Additional Tasks

  1. Set up printing for PDF files if automated printing desired. This is typically done using CUPS.
  2. Set up DNS records. If the server will not be using an email relay, make sure an SPF record for the server is in DNS.
  3. Set up email. If the server is sending email directly, then correct DNS entries are all that is needed. If using an existing email relay, then set up the relay. The easiest way to do this is using PostFix. The are many examples on the web of how to do this. Test email by sending an email from the server to a G mail account. If the email is accepted, check the headers to make sure SPF passes.
  4. Make arrangements with a Credit Card processor that is supported by BillMax. See https://www.billmax.com/partners/. Other processors in Canada may be available.
  5. Set up backups. See Backups, Redundancy and Archiving.
