• A hardware or virtual server that can install Ubuntu 8.10 Server

Edition (64 bit).

• At least 2 GB of RAM and a 2 GHz Dual Core processor.

• An active external internet connection for the DPPS server.
• The server administrator must have operational knowledge of Linux based

operating systems, particularly Ubuntu.

You must have the following information:

• The workgroup/domain name used in your network environment.
• The Realm used in your network environment.
• The domain name you want to use for the system that will be hosting

the server.

• The Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) for the server you wish to
