL option the required URL is:
http://mirror.contribs.org/releases/9/smeos/x86_64
The URL must be adapted to the specific SME Server version and architecture. (overview of versions and architecture).
Zsync
When updates become available you will be able to update a previous version of an iso using zsync, run the command from the same directory as your existing iso. zsync uses a control file to determine whether any blocks in the file are already known to the downloader, and only downloads the new blocks. If you don't have a previous iso zsync is still a good option, it will recover an interrupted download.
To install ZSync you need to ensure you have the Dag repositories enabled. See here: Dag, then issue the following commands:
yum install zsync --enablerepo=dag
Reboot not required
cp smeserver-8.1-i386.iso smeserver-8.1.1-i386.iso [if you have a previous .iso] zsync http://smeserver.bhs.mirrors.ovh.net/smeserver/releases/8.1/iso/i386/smeserver-8.1-i386.iso.zsync
Upgrades
To upgrade your existing SME Server to SME Server 9.0, see Upgrading
