From: seek3r Thanks to Joesph Engo for starting phpGroupWare (at the time called webdistro) and the core of this HOWTO.
- Thanks to all the developers and users who contribute to making phpGroupWare such a success.
- Grabbing a copy from CVS is not as hard as it may seem. You will need to have a cvs client installed.
- Then try the following commands:
- export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@cvs.phpgroupware.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phpgroupware' export CVSROOT=':pserver:anonymous@cvs.phpgroupware.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phpgroupware' Chapter 11. Using AddressbookChapter 10. Using Addressbook

You may have to get required permissions to do this. Contact your system - administrator if you dont have the permission to write to your webserver directory. -

You will need PHP compiled and installed on your system. You will also need MySQL, PostgreSQL or Oracle setup. -
If you are planning on using the email system, you will need to have an IMAP server installed and IMAP support compiled into PHP, or a POP3 server installed. - You can have it installed as an Apache module or CGI mode for other web servers, the Apache module is preferred. +> You will need PHP compiled and installed on your system.

phpGroupWare is a web based groupware application that includes integrated features such as - email, calendar, todo list, address book, file manager, headline news, and a trouble ticket system. - It should run on all systems where PHP is installed and has access to a SQL server (MySQL ,PostgreSQL or Oracle). -
You should use it if you would like a powerful groupware system that can be access from anywhere on the Internet. -
For companies with a distributed user base, it's an ideal solution. Oh, and did I mention that its FREE? -
