Citadel Virtual Appliance for VMware

• Do you want to take the Citadel system for a “test drive” without committing hardware to the evaluation?

• Would you like to have a complete, integrated solution, with email and groupware, spam protection, and virus protection all pre-integrated?

• Are you interested in deploying Citadel into a Microsoft Windows environment?

If you answered “yes” to any of the above questions, then the Citadel virtual appliance may be the right solution for you. It consists of a pre-built system which can be run inside any VMware product, several of which are free. The Citadel virtual appliance contains a preconfigured Linux host, with complete Citadel system (including WebCit). Spam protection using SpamAssassin and virus protection using ClamAV are already installed and integrated into the system, and configured to receive automatic updates.
